The TOP 12-outlet .6 GPH black nozzle is part of our four color-coded flow rate nozzle configuration used as an add-on or as a replacement into the 12-outlet drip manifold or to any of the four TOP models available. If using one of the nozzles with the manifold housing, the outlet on the bottom of the manifold housing can be used with 1/8" micro tubing as a standard press fit connection or with our 1/4" micro tubing as an add-on using one of our 1/4" color-coded converter barbs or elbows.
The Drip Store's retrofit systems can be used to convert an existing sprinkler head to a drip system without altering the flow or other capabilities of the original design. The retrofit drip heads are available in 12 outlets, and can be used with individual plants or groups of plants as part of any irrigation system.
Retrofit drip heads or manifolds are designed to adapt any 1/2" riser to a drip irrigation system. They may be incorporated into a new system, or used to convert an existing sprinkler to a 12- outlet drip system. Retrofitting conventional sprinkler systems to low flow water saving drip systems requires a few simple steps that include evaluation of the areas to be watered and selection of the best method to water. The most suitable uses for retrofit drip systems are for shrubs, trees, roses, or individual plants that can be irrigated more efficiently using this system.
To install a drip emitter nozzle, remove the cover, then the filter and insert the drip emitter with the 0-ring into one of the twelve open cavities. Make sure that the grooved area on the cone shaped nozzle and the 0-ring are facing upward. The four color-coded nozzles with different flow rates can be combined in the same TOP head.

