No one can argue the greatness of the LS engine family. Since its introduction in the '97 Corvette, GM's new small-block has taken the performance world by storm. Over the last few years as LS salvage motors and purpose-built crate engines have become readily available to the masses, transplanting a "modern" small-block into classic Chevy iron has become more popular than ever.
For Bob Phelps, dropping LS engines into various cars has become a hobby. Starting with LS1s to today's LQ9s and LS7s, Bob has become an expert at putting the Gen III and Gen IV powerplants in between the fenders of various Chevrolets. From Novas to Chevelles to Tri-Fives to Corvettes, Bob has even stuffed LS power into a few '30s-era Bow Ties. According to Bob, he became infatuated with the LS engine after it first came out. To date, he's done almost 30 installs of LS engines into various types of cars. When the LS7 crate motor came out, Bob bought one immediately for installation into a '70 Chevelle, then grabbed two more to have on the shelf for other projects, like the '67 Deuce shown on these pages.
This particular Nova caught Bob's eye at Super Chevy Gainesville in 2007. Bob had brought one of his LS-powered Tri-Fives to show, and spotted the red Nova down the show line. After talking to the Nova's owner, a deal was struck, and Bob had purchased the car minus the engine and trans. The Nova was already fully restored and in excellent shape, but in Bob's eye there was massive room for improvement.
The car was shipped to his shop in Michigan (he also has one in Florida), where Bob and his crew went to work disassembling the '67 for a ground-up rebuild. Being involved with aviation most of his life, specifically the business of refurbishing and overhauling aircraft for various duties, Bob is no stranger to major projects, and knows that while anything mechanical is disassembled, there is never a better time to improve things. Bob has rebuilt airplanes like the DC-7 and DC-9 jetliner, and compared to an operation that has to survive FAA scrutiny, totally reconditioning a car is easy.
First up for the Nova's improvements was the installation of a full Heidt's front end, to eliminate the inherent weakness of the stock design. This part of the project was a bit tricky though, because Bob had to transplant the Nova's original core support onto the new front subframe.
"At the time no one made an aftermarket core support for these cars, so we had to reuse the old one," Bob says.
To handle rear suspension duties, Bob went to DTS for one of its narrowed 9-inch rears with 31-spline axles and a 3.70 Posi unit, and a full four-link setup to keep the rear under control. The rear wheelwells were opened up so modern-width tires and wheels could be added to give the Nova a full Pro Touring look.
Once everything for the front and rear suspension was taken care of, the car was treated to a full sandblasting to remove every trace of corrosion, then the entire car was rotisserie painted red, except for the interior floor of the car's shell, which was sprayed white. Why white? Bob tells us
"When you're building/reassembling a car and the interior metal is painted body color, it can be difficult to see sometimes if you drop things like screws, small fasteners, or other parts. When the interior's white, you can easily spot anything you might've dropped."
Can't argue with that logic!
When the Nova's body was reattached to the front and rear subframes, Bob also added a set of subframe connectors from his own company, Bob Phelps Motorsports, so chassis stiffness and rigidity wouldn't be an issue. Like most subframe cars, Nova's are notorious for chassis flex under high torque loads.

