The air in Metro Manila could be cancerous
A research study finds an alarming link between air pollution and breast cancer–especially among frequent commuters
More News from Evangeline C. Santiago
It has been reported that the Philippines has one of the highest incidences of breast cancer in Asia.
A paper written in 2009 by a group led by Adriano Laudico of the Philippine General Hospital, and published in the Asian Pacific Journal for Cancer Prevention, confirmed that the Philippines has one of the highest incidences of breast cancer in Asia.
The paper also showed that breast cancer incidence in seven cities in Metro Manila was much higher than in 14 cities and municipalities in Rizal province.
As a result of this report, this author decided to revisit the two surveys we had conducted in 2001 and in 2009, which were intended to establish the concentration of certain airborne toxic substances in representative sites in Metro Manila, and to try to correlate the results with the findings in the above cited paper.
What are these invisible toxins?
The particles emitted by thousands of motor vehicles plying the streets of Metro Manila every day contribute to a large extent to the smoky haze of the metropolis.
Commuters using jeepneys, tricycles, motorcycles and other non-airconditioned modes of transport have taken for granted seeing black particles trapped in their nostrils when they clean their nose, and blackish shampoo suds when they wash their hair at the end of the day.
Unfortunately, more than the dust trapped in our noses and hair, the pollutants that manage to reach our lungs pose a greater health risk.
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are cancer-causing pollutants that are released by the combustion process in motor vehicles.
The high temperature and high pressure conditions inside vehicle engines are conducive to the production of PAHs. Some of them attach to dust particles and are usually safely captured by physical filters of our respiratory system. However, the rest stay in gaseous form and in very small particles and are able to reach the lungs, easily breaching the hairy nasal filters. Eventually, they also reach the circulatory system as well, through the alveoli of the lungs.
Destroying DNA structure
Why should we be concerned with PAHs?
Many studies have shown that PAHs such as Benz(a)anthracene, Benzo(b)fluoranthene, Dimethylbenzanthracene, Benzo(a)pyrene, Indeno(1,2,3–cd) pyrene and Dibenz(a,h)anthracene produce cancer in animals.
These PAHs form metabolites in the body that can directly destroy the normal structure of DNA and subsequently cause the formation of abnormal proteins and cancerous tumors.
In humans, these PAHs are considered most probable carcinogens based on the evidence of carcinogenicity in animals, and the probability that similarity in metabolic processes involved in dealing with PAHs exists in humans and animals.
The current assessment of the health significance of exposure to PAHs determines the health risk of exposure to the traditionally used marker substance Benzo(a)pyrene.
Studies by the World Health Organization show that there is a probability of one in 10,000 that a person will have cancer if he is exposed to ambient air with 1 nanogram (ng)/m3 Benzo(a)pyrene during his lifetime.
The relationship of exposure to PAHs and genetic damage in breast tissues and breast cancer was investigated by Frederica Perera and her group from Mailman School of Public Health in New York.
In a paper published in Carcinogenesis in 2000, the researchers found that the higher levels of DNA-PAH adducts in breast cancer tissues, reflecting that individual exposure and susceptibility to PAH may play a role in breast cancer. The possible modes of action of PAHs in breast cancer were investigated by Martina Pliskova and her group from the Veterinary Research Institute in the Czech Republic.
In their paper published in Toxicological Sciences in 2004, metabolites of Benzo(a)pyrene, and Benzo(a)anthracene were found to induce cell proliferation of breast cancer cells, both by activation of the estrogen receptor that expresses cell proliferation, and by causing genetic damage to the DNA damage repair checkpoints that eventually result in the proliferation of DNA-damaged cells.
In a 2001 survey of PAHs in ambient air particulates conducted by this author in four sites along the stretch of Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (Edsa), in two industrial sites and in three residential areas within Metro Manila, the concentrations of Benzo(a)pyrene (1.2-10.6 ng/m3) detected in all the sampling sites exceeded 1 ng/m3; this indicates that lifetime exposure to ambient air at most of the study sites could pose higher risk of more than one in 10,000 to cancer.
The additional potential toxicity from three other carcinogenic PAHs detected in these sites further increases the risk of the exposed population to cancer.
Continuously exposed
A survey of gaseous-form PAHs in ambient air in three residential villages in Metro Manila in 2009 showed that village residents are continuously exposed to PAHs that can pass the nasal filtering system and directly reach the circulatory system.
The residents are exposed to the combined concentration of the PAHs at 52-76 ng/m3 during the rainy season in August to October, and at 83-167 ng/m3 at the onset of the dry season in November to December (Santiago E. and Cayetano M, 2009, Atmospheric Environment 41, 438–47).
These gaseous PAHs have not been shown to directly cause mutations in animal studies, but have been implicated as cancer-promoting agents. PAHs can induce the production of some enzymes in receptor cells that promote the formation of free radicals and bioactive molecules in a living system.
In effect, the promoting agents induce the production of substances that can alter the normal expressions of some genes, which can lead to mutations.
Commuters and residents of Metro Manila breathe air with a toxin concentration that exposes them to many health risks, including cancer. Studies on breast cancer have provided evidence linking exposure to PAHs to genetic damage, cell proliferation and breast cancer. It is possible that long-term exposure to high concentrations of PAHs could be a common risk factor for the high incidence of breast cancer in Metro Manila.
The author hopes that the science-based information in this article will serve as a wake-up call for everyone to work together to reduce vehicular emissions of toxic PAHs in the Metro Manila environment, and to urge our health, economic and environment managers to give attention to management of the risk from involuntary exposure of the population to carcinogens in air.
Air pollution poses a present and real danger to the citizenry that cannot, in conscience, be ignored for long!