See W. L. Prosser, Handbook of the Law of Torts (3d ed. 1964).
Assault is a crime of violence against another person. In some jurisdictions, including Australia and New Zealand, assault refers to an act that causes another to apprehend immediate and personal violence, while in other jurisdictions, such as the United States, assault may refer only to the threat of violence caused by an immediate show of force. Simple assaults that do not involve any aggravation such as use of a deadly weapon are distinguished from aggravated assaults in some jurisdictions. Assault is often defined to include not only violence, but any physical contact with another person without their consent. In common law jurisdictions, including England and Wales and the United States, battery is the crime that represents the unlawful physical contact, though this distinction does not exist in all jurisdictions. Exceptions exist to cover unsolicited physical contact which amount to normal social behavior known as de minimis harm.
In most jurisdictions, the intention to cause grievous bodily harm (or its equivalent) may amount to the mental requirement to prefer a charge of murder in circumstances where the harm inflicted upon the victim proves fatal.
Assault is typically treated as a misdemeanor and not as a felony (unless it involves a law enforcement officer). The more serious crime of aggravated assault is treated as a felony.
Four elements were required at common law:
Simple assault can be distinguished without the intent of injury upon another person. Simple assault can consist simply of the violation of one's personal space or touching in a way the victim deemed inappropriate. (i.e. one's personal space consists of arm's reach.)
As the criminal law evolved, element one was weakened in most jurisdictions so that a reasonable fear of bodily injury would suffice. These four elements were eventually codified in most states.
Modern American statutes define assault as:
Some states also define assault as an attempt to menace (or actual menacing) by placing another person in fear of imminent serious bodily injury.
States vary whether it is possible to commit an "attempted assault" since it can be considered a double inchoate offense.
In some states, consent is a complete defense to assault. In other jurisdictions, mutual consent is an incomplete defense, with the result that the misdemeanor is treated as a petty misdemeanor.
Furthermore, the crime of assault generally requires that both the perpetrator and the victim of an assault are human. Thus, there is no assault if an ox gores a man. However, the Unborn Victims of Violence Act of 2004 treats the fetus as a separate person for the purposes of assault and other violent crimes, under certain limited circumstances. See H.R. 1997 / P.L. 108-212
Some possible examples of defenses, mitigating circumstances, or failures of proof are:
Aggravated assault is usually differentiated from simple assault by the offender's intent (i.e., to murder, to rape etc.), the extent of the injury to the victim, or the use of a deadly weapon, although legal definitions vary between jurisdictions. Sentences for aggravated assault are generally more severe, reflecting the greater degree of harm or malice intended by the perpetrator. In many cases, the perpetrator is sentenced to life in prison, or consecutive life terms depending on how many counts of assault he or she is convicted of. There have been a few rare cases where a perpetrator whom assaults someone with a deadly weapon receives the death penalty depending on how much bodily harm has been inflicted onto the victim. The average sentence for aggravated assault in the United States ranges between 30 and 90 years in prison per count/charge.
Some states also permit the use of less severe corporal punishment for children in school and at home by their parents. In English law, s58 Children Act 2004, limits the availability of the lawful correction defense to common assault under s39 Criminal Justice Act 1988.
Causing a person to apprehend violence can be committed by way of action or words: R v. Ireland [1997] AC 147. Of course, words can also mean that otherwise threatening actions are rendered not capable of being an assault, as in the celebrated case of Tuberville v. Savage (1669 1 Mod 3, T). In that case, the Defendant told the Complainant (while putting his hand on his sword) that he would not stab him, because the circuit judge was visiting town for the local assizes. On that basis, the Complainant was deemed to have known that he was not about to be injured, and no assault was held to have been committed.
The "immediacy" required has been the subject of some debate. The leading case, again, is R v. Ireland [1998] AC 147. The House of Lords held that the making of silent telephone calls could amount to an assault, if it caused the victim to believe that physical violence might be used against him in the immediate future. One example of "immediacy" adopted by the House in that case was that a man who said, "I will be at your door in a minute or two," might (in the circumstances where those words amounted to a threat) be guilty of an assault.
Section 39 of the Criminal Justice Act 1988 provides that common assault, like battery, is triable only in the magistrates court in England and Wales (unless it is linked to a more serious offense which is triable in the Crown Court). Additionally, if a Defendant has been charged on an indictment with assault occasioning actual bodily harm (ABH), or racially/religiously aggravated assault, then a jury in the Crown Court may acquit the Defendant of the more serious offense, but still convict of common assault if it finds common assault has been committed.
Because common assault is a summary-only offense, its maximum penalty is six months' imprisonment, or a "level 5 fine" (currently up to £5,000). The "starting sentence" for a first time offender pleading guilty is normally a community penalty.
English law makes distinctions based on the degree of injury, between:
Furthermore, English law also provides for the offense of grievous bodily harm (GBH). GBH may be committed by way of an assault, though an assault is not a necessary ingredient of either inflicting grievous bodily harm pursuant to s20 of the Offences Against The Person Act 1861 or causing grievous bodily harm with intent pursuant to s 18 of the same Act (R v. Ireland [1998] AC 147, per Lord Steyn at p. 160).
The constable (normally a police officer) must be acting "in the execution of his duty" for this offense to be made out. If he exceeds the remit of his duty (e.g. acts unlawfully in assaulting the Defendant), the offense will not be made out.
The Defendant does not actually have to be aware that the person he is assaulting is a constable (Forbes (1865) 10 Cox CC 362).
Violations of the law against hubris included what would today be termed assault and battery; sexual crimes ranging from forcible rape of women or children to consensual but improper activities, in particular anal sex with a man or a boy; or the theft of public or sacred property. Two well-known cases are found in the speeches of Demosthenes, a prominent statesman and orator in ancient Greece. These two examples occurred when first, Meidias punched Demosthenes in the face in the theater (Against Meidias), and second when (in Against Konon) a defendant allegedly assaulted a man and crowed over the victim.
Hubris, though not specifically defined, was a legal term and was considered a crime in classical Athens. It was also considered the greatest sin of the ancient Greek world. That was so because it not only was proof of excessive pride, but also resulted in violent acts by or to those involved. The category of acts constituting hubris for the ancient Greeks apparently broadened from the original specific reference to mutilation of a corpse, or a humiliation of a defeated foe, or irreverent, "outrageous treatment", in general.
The meaning was eventually further generalized in its modern English usage to apply to any outrageous act or exhibition of pride or disregard for basic moral laws. Such an act may be referred to as an "act of hubris", or the person committing the act may be said to be hubristic. Ate, Greek for 'ruin, folly, delusion', is the action performed by the hero, usually because of his/her hubris, or great pride, that leads to his/her death or downfall.
Crucial to this definition are the ancient Greek concepts of honor (timē) and shame. The concept of timē included not only the exaltation of the one receiving honor, but also the shaming of the one overcome by the act of hubris. This concept of honor is akin to a zero-sum game. Rush Rehm simplifies this definition to the contemporary concept of "insolence, contempt, and excessive violence".