NICEVILLE — Months of simmering rumors and speculation about the future of Northwest Florida State College President Ty Handy reached a boiling point Tuesday at the board of trustees meeting.
Reading a prepared statement, Handy informed the board that one of its members has been harassing him and threatening him to resign by July 1.
"In the early stages of these contacts, he said that I was 'financially incompetent'; that I was an 'incapable leader'; that I was wasting money on a new computer system; and that I was solely responsible for last July's IT security breach and should have been 'fired the day it happened,'" Handy said.
"He said that he was 'building the case against me' and my demise was imminent."
He did not name the trustee.
Handy said the board member offered him other jobs and a buyout package if he resigned. Handy said he believes at least one of his employees was trying to "push me out internally" for the trustee.
During the frequent conversations on the topic the board member threatened physical violence to him and his family if he didn't quit, Handy said.
Last week, Handy said the threats were expanded to promises of disrupting board meetings and college operations in general.
"I recognize that this statement documents behavior that challenges a sitting college board member," Handy said. "I have been placed in a situation, however, where I must choose between passively supporting someone who clearly does not support me, versus actively supporting this entire board and college."
He requested the board enlighten him if there were issues with his performance and let him know how he should interact with a board member threatening him or his family and handle any harassment in the future.
Moments after Handy completed his statement, newly elected Trustee Patrick Byrne asked to address the personal attacks made against him.
He immediately denied making any threats of physical violence, but didn't deny he wanted Handy removed from the presidency.
"Dr. Handy, you were wrong," Byrne said. "You are fanciful about many of the issues and you have taken the facts that didn't occur and made a mountain out of a molehill over and over again.
"I regret your fancies. I take credit for the things I did, but I am not going to let his fancies have an effect on my performance as a board member."
Byrne added that Handy wasn't meeting the standards of excellence set by previous presidents and that he and people at the state level want to see him replaced.
He also apologized to Handy and his wife for any threats they might have perceived.
"At best, I misspoke, (but) I do not recall it," Byrne said. " … I sincerely apologize to you."
When he finished speaking, Handy's wife, Kim, asked to speak.
"Sir, I am a humble woman," she told Byrne. "But I am not ignorant … You said it multiple times, with emphasis, and I can only say, sir, if it was a misspoken message — and I'm sorry, I'm just going to have to say this — if you are so easily to misspeak like that, are you truly a person who should be on a board to lead a college? I say shame on you."
Before Byrne could respond, board Chairman Brian Pennington addressed the issue for the first time.
"We've got a lot of things to do, and if we're going to behave like this it's going to be hard," Pennington said. " … We had a great meeting up until now. We debated, we discussed and those things are proper."
He chastised Byrne for acting outside the "bounds of normal conduct on a board" and then gave all board members the opportunity to make one statement on the matter.
"Something like this needed to come before the board," Marijo Strauss said. "It is an absolutely appalling situation."
She said she has never heard a negative comment about Handy's performance in the community, and expressed concern that this would not be the last time the issue came up.
Paul Foster, who brought the issue to light by asking Handy to explain why he had previously applied for a position at Kentucky community college, didn't mince his words.
"I will tell you Pat," he said to Byrne. "If you love this college so much, you should resign."
The three other newly elected board members — Brad Drake, C. Wayne Ansley and Mike Flynt — all suggested that the board move forward, especially in light of the fact they had renewed Handy's contract for another three years earlier that night and recently gave him a positive performance review.
Rachel Gillis said she didn't regret voting to hire Handy and stood beside the decision.
"For there to be strife in this board meeting just kills me," she said. "This is not what we are supposed to be doing …. We besmirched this institution with all this craziness."
After the trustees spoke, Handy said he stood beside all his statements. He offered to submit to a polygraph test along with his wife.
The meeting ended abruptly, but Handy said he was pleased with the outcome.
"I'm excited and I look forward to a fresh start," he said. " … As long as we're able to start fresh, I want to spend the rest of my career here."
Byrne reached out to Handy's wife after the meeting and they shook hands. But he insisted he didn't think Handy was qualified for the position.
"It's a litany of things," Byrne said when asked about his opinion. "I just feel he hasn't met the standard."
Byrne said he didn't fill out the recent evaluation of Handy because he hadn't been a board member long enough to do it properly. However, he said conversations with numerous current and former staff members convinced him Handy wasn't right for the job.
As to the future, he said any differences of opinion can be professional.
"I'm prepared to do what is best for the college and that means working with Dr. Handy, if he's president," Byrne said.

LG GD900 Crystal mobile phone
LG's GD900 is almost ready for launch in the UK and Pocket-lint was on hand before the official launch to get a hands on with the new see-thru handset.
Sporting the same interface as the LG KM900 Arena, the GD900 will add extra functionality through the use of the see-thru keypad, which is actually a touchscreen itself.
Although constant cleaning is likely to be in order, the handset will allow you to zoom in on the camera application, as well as doubling up as a mousepad when you are browsing.
The handset will be available in the UK on 1 July with a price depending on contract.

Clearly a website with little traffic would function well on a VM > Mac Mini > Home Network. This is far from ideal - the end result will be frustration as both your usage scenario and setup is going to become problematic pretty quickly.
What budget do you have?
To me it seems you would do a lot better using a virtualized environment - i.e, like blue hosts for example.
Side note,
Just remember while you host / build the websites, you are accountable - I.e. you may end up in court with 4-5 clients recovering their loses.
How much have you read in the comments above you?
I have 101Mbps internet with all ports open. I had the fastest server Host Gator could offer, and it's pretty obvious when I'm the only one in control.

Carving of a Recumbent Mythical Beast
Jade animal figurines have been prominent in Chinese art since Neolithic times and are treasured for the association of jade with immortality. During the Ming and Qing dynasties (1368–1911), economic development and increased jade supply led to the wide use of jade for luxury objects like these, which depict a lion-like mythical beast that first appeared in stone tomb sculpture of the Han dynasty (206 b.c.–a.d. 220) to safeguard the spirit of the dead. Although the figures were no longer expected to provide protection, they still had auspicious meaning. One of the beasts (78.85.7) holds in its mouth a lingzhi, a type of fungus also associated with immortality.