Q Table BBQ now open in Northglenn
Seoul BBQ's sibling restaurant, Q Table BBQ, is now open
Mark Manger
A month ago, we reported that James and Lily Kwon, owners of Aurora's Seoul BBQ, 2080 South Havana Street, were set to open a new Korean restaurant in Northglenn, Q Table BBQ, 311 West 104th Street, in October.
That spot held its grand opening last Friday and is now open for business.
When I reviewed Seoul BBQ, I noted that it was a peaceful place, free of the gimmickry that often characterizes Korean barbecue spots. With Q Table, the Kwons sought to emulate that, providing their cuisine in upscale surroundings and removing the showmanship even further by offering a Korean buffet.
The restaurant is open daily from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and 4 to 8:30 p.m. For more information, dial 720-289-2893.

Still what I want in my life is to be willing to be dazzled --
ABOUT ME: If we are indeed what we eat, I am approximately 33% bacon, 67% cheese, and 100% dark chocolate. Math is my strong suit. I'm Asian. If we are a reflection of our friends and family, I am deeply compassionate and passionate, social justice-y, loyal, emotive, hilarious, artistic, intelligent, connected. My community is pretty kick ass. Hella blessed. I'm a natural extrovert and I cherish time alone. I'm short and I love to play volleyball. I'm an environmentalist and I love meat. I'm Filipina and I don't own a Magic Mic, but I sure do love me some karaoke. I am constantly striving for that elusive balance and breath as all things rise and all things pass.For work (although this often feels like play), I run a national training program on storytelling and story-changing. I love what I do, but it's not all that I am. Everything in my life is about growth and love. All kinds of growth. All kinds of love. Holy shitballs, that's the hippiest thing I've ever written. WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR: At this point, I'm looking for a partner in creative crime/life shenanigans. I'm looking for someone who has a pretty amazeballs life and strong sense of self, who is willing to do some serious venn diagram merging of mega-awesomness, but not complete overlap (because you know, we should be our own beautiful individual selves). That being said, I don't mind meeting cool and down folks on the journey. This piece of a poem was a placeholder, but I kind of love it, so I'm leaving it: "Still, what I want in my life is to be willing to be dazzled – to cast aside the weight of facts and maybe even to float a little above this difficult world. I want to believe I am looking into the white fire of a great mystery. I want to believe that the imperfections are nothing – that the light is everything — that it is more than the sum of each flawed blossom rising and fading. And I do." - Mary Oliver, "The Ponds