Exotic fruit brings police to a Waukesha apartment complex
What was feared to be urine throughout a Waukesha apartment building and possibly a meth lab, turned out to be exotic fruit in the complex.
Police responded to an apartment complex at 304 W. Newhall Ave. at 6:46 p.m. March 9 because the caller smelled a strong odor of possible cat urine in the whole building, the police log notes.
The caller said it is "wafting into her apartment."
The woman told police that she Googles other things that could smell like cat urine and it indicated a meth lab, so the caller was now concerned about a meth lab in the complex, the police log says.
When police arrived they didn't find cat urine or a meth lab. Police found that the "pungent aroma" was in fact coming from an exotic fruit in the upper level of the complex.» Read Full Article
Waukesha again in political limelight with Walker's presidential announcement
Waukesha is becoming the epicenter of some recent high-profile political events.
Three years ago, Country Springs Hotel hosted a Republican primary rally during the lead-up to the 2012 presidential election that brought the national media to Waukesha County.
Months later, the day after U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Janesville) announced he would be Mitt Romney's vice-presidential running mate, thousands packed into the Waukesha County Expo Center grounds to greet him at a rally that also brought out state and national politicians.
And just last year, President Barack Obama stopped in Waukesha during a two-day tour after giving the State of the Union speech. Obama touted job training at GE's Waukesha gas engines plant and signed a presidential memorandum to initiate an across-the-board review of how to reform federal training programs.
Now, Gov. Scott Walker is set to announce his quest to become the next president of the United States. And he'll do it in Waukesha, a city and county that has given him plenty of support in recent gubernatorial and recall elections.» Read Full Article
Why no help for schizophrenic girl in Slender Man stabbing?
Morgan Geyser spends her days in near isolation at the Washington County Juvenile Detention Center in West Bend, eating under a table, feeding ants and watching The Weather Channel for hours, without medication or therapy.
Experts agree that the 13-year-old girl, charged with trying to kill a sixth-grade friend in May 2014, needs serious mental health treatment.
Geyser suffers from a rare form of early-onset schizophrenia, an incurable mental illness that two psychiatrists agree will only worsen faster, and with less chance of mitigation, the longer she goes untreated.
Prosecutors, the judge, jail officials, her lawyers, parents and doctors all want Geyser to get medication and therapy.
So why isn't she getting any?» Read Full Article

Committee moves proposed downtown Waukesha apartment forward
Bryce Styza said he has looked at redeveloping a property at the southeast corner of Corrina Boulevard and Buckley Street in downtown Waukesha for some time.
That's why after a city committee expressed concerns about his proposed multifamily development at a meeting a month and a half ago, he and his team didn't shy away from the issues or decide to look elsewhere.
Styza returned to the Redevelopment Authority, a committee that reviews projects in and around downtown, to present updated plans on a 47-unit apartment complex last week.
And this time the committee gave the complex, which is along the riverfront and surrounded by residential homes, its blessing.

Waukesha's water application draws key support
There are still potential waves to push through in Waukesha's quest for Great Lakes water.
Nonetheless, the city's application to obtain Lake Michigan water took a step forward last week when the state's Department of Natural Resources published an Environmental Impact Statement and Technical Review draft stating the application meets the requirements of the Great Lakes Compact.
The DNR said in its review that Waukesha has no reasonable water supply alternative in the Mississippi River Basin, even with conservation of existing water supplies.
"The water supply alternatives are likely to have greater adverse environmental impacts due to projected impacts on wetlands and lakes than the proposed Lake Michigan alternative," the DNR said in its review. "The department determined that all the proposed water supply alternatives are similar in cost to the Lake Michigan alternative, yet none is as environmentally sustainable or as protective of public health as the proposed Lake Michigan water source."