I was disappointed to have been unable to make the 2014 Global Entrepreneurship Congress last week in Moscow. It's a historic event, in its fifth year, that gathers startup champions from around the world--entrepreneurs, investors, researchers, thought leaders and policymakers--to work together to help bring ideas to life, drive economic growth and expand human welfare. This kind of annual assembly has contributed to the expansion of a global entrepreneurial ecosystem by connecting experts and entrepreneurs across borders and sectors to unleash their ideas and transform innovation into reality.
99designs is the #1 marketplace for crowdsourced graphic design.
A new Kauffman Foundation report points to what might be a long-term bridge over the most difficult funding stage for startups—the 'Valley of Death.' In that timeframe, after entrepreneurs have exhausted friends, family, and personal credit and before they're ready for external funding, some startups struggle to raise enough capital to stay alive.
This captivating and motivating slideshow captures the every individual's "Dear Future Entrepreneur" message.
The roads that lead people to entrepreneurship are often as varied as the college campuses, Wall Street, Hollywood, basements and garages through which they wind – and sometimes even lead through Major League Baseball.
Such has been the unlikely path of former MVP and All-Star pitcher, Curt...
I spent much of Global Entrepreneurship Week traveling. It's one of the things I love most about my work at the Kauffman Foundation. And in that travel, I've learned that entrepreneurship transcends borders and languages—but it is deeply impacted by culture and policy.
Yesterday, the Kauffman Foundation announced a $1 million grant to Lorain County Community College to replicate its Innovation Fund model, which connects entrepreneurs to mentorship, education and capital, on a national scale.
A lone startup that had set up shop in a house on a typical Kansas City block has some new neighbors. In less than one year—with the recent installation of Google Fiber serving as a potential catalyst—that same block is now home to a dense pocket of startup activity and has been duly dubbed the Kansas City Startup Village.
For one week the world unites, across borders and languages, to celebrate entrepreneurs and innovators...to celebrate the world's job creators.

Stow-on-the-Wold is a market town and civil parish in Gloucestershire, England. It is situated on top of an 800 ft (244 m) hill, at the convergence of a number of major roads through the Cotswolds, including the Fosse Way (A429). The town was founded as a planned market place by Norman lords to take advantage of trade on the converging roads. Fairs have been held by royal charter since 1330 and an annual horse fair is still held on the edge of the town.
As the fairs grew in fame and importance the town grew more prosperous. Traders who once only dealt in livestock, now dealt in many handmade goods, and the wool trade always stayed a large part of the trade Reportedly, 20,000 sheep changed hands at one 19th century fair. Many alleyways run between the buildings of Stow into the market square; these once were used in the herding of sheep into the square to be sold .
As the wool trade declined, people began to trade in horses, and these would be sold at every Fair. This practice still continues today, although the Fair has been relocated from the Square, and is currently held in the large field towards the village of Maugersbury every May and October. It is still a very popular Fair, with the roads around Stow being blocked for many hours on the day.
There has been controversy surrounding Stow Fair. The large number of visitors and traders has attracted more vendors not dealing in horses. In the past local businesses used to profit from the increased custom but in recent years most pubs and shops close for 2 or 3 miles around due to the threat of theft or vandalism.
Given its exposed spot on the top of Stow Hill, the town is often referred to with the couplet "Stow on the Wold, where the winds blow cold and the cooks can't roast their dinners", but there is no source for this. It may be a corruption of the rhyme connected with Brill in Buckinghamshire.
At Brill on the hill
The wind blows shrill
The cook no meat can dress
At Stow-in-the-Wold
The wind blows cold
I know no more than this.
Stow is no longer directly served by train; the nearest railway station is Moreton-in-Marsh (approximately 4 miles from Stow). This station is on the Cotswold Line from Hereford to London Paddington. An alternative is Kingham railway station (approximately 5 miles from Stow) on the same line.

Call for input: where in the web exist building instructions for NXT robots?
Frequently I get asked where to find building instructions for NXT robots in the web (and in particular, for such that can be built with a single NXT kit).
Well, one location I know of (in addition to the two ones on the official LEGO page; NXTLOG has a huge collection of robots, but for almost none instructions are available) is my own site - yet, there certainly are other ones. But where?
Would be nice to compile a list of such pages.
If you know of stuff the likes of that, please tell us.