It is one of the classic Philippine folk music that celebrates the joy and simplicity of Filipino folk life.
One of the oldest and most classic Philippine folk song is Bahay Kubo (Nipa Hut). It is traditionally taught to most Filipino children at a young age, usually by their mother. Even in schools, this famous folk song is customarily performed during "Philippine Folk Week" celebrations.
It is one of the classic Philippine folk songs that celebrates the joy and simplicity of Filipino folk life.
"Bahay Kubo" composed by national artist Felipe Padilla de Leon.
[English Translation]
My Humble Hut
My humble hut
may look tiny,
but the veggies around
it, sure are many.
Yam beans and eggplants,
wing'd beans and peanuts,
string, hyacinth and lima beans.
Winter melon and loofah,
bottl' gourd, squash, et cetera.
There is more, amiga,
radish, mustard, yeah!
Onions, tomatoes
garlic and ginger.
If you look all around,
sesame seeds abound!
Bahay kubo, kahit munti,
ang halaman duon ay sari-sari.
Singkamas at talong,
Sigarilyas at mani.
Sitaw, bataw, patani.
Kundol, patola, upo't kalabasa.
At saka meron pa,
Labanos, mustasa.
Sibuyas, kamatis,
Bawang at luya.
Sa paligid-ligid ay puno ng linga.

Hello all!
I recorded this sample today, 10-11-2012 in LA, CA, USA.
I needed a radio tuning sample and I wasn't pleased with the ones I found, so I recorded one with my Zoom H2!
I realized I actually didn't have a radio, so I went to a thrift store and bought one for $4.34.
It sounds perfect for what I need.
This sample is in 44.1khz, 24bit.
Enjoy, comment, and download!
- mojomills
Perfect thank you !
Perfect for what I needed! Thanks for posting
Just the right intervals I was looking for.
exactly the sound I needed. Thanks!!
this is perfect

Code §465 limits deductions for taxpayers in business and investment activities to the amount the taxpayer has "at risk" in the venture. Amounts of owners that are contributed to capital are generally at risk. Also at risk are amounts that are borrowed by the venture, and for which the taxpayer is personally liable for repayment or has pledged property as security for repayment.
However, Code §465(b)(4) provides that the taxpayer is NOT at risk for amounts for which the taxpayer is 'protected against loss through nonrecourse financing, guarantees, stop loss agreements, or other similar arrangements." A recent Chief Counsel Advice explores this limit in context of an LLC owner that guarantees debt of an LLC.
The first issue raised in the CCA was whether the guarantor's rights of indemnification against the LLC borrower protected the guarantor against loss under Code §465(h)(4). That is, under state law, a guarantor who has to pay is entitled to be indemnified for the payment made against the original borrowing party. Here, the Chief Counsel's office recognized that this indemnification right was meaningless since if the LLC did not pay the debt it would be because it had no assets to do so. Therefore, notwithstanding the indemnification right, the guarantor was the 'payer of last resort in the worst-case scenario' since it could not recoup its loss from payment on the guaranty from the LLC obligor.
The second issue was a little different. Here, the guarantor had other co-guarantors. If the lender came after the guarantor and collected the full amount from the guarantor, the guarantor would have rights of contribution from its co-guarantors. Therefore, applying the worst-case scenario, the guarantor would not be on the hook for 100% of the loan amount. Therefore, the guarantor's at risk amount, for purposes of taking deductions, is limited to the amount that the guarantor could not collect from its co-guarantors.

Coming to the rescue of 11 workmen of a hotel run by Tamil Nadu Tourism Development Corporation (TTDC), the Madras High Court on Tuesday directed the authorities to confer permanent status to them.
The management of the Hotel filed a petition challenging the July 14, 2011 order of the Inspector of Labour instructing to confirm the the daily wage workers. They working there for several years. Having worked for more than 480 days, these workers claimed for conferment of their posts.
Dismissing the petition by the TTDC against the order of the Inspector of Labour, Justice N Paul Vasanthakumar "the order of the Inspector of Labour has been passed by virtue of oowers conferred under the Tamil Nadu Industrial Establishments (Conferment of Permanent Status of Workmen) Act, 1981, which excludes all other enactments while conferring permanency under section 3(1) of the act." "The intent of Legislature for enacting the said Statue is to be borne in mind while appreciating the orders passed by the Inspector of Labour under the said beneficial labour welfare legislation," the Judge said while concurring with the submissions made by S Sathiachandran, the counsel for the workers.
The Judge while rejecting the arguments of senior counsel of TTDC that the workmen were not having required qualifications, in his order said "if any of the workman is not able to perform his duties which are technical in nature which requires special skill, it is open to the management to engage them in appropriate post in which he is having skill and experience and no workman shall be denied permanency on the ground ofwant of qualification."