Woman given 12 months probation for downtown Waukesha stabbing incident
A woman who was charged in a stabbing incident earlier this year in two downtown Waukesha apartments pleaded guilty to one of the felony substantial battery charges.
Brenda Adams, 52, previously of Waukesha who now lives in Milwaukee, was subsequently sentenced to 30 days in jail and 12 months probation. The court, however, halted the jail sentence.
The court is allowing her to serve the sentence in Milwaukee County. The second charge — substantial battery with the intention of bodily harm — has been dismissed.
She had been facing original charges that could have resulted in a fine of up to $35,000 and 16 years in prison.
As part of her sentencing hearing, she must maintain absolute sobriety; not use or possess alcohol, illegal drugs or drug paraphernalia; not have any association with known drug users or dealers and no contact at any place where illegal drugs are purchased, used, stored, packaged and distributed; and not have any violent contact with the victims listed in the criminal complaint.» Read Full Article
Judge sentences Waukesha woman who beat daughter to probation
A 34-year-old Waukesha woman was sentenced late last month to a year of probation for slapping and biting her teenage daughter, according to online court records.
The woman, who will not be named to protect the identity of her daughter, on May 29 pleaded guilty to amended charges of misdemeanor battery and disorderly conduct, and was sentenced to a month in jail by Waukesha County Circuit Court Judge Michael Aprahamian.
Court records show that Aprahamian stayed the jail sentence in favor of probation and ordered the woman to pay $243 in court costs.
The woman was charged in late January with with felony child abuse-intentionally causing bodily harm and misdemeanor disorderly conduct after she was arrested for allegedly beating and biting her daughter, who was 16 at the time.
As conditions of her probation, the woman will have to complete domestic violence and parenting classes and maintain full-time employment. She is also prohibited from having any violent contact with her daughter.» Read Full Article

Environmental groups remain opposed to Waukesha request for lake water
the city's only reasonable option.Several regional environmental groups said Thursday they remain opposed to the City of Waukesha's request for Lake Michigan water, even though preliminary findings of a state review determined a Great Lakes supply was
Waukesha has access to a sustainable water supply and does not require a diversion of water from the Great Lakes, the groups said in a joint statement. They did not identify the water source other than to say they had "emerging information" on how this source could meet the city's needs.
The Milwaukee Riverkeeper organization did not respond to a request for details on their preferred water supply for Waukesha other than to say the groups had hired an engineering consultant to assist with the analysis. Other groups joining the statement were: Clean Wisconsin, Midwest Environmental Advocates, National Wildlife Federation, Wisconsin Wildlife Federation, River Alliance of Wisconsin and Waukesha County Environmental Action League.
After a five-year review of Waukesha's request for lake water, the Department of Natural Resources on Thursday released a series of preliminary decisions in draft reports. Among the key findings:

How come the battery icon shows up on the bottom of the screen with all the other icons even though my laptop is plugged into the wall?
The battery ran out slowely slowely and I had to recharge it.
But, normally.. if my laptop is just plugged into the wall, shouldn't it be able to just work that way, the way it usuallly does? .
The lightblub thing is normall a neon blue.
when the battery ´needs to be recharged it goes red.
the light blub thing for the wire/plug is a faded blue now, it used to be neon blue.
why is this?..
why's this happening!!!