Brisbane Roar's Paartalu intent on continuing home unbeaten run
Brisbane Roar midfielder Erik Paartalu is determined to keep the four-match unbeaten run at Suncorp Stadium alive when the Melbourne Heart come to town on Saturday.
The Roar have won two and drawn one at the venue so far this season and along with their January 30 win over Sydney FC have taken their tally to four matches without a loss at home.
Paartalu said it was important to maintain a good record at home but was wary of a very dangerous Heart outfit.
"We've got to be positive and keep playing our football and let teams worry about us when they come to our home ground," Paartalu said.
"They've got quite a few good players and some experienced heads but we've got experienced boys as well who have played for the Socceroos so we can't forget that.
"They've got (John) Aloisi back and he scored on the weekend so they pose a threat up front.
"We'll try and break them down with our passing game like we have done with other teams.
"Hopefully we can finish off our chances and get a few goals in."

Food is delicious. We have been eating there over a year, about once per week. Everything we have ordered has been super!
PS: Never got bugs in our food.
December 30, 20101.0
I ordered some food for my husband, my daughter and myself, and when the food came i served the rice for all 3 of us, and in the middle of eating I saw something that @ first I thought could have been the tail of a shrimp, but on closer inspection, I saw that It was a bug. It had been cooked with the rice and had the almost the same color as the rice. Right when I saw this I took my daughter's food, and saw the wing of a bug sticking out of her mouth, (she's 2 years old) so I made her spit it out, and it was another bug. I called up there and told them, and they were nonchalant about it, and they were giving me an attitude, like I was wrong to call them and tell them about the bugs in their food. And the manager even told me that it's not a big deal. So all I have to say is DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT, order their food.
It had bugs in it!!!

The bountiful Batiquitos: A lagoon worth walking
NORTH COUNTY -- If you have traveled the Interstate 5 corridor for more than a few minutes, you have passed them. If you have admired the bird life that swells and soars along the many miles of sun-bathed coastline, you have known them. They are San Diego County's watery connection between land and sea.
Our lagoons.
They are more than just brackish waters harboring mud and pickle weed. They are rich depositories of marine life -- amphibians, reptiles, insects, mammals of all kinds -- and the original home to countless American Indians.
They exist in a constant state of change, their water volume ebbing and flowing with each new tide, their appearance regulated by the comings and goings of migrating birds.
San Diego Countyís coastline is punctuated by several major lagoons, all of which have distinctive characteristics that are supportive to their habitat. They are nestled between Del Mar and Oceanside. One of the finest examples of saltwater lagoons on the West Coast is Batiquitos.
Teeming with life
It is thought the name was derived from the regional Mexican word "batiqui," which referred to a shallow dirt trough used as a watering hole. To the untrained eye, the Batiquitos Lagoon might appear to be just that -- a sticky slough where more than 185 species of birds gather to nest and fish.
But look just below the surface, and you will spy leopard sharks patrolling the shores. Walk along the sandy banks where trap-door spiders dwell, holed up in their hidden fortresses. Glance skyward where jumbles of heron nests stitch the eucalyptus trees in a patchwork of twigs and reeds. There are traces of middens dotting the shores; more than 200 of the refuse heaps from cultures long gone have been discovered so far.
Above and below, a fantastic and often unseen world invites exploration. Lace up your imaginary hiking boots and take a walk with me, and we will discover just a few of the hidden treasures of Batiquitos.
First, a bit of history
Before we begin our trek, picture this place as it looked 10,000 years ago. The ocean to the west of Batiquitos was 400 feet lower then. Frequent seismic activity oscillated across the land and pushed parts of it ever higher. Many of the inland "mesas" for which San Diego County is famous were sandy beach terraces at that time. Along our coastline, the ocean waves were breaking much farther out than they do today. The sea was shallow.
But a major change was beginning, and as the Earth's temperature began to climb, the ice sheets that blanketed parts of North America started to melt. The ocean crept higher, and fingers of water pushed slowly into the little valleys that dot our present coastline. The result was Batiquitos Lagoon.
Much has happened since then. In fact, the creeks entering the lagoon have been delivering and depositing silt along its banks for centuries. By all rights, the lagoon should be long gone as this natural process of ebbing and flowing has altered the terrain.

Press release from Business Wire
Navy Federal Credit Union Improves Services for Military Families With CA Technologies Solutions; Cuts Costs

 Company Increases DB2 for z/OS Transaction Throughput by 30 Percent to Improve Availability and Performance of Member Services

Tuesday, July 30, 2013
Navy Federal Credit Union Improves Services for Military Families With CA Technologies Solutions; Cuts Costs09:00 EDT Tuesday, July 30, 2013
ISLANDIA, N.Y. (Business Wire) -- CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that Navy Federal Credit Union, the world's largest credit union, relies on mainframe solutions from CA Technologies to improve member services through significantly improved use of DB2 for z/OS.
Navy Federal needed to ensure long-term quality of service due to its rapidly growing membership and extended global presence. At the same time, the credit union had to minimize costs to allow its services to remain highly competitive and attractive to military personnel and their families.
Like many financial organizations, much of Navy Federal's support cost is dedicated to achieving a high availability, high performance infrastructure for storing and processing customer data and transactions. At the core of Navy Federal's service is its IBM mainframe, which runs DB2 databases as well as a transaction server.
Navy Federal selected CA Technologies Database Management for DB2 performance solutions—CA Detector® for z/OS DB2 and CA Subsystem Analyzer for DB2 for z/OS—to improve the performance and availability of its DB2 databases. CA Subsystem Analyzer helps the company manage CPU utilization, disk and memory, while CA Detector helps ensure throughput, availability and performance are optimized to meet the service expectations of Navy Federal's members.
"We had an application that ran once an hour, which suddenly started to run more frequently, creating a spike in CPU utilization," recalls Ed Vetock, Manager, Data Management, Navy Federal Credit Union. "Previously we would have had to use an expensive performance trace to find the source of the problem. With CA Detector, we were able to find the problem in less than 10 minutes and take corrective action before it affected our members—and at far less cost."
"CA Technologies solutions have met our technical objectives," said Vetock. "We've reduced our Distributed Data Facility (DDF) CPU utilization footprint by quickly identifying tuning opportunities. Because we're consuming fewer system resources, we've seen a significant increase in transactional throughput to service our membership."
"Customers like Navy Federal need to substantially improve service while also reducing cost to meet their customers' requirements," said Michael Madden, general manager, Mainframe. "CA Technologies mainframe solutions, including the DB2 suite, enable companies to identify and solve problems fast to provide exceptional service to their customers."
About Navy Federal
Navy Federal Credit Union is the world's largest credit union, with $54 billion in assets, over 4 million members, 229 branches, and a workforce of over 11,000 employees worldwide. The credit union serves all Department of Defense and Coast Guard active duty, civilian, and contractor personnel and their families.

A bit disturbing at first, then funny, then kinda cute. Then disturbing again.
I wouldn't say gross. More like it's painful to watch. At first because it seems so, disgusting for her, then as you feed her more ...
Gotta say, I felt bad for Elena the whole game. But that just made saving that much better :D
I think the most disturbing scene for me was Elena's monster transformation when she's in the courtyard looking out the window. I didn't see it until I got all the endings and started looking for all the scenes for the 100% completion. I didn't mind Elena eating beast flesh, I ate more gross stuff than that :P
Am I the only one who is curious as to what the flesh tastes like?
Why does Ganon have no friends?
It's because he's such a boar.
It kinda turns me on to be honest.

When she does it normally, it doesn't bother me.
When she does it when he's nearly fully transformed it's creepy. The way she does it, is that she yanks the flesh out of Aeron's hand and takes a forceful bite out of it and then smiles... Well, I guess it makes sense, seeing as how she knows she needs to in order to NOT be a monster.

A fascinating, deftly layered look at the complex intersections of art and charity, reality and perception, Waste Land follows celebrated New York artist Vik Muniz back to his native Brazil, where he'll work with outer Rio garbage-pickers on an ambitious art project. Ostensibly called to "give back" to the impoverished region from whence he came—after the magnanimous collaboration, the plan is to auction off the art as a fundraiser—Muniz finds that the individual lives he encounters are far more complex than the morbid hordes he'd expected. These "catadores" aren't faceless bottom-feeders but proud laborers who've chosen the dirty job of hand-recycling over drug-trafficking and prostitution. Fast becoming one of today's most adventurous and empathetic documentarians, director Lucy Walker (Countdown to Zero, Blindsight) wisely keeps the film several paces removed from Muniz, whether to capture footage that falls beyond the artist's scope or to subtly critique both the art- and filmmaking processes. From a studio in New York, Muniz and Walker plot a story, and then at massive landfill Jardim Gramacho, we see how they select characters to represent it. It's to their credit that the story adapts to these fiercely human characters, and that Muniz honestly contemplates his irresolvable, Slumdog Millionaire-like quandary of intervention. The resultant art and film are uncommonly moving, but Walker keeps an eye on the messy pile of life that looms beyond the frame.