I have been following WWE and WCW since the mid 90's and I haven't seen a wrestler that has been as selfish and conceded as one Brock Lesnar! This man only works for himself and gives nothing back to the fans and I for one am sick of it. He had the chance to be "The Next Big Thing" in the WWE (even though he didn't have mic skills AT ALL) and I was on board because he had it all; size, speed, ability, accolades, attitude, a big push from Vince, and most of all Paul Haymon, but that wasn't good enough for him he wanted to play NFL which he failed miserably at. Then he thought he could go into the UFC and compete. The only person that got hyped and flopped more than Lesnar was Kimbo; what a waste of time and money these guys were. UFC has top athletes that have trained in MIXED MARTIAL ARTS not just wrestling and boxing. Lesner had no chance. That leads us to his current situation. He couldn't compete in the UFC so he "retired" to go back to WWE where the wrestling fans (and their 6 month short term memory) gave him a second chance, just for him to turn his back yet again and talk about going back to UFC. Now like I said I am a long time wrestling fan and do realize this could be a work and if it is, it is an epic cross promotional work the likes of which will be legendary, but if this is the real situation I say FU*K Lesnar! Who's with me?
He was World Champion, he must have been ok.

Itachi is one of the two remaining members of the Uchiha clan, he graduated from the chuunin selection exam at the age of 10, and when he was 13 he already became an ANBU Captain. Together with his brother, Sasuke, they're the only known shinobi still alive after the Clan's massacre. The clan, once praised as the top clan in Leaf village, was wiped out by Itachi himself. Itachi, a genius praised as the clan's future, killed his entire family in a single night. Everybody except for his little brother Sasuke, whom was forced to watch the bloody annihilation of everyone he knew and loved.
Itachi, has the feared Sharingan eye bloodline trait. An ability used to copy an opponent's techniques, see through their movement, as well as closely focus on anything the bearer might need to, better than the ordinary human eye. Having fully mastered this ability, he is able to use it's most advanced form; the Mangekyou Sharingan.
After the extinction of the Uchiha clan, Itachi left his village, became a missing-nin. He forced his brother to live a painfull life due to witnessing what he did, swearing that he will avenge the clan and kill Itachi. The reason why he murdered all members of the Uchiha clan is not known fully known. He said it was to see if he could do it. And most likely to obtain the Mangekyou sharingan, which is said to only be possible to get when the user has lost everyone they love and care for, or a desperate situation which is life threatening, after losing a best friend. Itachi said something second Mangekyou sharigan user besides himself, as well.
Itachi is a member of the Akatsuki an organization comprised of "Sly S-Rank Criminals" as Kakashi stated. Their ultimate goal is unknown, but we do know they're after the jinchuuriki and Itachi and his partner Kisame were ordered to track down the Kyuubi (The Nine Tailed Fox Demon) jinchuuriki, and take him back with them. In other words, they were ordered to kidnap Naruto, the host in which the Kyuubi was sealed. Some time after Itachi joined Akatsuki Orochimaru tries to take over Itachi's body, but fails and ends up having his hand severely damaged. After this incident Orochimaru leaves the organization.
Itachi first appeared in episode 80, where we breifly veiwed him and Kisame observing the ruined Leaf village, after Orochimaru's invasion. Itachi and Kisame get detected by Kakashi who is defeated by Itachi quite easily using the Mangekyou Sharingan. Kakashi being defeated so easily, searches for a way to counter the Mangekyou Sharigan. We have yet to see Itachi's true power, but considering his Sharingan and the fact that he's very skilled with genjutsu and ninjutsu makes him a force to be wreckend with.