Akrapovic full system report/write up
I finally put a full Akrapovic system on my '04 625smc, and thought I would share my thoughts with anyone considering the system.
Fit and finish - Same as you always hear, grade AAA. Beautiful materials, the cleanest welds I've ever seen, and absolute perfect fit - which is pretty impressive considering the number of bends and individual welds in the system. Installation was a breeze. (Hint: when removing the stock one-piece header, I found that the easiest way is to remove the bottom two subframe bolts and swing the entire subframe up and out of the way. http://www.supermotojunkie.com/image...es/thumbup.gif ) Once I figured that out, the rest of the installation only took about 1/2 an hour.
Price - High, obviously! I found the silencer on Ebay for a great price ($167), otherwise I probably wouldn't have bought it. I bought the header from Munn Racing over at www.ktmtalk.com. If you're a member they take 15% off of list. So I ended up paying about $680.00 total for the system. List for the complete system is $1,160! OUCH!
Weight - Definitely a huge improvement. I did not weigh either headers, but they felt about the same. The big improvement was in the silencer. I still need to weigh the stock one, but the titanium weighed in at 4 lb on a baby scale. Not bad for a pretty sizeable can. Overall, I would imagine the total weight savings must be near 10 lb.
Performance - Definitely good, but I don't think I have as good of a report to give as most people that install this system because I had already modified the stock exhaust (same silencer as on the SXC). I had cut open the endcap and completely removed the inner tube. I cut the exit hole to about a 2" diameter. Now that I have the full Akra system, I think it's amazing how well the modified stock system did. I believe most people installing the Akra have only removed the screens in the standard exhaust. When I cut open the stocker and rejetted there was a HUGE difference in power, and I believe that's what most people experience when switching to the Akra. There is still a definite power increase going from the cut open stocker to the Akra though. The bottom feels the same, the mid is a little stronger, and there is a huge increase in the top range.
Sound - I was used to the sound of the cut open stocker, and honestly, the Akra doesn't sound much different at all. Which is good, because it sounds amazing! I am not running the insert - it saps the sound and life out of the bike. But, it's nice to have in case I ever hit a track day where noise is restricted. The noise is not deafening without the insert. It is loud, but not ear-splitting, just a nice mellow tone. I have no problem going by cops with the gas on. It's not loud enough to get stopped for - at least not here in the Midwest.
Overall - Is it worth it? For the full $1160 list price, probably not. Even for the $680.00 that I payed, I'm on the fence. Around town, the bike feels and sounds almost exactly the same as it did before. It's not until you hit the higher revs that it really wakes up. If you do a lot of track days or racing, it may be worth the money to you. If you just ride around town, save your dough and get the stock cut open immedietely! Would I do it again? Yeah. I have to admit, I'm kind of a poser in this way. I wanted an Akra since day one. They look great, sound great, and they're supposed to be the best system available for the LC4, so I had to have it. So there you have it. Take it with a grain of salt.
One last note - I have not yet rejetted to suit the Akra, so that may be good for some more gains. I will be taking the bike to a dyno in the future (hopefully in the next 6 months) to get it dialed in. I'll post any changes after I do.
I'm no expert but I think you should jet your bike before you ride it too much. I've been told that changing the exhaust can really lean out your bike and maybe seize the top end.
Am I just a total idiot here giving bad advice? Have I been mis-informed?
Nope, you're correct and that is good advice.
I've been keeping an eye on my plug, it looks pretty good. The Akra doesn't seem to flow that much more than the cut open stock exhaust. I had rejetted to match the increased flow when I cut open the stock can. I will definitely rejet it again, but I don't believe it is critical to do so for my change.
Hey Backdrifter,
Still got that SXC exhaust? Interested in selling??
Here's a link where I posted it for sale a while ago. I was actually going to put it on Ebay soon, which I would prefer not to. PM me if you're intersted!
PS - sometimes the pictures work, sometimes they don't. If they're not up, let me know and I can email you tons of pics tomorrow.
A few pictures of the bike and the system. The last picture shows the carbon fiber Akra that I planned to use. It fits the Akra titanium header perfectly. It is now up for sale, if anyone is interested.
I like your bike :tb
Does your SXC exhaust have a spark arestor? or can one be fit?
No, it does not have a spark arrestor. Off hand, I can't think of a way to install one either. Maybe you could tack weld a screen onto the inside of the end cap, but I really doubt it would meet USFS approval! :D
Yes, nice.
That Akrapovic header/collector stuff is nice.
Please show us the taillight :D how'd you do that.
Sorry, no good straight-on pictures of the taillight. It's a combo LED unit -it acts as brake light, running light, and turn signals. I can't remember for the life of me where I got it from. I'm looking through the cycle rags trying to find the place. It was only $35.00 though, can't beat that! I'll post when I remember where I got it. From there, I just bent a piece of 304ss to mount the plate and light to, and bolted it to the under side of the fender.
Actually, I lied. I do have a couple of better pics.
Here you go!
Targa Accessories! Finally remebered. Here is there website:
You have to do some searching to find it. Search for "taillights" under the category drop down menu. I got Part No: 07-5000B for mounting to the license plate. They also have a swivel base mount one. Looks like they are $33.50.
Good luck!
Thank you for the report, good information. It looks like a very nice system. I have been considering an Akrapovic system for my XR650R but am concerned about the sound level. On the Akrapovic website they claim 98db for the XR650R system and in California we need 96 or less. I wonder if it would be a big deal and a possible problem. What's your opinion?
Hi Trailsurfer,
I don't know much about the Akra system for the XR, but I'm assuming it comes with the noise insert like mine did. If so, I would not worry about noise at all. It is very tolerable with the insert in. Even with it out it's not bad. It is loud, but because it is a mellow sound, it isn't bad.
I used to live in California (Hermosa Beach) and I would have ridden my bike with the Akra and no insert out there. You can always give it a shot unitl you get pulled over, then just start using the insert.
Hey I was wondering what main jet your running with the akro.Or what seems to make it run best. Being a cheapass I was considering just the slip on muffler w/o the header,what ya think? Also with insert on a sparky test it seems that the stick they stick in to check would hit the insert making them believe it was a sparky of course w/o a visual check,which is unlikely.Whadda think
thanks pitbulldoug

I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer. ~ Abraham Lincoln
Different beers are like different women. Some are aggressive, while others are balanced. You've got the complex and multidimensional types as well as the rich and full-bodied ones. And some are just plain fruity.
But whatever your tastes—in beer, not in women—you're sure to find something to please your palate at the Naples Beach Brewery Tour & Tasting (4110 Enterprise Avenue, Suite 217, Naples, FL 34104, phone: 239-304-8795). On the tour, you'll learn how the Brewery makes their beer. You'll get to sample all six beers they have on tap, and get full pours of your two favorites.
You can head over to these tasty tours every Friday from 4- 8 p.m. and Saturday from 3- 7p.m. The tour is $15; the samples are free.
Beers to you!

Irrational Games' next title has been announced, and it's another BioShock first-person shooter. It seems pretty similar to the original, only this time you're running around a ruined city in the sky instead of a ruined city at the bottom of the ocean.
CG trailer: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/debut ... ite/702794
Interview: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/story ... ite/702803
I've always been into the idea of flying cities, and I really liked BioShock's atmosphere, so I'll definitely keep an eye on this. I just hope they spend more time on making the game play well this time around.

Tim Phillips: The IRS as your M.D.
At the head of this beast — if it manages not to collapse under its own bureaucratic weight — would be a disgraced organization that has already gotten the creation of burdensome red tape down to a science. Now it will be entrusted with our sensitive medical information. The IRS will be there enforcing the employer insurance mandate, the individual mandate, and 45 other provisions of the law. Those include everything from determining which small businesses are eligible for tax credits to levying fees on prescription-drug manufacturers to collecting unearned-income taxes for Medicare to enforcing a tanning-bed tax.
The current IRS scandal, possibly still in its infancy, is already useful as a cautionary tale about what happens when government control increases. That power often leads to corruption. Just as every new grant or benefit the government creates opens up a new opportunity for fraud and cronyism, every new task handed to these acronym agencies can be mismanaged or used for abusive ends. We must be ever mindful not to let these agencies accumulate more power than they absolutely need.
The IRS is one of many organizations that already have tremendous power within the federal government. We should not add M.D. to their names, too. It's time for Congress to repeal the law and get the IRS out of health care.
Phillips is president of Americans for Prosperity.