When a novelist writes a best seller, it's far from the standard fare of everyday life. The recipe for a modern-day novel: a fall for forbidden lust; a grand desire to have what isn't one's own; and a truckload of heated passion necessary to weave a sordid tale.
Sounds fun to us!
So when we embarked on Corvette Fever's challenge to find Corvette owners who would, dare we say it, swap their most cherished possession, it seemed like the perfect tale. The challenge, we all agreed, would be to find willing participants.
Fortunately for us, one of our first introductions at the '03 Corvettes at Carlisle was Bobby Tow and his '01 Millennium Yellow Z06. This patriotic road rocket had nearly everything we were looking for to launch our Corvette swap concept. Here was a highly modified, retina-searing beauty. Best of all, Bobby had friends in his North Georgia Lanier Corvettes Unlimited club who would gladly swap their Corvettes for a chance to sample his.
While we were far from an illicit setting, the concept was compelling nonetheless. Bobby introduced us to Jack Jett and his Stars & Stripes '00 Torch Red coupe. At the same time, we met Brit Dave Rasmussen and his Black '95 LT1 wearing the Union Jack on its flank quarters. We made our proposal: drive the other's Corvettes and tell us the sordid details. I closed by saying, "It's kinda like wife-swapping, only legal."
"We're in," the trio enthusiastically replied.
'01 Millennium Yellow Z06Flowery Branch, Georgia
If you were to design the ultimate performance aftermarket Z06, you wouldn't have to look much further than Bobby Tow's. Bobby participates in NCCC autocross and open-track events at nearby Road Atlanta, which helps underscore the modifications the Corvette has undergone.
Under the hood, the LS6 is a tough package to improve, but Bobby has installed a 178-degree thermostat and the appropriate fan-control system, a Granatelli Motorsports mass airflow sensor, a Halltech forced-air induction system, and a Halltech ported throttle body. On the exhaust side, Breathless Performance Products headers feed Random Technology catalytic converters and a Corsa Competition Titanium 3-inch system with dual 4-inch tips.
Transferring the power to the six-speed is a lightweight aluminum flywheel and a Kevlar clutch-to-pressure plate, which is perfect for on-track demands.
This patriotic Z06 features the Stars & Stripes on the carbon-fiber hood, and a fixed headlamp system reminiscent of the C5-R was purchased from Breathless. To date, the Z06 has run a best quarter-mile of 12.38 seconds at 119 mph on street D.O.T. tires. A Baer EradiSpeed brake system hauls it down to a stop.
Jack Jett on Bobby Tow's Z06
"Bobby has changed about every bolt-on part other than the internals of the LS6 engine, so this car still has the wonderful reliability and fuel efficiency GM designed. Twenty years ago, an engine designer's fantasy would have been to create such a car that is capable of nearly 30 mpg!
"Once I got used to the Kevlar clutch and the immediate brakes, driving this Corvette was a triple 'E-ticket' ride. This car is the most fun I have ever had with my clothes on in 57 years. When you 'get on it,' it makes the most awesome sound I have ever heard.
"But, let's be honest, the true test of owning a car like Bobby's is the wife. My wife, Raye, rode back from Carlisle, 670 miles, with Bobby's wife, Connie. Upon their return I asked her how the trip was. She said, 'Fine, like riding back in our car. Why do you ask?'
"That's all I wanted to hear. As soon as the C6 Z06 is available, I plan to purchase one and drive it back from the museum delivery and straight into A.S.A.P. and say 'Set this car up exactly like Bobby's.' That's how much I love driving Bobby's Z06."
Dave Rasmussen on Bobby Tow's Z06
"As we say in England, 'Bloody 'ell!' Compared to my LT1 Corvette, there is a noticeable increase in torque and, when you couple that with the short gearshift on the six-speed, you get great shifts. That is, once you are comfortable with the Kevlar clutch. Man, it is quick! It is either in or out.
"In one section of road approximately three quarters of a mile in length, a series of esses proved the Z06's magnificent handling. Best of all, the brakes were a perfect match and definitely not stock.
"The aftermarket exhaust is a straight-through system and consequently very loud under full throttle, but not uncomfortably loud.
"Positives: Raw horsepower mixed with great handling and stopping power. Tuned to run on the track.
"Negatives: Harsh clutch requires increased revs in First to get off the line. This Corvette is definitely not driver-friendly in slow traffic. The loud exhaust is certainly not for everyone."

Recycled-plastic Levis: Do these bottles make my butt look big?
Levi Strauss blue jeans go green with a new collection of clothes made with recycled plastic.
Your next pair of Levi jeans may include black trays, brown beer bottles, clear water bottles, and green soda bottles. The new WasteLess collection uses polyester fiber made from crushed plastic recyclables. The bottles are collected from municipal recycling programs around the country.
Both jeans and trucker jackets will be available. Plastic pants don't sound very comfortable, but the plastic parts only take up about 20 percent of the cloth. The recycled fiber is mixed with cotton fiber so you get a pant that feels like regular denim.
The WasteLess collection will use more than 3.5 million recycled bottles. Each pair of pants wiil have about eight bottles integrated into it.
It would be nice if we could tell which bottles are in which pair of jeans. I'd love to be able say, "Check out my hot pants. They're made from Coors Light and malt liquor bottles." Classy.
You'll have to wait until January 2013 to slip into your hipster green skinny jeans. In the meantime, keep recycling those bottles.