Mommies that dont have everything "ready" yet
This week I'm cleaning out the fridge, which won't be a huge chore since we just moved. And washing all the covers for the baby equipment (car seat, swing, bouncer, etc.).
Then I have to pack my bag, find a blessing dress for baby girl, get a baby monitor and binkis.....now I'll stop listing things because its starting to stress me out lol.
BF.CD.BW Crunchy Momma!
~^~cp 8/11, cp 12/11~^~
BFP! Expecting a little turkey in Nov 2012!
I finished sorting all the bins and boxes in the basement, built shelves in the storage room, and stored all of my nicely organized stuff. I hired (in trade) two guys to haul the super heavy furniture around to finish off my stuff shuffle.
Everything that is "bye-bye stuff" is in the garage waiting for me to price for a yard sale, that I HAVE to do this upcoming weekend, before snow and such makes it impossible. I will take the proceeds from said yard sale, and HOPEFULLY have enough to buy a crib -second hand if I have to.
Before baby comes we have to, at a minimum, finish one room in the basement (it's framed and sheetrocked now, thank goodness, but still needs doors, trim, paint, carpet, and shelves in the closet before it is livable, and we've run out of remodeling $) We need to buy a crib, baby clothes, a carseat, and anything else baby related that we want to have...I really hope I have a killer yard sale, because that is where ALL the baby funds will be coming from.
If the room downstairs gets finished, then we'll have to move our bedroom downstairs (which we will be sharing with LO until her room is finished) and move the oldest two girls into our former bedroom. (right now our 3 girls share one small room.) and deal with all the chaos that all that stuff shuffling entails.
and of course there is the usual cleaning and whatnot...yikes. I'm in trouble.

I still have to: Finish packing the hospital bag, order crib mattress and double stroller. Install car seat bases, clean the carseat and bring bassinet and swing up from the basement to air out. Oh and raise the crib matress height.
Luckily I think that is it!
I'm slowly whittling away my "must do" list...still need to clean the car, get the carseats and install them, and buy a dresser. Those are the minimums that HAVE to be done by next weekend. All the baby clothes are washed and put away but they are in a temporary storage container that is stuffed to the max. And of course the carseats are critical.
On the "want to do" (as opposed to "must do") list:
*Get swings (I figure if I don't have them before they come I can live), another crib (was going to use just one for now but might as well get the other one) and this nursery wall border I really want
*Empty garage (We just moved and I have old furniture in there that needs to be taken away)
*Finish massive laundry project (Since we moved, every item of clothing needed to be washed, the seasonal stuff had to be switched, etc. DH and I have been working on it for a month! Almost done now, just have to put things away and donate/sell some stuff we no longer want/need)
*Garage sale/Craigslist (I went through all my DS's baby clothes that I'd been saving for years, as well as his "too small" things, took what neutral baby clothes I wanted, and now want to get rid of his old clothes, shoes, and toys and hopefully make a little money on the stuff in really good shape)
*Mommy's Day Out: I really need to get my hair done. And a mani/pedi. It will be a long time before I can do it after the girls are here so yeah...I want a day all to myself!
The "must do" list will be done this weekend. The "need to do" list the weekend after if I'm lucky enough to get that much time. That would leave me...3 days to put my feet up and try to relax before the babies come!

ugh What list?!!! LOL. We are SLOWLY getting a few things done. We had to get stuff done around the house first, since we are trying to sell it, before we could make room for the baby stuff. We finally cleaned out the guest room this weekend and bought a dresser for our DD's future toddler room that for now will be used for the new LO. So first on my list this week is put the dresser together. Then wash all the baby clothes, burp cloths etc and put them away! I have to buy a new matress pad for the bassinet and also figure out a way to remove the fabric to get it washed. This will probably mean taking the bassinet apart . Oh and buy some bassinet sheets. I will probably have to buy some sort of caddy/basket to put diapers in. I would love to just use DD's room since she has the dresser with changing pad all set up but I need to seperate all the diaper stuff b/c I can't go in her room in the middle of the night or during nap time. So I think our house is going to be littered with diaper caddies LOL. And that is all just this week! We are waiting til the very end to get out the baby swing, bouncy etc. since we want the house to look as nice as possible for showings. As for my hospital bag, I have a feeling I will be packing it while Im in labor lol.
ETA: new DD will sleep in our room for the first 6 months, so Im still trying to figure out if Im going to use the bassinet or use our PnP that comes with a diaper changing station. The PnP would make it easier for change but it takes up a lot of space!