Just a few short years after Chevy introduced the original 265 small-block, the company followed up by offering a true legend in the form of the fuel-injected 283. Often touted as the first mass-produced motor to offer 1 horsepower per cubic inch, the fuelie 283 started a small-block Chevy performance trend that would continue for decades. The 283hp 283 of 1957 was eventually replaced with Chevy's new wonder motor, the 327. Compared with the 283, the 327 offered an increase in both bore (from 3.875 to 4.00 inches) and stroke (from 3.00 to 3.25 inches). Continuing the performance trend started a few years earlier, Chevy topped the hot 327 with the latest version of its mechanical FI setup. The pinnacle of this combination was the famous L84 fuelie motor that offered no fewer than 375 hp in 1964 and 1965.
Whereas the fuelie 283 offered 1 hp/ci, the L84 sported an amazing 1.146 hp per cube. In fact, until the release of the quad-cam LT5 in the ZR1, the L84 was the highest-rated production small-block ever offered by Chevrolet. Of course, there's a major difference between the gross power numbers of the muscle-car era and the modern net-rated versions. Gross ratings were obtained on an engine dyno under ideal conditions and without accessories. The current net ratings comply with SAE standards and are taken at operating temperature, using the factory tune, and with full accessories, induction, and exhaust (including catalytic converters). Thus the 375hp L84 is likely closer to 325 hp by today's more exacting standards.
Looking at the specs of the L84, you can see that the 327's power came courtesy of an elevated compression ratio, a set of high-performance heads, and aggressive cam timing. Back in the days of high-test fuel, factory motors could get away with a combination of iron heads and the 11.0:1 compression offered in the L84. Similarly, the L84's hairy solid-lifter cam yielded a crotchety low-speed idle that wouldn't be tolerated in the modern era. Whereas lesser motors offered 1.94/1.50 valves, the "double hump" fuelie heads (461 castings) sported a larger 2.02/1.60 combination. Of course, the main reason anyone purchased the L84 was the Rochester FI system. Interestingly, other than the fuelie induction system, the L84 was the same motor as the carbureted, 365hp L76.
Sales figures indicate that the L76 was much more popular than the L84. There are two distinct reasons for this, the first being price. While the L76 cost just $129 more than the base engine, the fuelie motor tacked on a whopping $538, or $246 more than the 425hp 396! Another factor was that fuel injection was completely foreign to most enthusiasts at the time. In fact, a great many fuelie owners removed the injection setup altogether and replaced it with a single- or dual-quad combo for street/strip racing.
The popularity of the carbureted engine and the general inaccuracy of the output ratings of the time gave rise to an interesting question: What was the real difference in power between these legendary small-blocks? Did the L84 really produce 10 more peak horses than its carbureted sibling? If so, what was the difference in power elsewhere along the curve? And what about fuel metering? Did the injected combination improve the air/fuel curve compared with carburetion?
The Hardware
To accurately answer these questions, we needed to first build a suitable test motor. We decided to assemble not just a small-block, but something that would replicate the original 327 combinations of 1965. This meant an 11.0:1 327 equipped with period-correct cylinder heads, a reproduction of the original solid-lifter cam, and the factory high-rise intake. Obviously we also had to have an original Rochester FI system on hand to compare to the carbureted combo.

Great location, comfortable rooms and excellent service.
We are a family of 5 (3 kids, 7,9, 19) and booked 2 rooms. They were adjoined, and while there were only 2 twin beds in one (as listed) there was enough room for a cot. The hotel has 4 or 5 restaurants, so you can find one that appeals to taste/budget.
This was a perfect hotel in a great location. We traveled all over Sri Lanka and found this hotel to meet or exceed every expectation. The room was perfect, the pool area was pure luxury and the restaurant choices were excellent. I would stay there again.
The only "quirk" was that the elevators were not air conditioned. But they were fast, so we didn't have to be in them very long!
Here's why:

Long-suffering Corvette performance enthusiasts had their loyalty tested for most of the '70s and the first half of the '80s. Ever since Big Brother stepped in and pulled the plug on the performance party in Detroit, practically nothing of real interest had rolled off the assembly line. Finally, in 1985, the L98 Tuned Port Injection engine became available. Though not exactly a return to the halcyon days of such fire-breathing mills such as the big-block LS6 454 or the high-revving, solid-lifter LT1 small-block, the TPI proved a capable performer, and when paired with the nimble C4 chassis, it was a giant first step back in the direction of performance.
In the spring of 1988, rumors started swirling about a return to true high performance in the Corvette camp. The car in question was to be called the ZR-1, and it would benefit from an unprecedented engineering effort aimed at elevating the Vette to the status of genuine world-class performer. Though still a high-school student at the time, Houston radiation oncologist Sanjay Mehta knew he wanted a ZR-1 from the moment he saw the first spy photos of the new model. "I sat in study hall, reading car magazines, dreaming of the day I would own one," he says. Word of an engineering collaboration with Lotus certainly piqued his interest, as it did for even the most casual of Corvette observers. As it turned out, the fruits of this project were to be unlike any engine previously installed beneath the car's long composite hood.
The new engine, dubbed the LT5, shared the same displacement as the familiar small-block 350, but that's where the similarities ended. Based on an aluminum block and cylinder heads, the engine featured four valves per cylinder and four overhead camshafts. The advanced combustion-chamber design allowed an unheard of (for the time) compression ratio of 11:1. The LT5 was so smooth, it was claimed a nickel could be stood on edge on the intake manifold and remain standing while the engine was started.
One of the more ballyhooed features of the new ZR-1 was the "valet key." A separate key inside the cockpit could be switched between normal and performance modes. The idea was to limit unauthorized joy rides in the new super-Vette. The LT5 intake manifold featured separate runners and injectors for each of the sixteen intake valves, two per cylinder. This system was only active during spirited driving, and disabling it with the valet key substantially reduced peak power production.
With all the runners active, though, look out! The LT5 churned out 375 hp at 5,800 rpm and 370 lb-ft of torque at 4,800 rpm. This was enough to hurl the portly (3,520 pounds) ZR-1 through the quarter-mile in 13.4 seconds at 109 mph. All LT5 engines were hand-assembled at the Stillwater, Oklahoma, plant of Mercury Marine before being trucked to Bowling Green for installation in the ZR-1 chassis.
While the engine got the majority of the attention, the ZR-1 chassis was no slouch, either. Featuring the cockpit-adjustable FX3 suspension, it had three settings to allow the driver to maximize the car's performance under different driving conditions.
The car was soon dubbed "King of the Hill" by GM insiders, and the press was quick to adopt the sobriquet. Had Chevy gotten it wrong, this unofficial title could easily have blown up in the company's face. Thankfully, this wasn't the case. Not that many nonenthusiasts noticed. Despite its brawny performance, the ZR-1 wasn't exactly a head-turner.

Retail Cash Management
Efficient cash handling with solutions by Wincor Nixdorf
Cash management processes in the retail sector are currently in the focus of retail enterprises, banks and cash-in-transit companies.
Today's largely manual cash handling process offers major potential for increasing productivity along the entire process chain – from the point of sale right through until the money is posted to the retailer's business account.
Cash continues to play a dominating role in the retail industry. A good 20 years after cashless payments first appeared, in most countries well over 50 percent are still cash transactions – with variations depending on region, industry and sales format. Small shopping baskets, in particular, are usually paid for in cash.
Cash handling is a cost-intensive process for retail companies, and offers major potential for improving productivity.