I am a Moderator for the Official LEGO MindStorms Forums. I created (and was the curator) of the old CAD Depot folders were we had about a hundred model instructions available for download by the community. The folders are still there but the files are gone do to LEGO combining the MindStorms forums with the rest of LEGO's discussion boards at Club LEGO. The move and software change no longer supports the uploading of CAD model instructions. Thus...NXTlog.
I still have all of the RIS model instructions that were created (w/MLCad) and gratiously donated by users of the LEGO MindStorms Robotics Invention System.
If anything...the instructions were fantastic for sharing and learning building techniques. There really does need to be a really simple collection list/site for the NXT models or also including the RIS models. One Central place....NXTlog could very well be the best "official" place to host the NXT models but not both!
BrickShelf.com users have posted a few at this point. But, in serveral different types of formats...Picture sets, LDraw/MLCad files, and other CAD program files.
I have always wanted to create this type of site. Maybe it is time. oops! Well, I'm out of time. Someone else want to have a go?

Ah, Christopher, maybe you can nudge the Lego people so that their Digital Designer software could do NXT models as well. Right now it's kind of useless compared to MLCad, but the interface is good.

Well, a couple of other: LEGO Education West has put up some nice stuff aimmed mostly at teachers, but JennToo is there, as is my remote and a lot of other stuff (thanks to James Isom over there for both CAD work and making those, as well as other models, availible):
I have some "picture" instructions for DAZLR up on Brickshelf:
And NXTasy has a repository for some stuff as well (a lot of the MDP work):
Dave Astolfo has some nice stuff up as well, I *think* with some instructions (the site seems down currently):

Having a standard structure and file format to store the designs, instructions, sample code and documentation would be helpfull. ( common look and feel for things like build instructions )
Having a free 3D CAD type app to design and record the build instructions would be great, and I was looking into this myself. I have an idea on how to implement code for the 3D CAD part using the new MS XNA ( 3d hardware acceleration is now built-in to XP SP2 and Vista ), but I would need a digital library of Lego XNT parts. If anyone knows if CAD files are available for all the parts, let me know.

Now I know where that ridiculous "Republicorp" sign MoveOn's Lauren Valle (the girl that got stomped) tried to shove in Rand Paul's face came from. If you have no other reason to vote for the GOP to totally thump the left on election day, just watch this...
...............I know, I feel stupidester too. I'm embarrased for them. I feel sorry for them. This video is so....so....sad.
The nicest thing I can say about it is if it was trying to be satire it failed miserably, and they really REALLY need to say it is satire.
If they wanted people to be persuaded to their point of view they should have focused on ridiculing what they think is wrong with the GOP, not create some over the top cartoonish reality that makes them look so Looney Tunes that the only choice is to vote for the adults in this election cycle...and if it ain't them its going to be, rightly or wrongly, the GOP by default.

The Witches' Almanac, Issue 33 Spring 2014-2015: The Mystic Earth, edited by Andrew Theitic
The Witches' Almanac Ltd., 9780982432396, 208 pp. (Incl. letters, ads), 2013
Reading The Witches' Almanac is like going to a favourite restaurant and ordering all of the appetizers and two desserts for dinner: you get a dazzling array of different tastes, but with no single dish too filling.
The Almanac has been steadily growing over the years. Early issues were 90 or so pages, stapled in soft card covers like the typical Farmer's Almanac; recently it has graduated to a typical trade paperback: 9×6-inch, 208 pages, perfect-bound, glossy cover. This helps make their front-cover motto, "Ever a Keepsake," realizable.
This year's theme is "Mystic Earth," returning to the theme of no. 30, though this time from a different angle. Unfortunately the cover art, with the Earth seen from space in a palette of greens, blues, deep-space black, and incongruous cream text-box backgrounds, ranks as the least-appealing in a long time, although I like the idea of doing something modern occasionally.
Inside you'll find 65 articles with a good mix of folklore, practical advice, and esoterica. "A Witch's Garden" looks at planning and planting an herb garden in a reverent and inspiring way. Several short features on herb lore and other earthy topics from respected Druid Ellen Everett Hopman carry the theme into the rest of the book. The closest thing to a single article that matches the theme, though, is Jimahl di Fiosa's "The Magic of Camping," which, like the one above, is full of hints for doing this common activity mindfully and reverently, as well as in a safe and organized manner. He's not Pollyanna about his topic though, in the last paragraph he advises, "If it all goes terribly wrong, then at least you can say you've tried it." Continue reading

In all the history of the Corvette, the cars that have received the least amount of attention for their role in shaping Vette history are the prototypes. That's because many of them were not only thrashed in the name of performance, safety, and durability, but were also unknown to all but the few who worked and/or beat on them daily. The fate of many of them-like all but one of the "1983" Corvettes-was the crusher. Many times, that fate was due to liability concerns by The General about these cars getting loose among the common folk. But many other times, it was because there was not much left of them to save, especially the cars that were crash-test "survivors." This Admiral Blue '95 Corvette coupe escaped that fate and is now at home in the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
The 27th car off the Bowling Green Assembly line at the start of model year 1995 production, this one was shipped to Michigan after it was built as an engineering tool and testbed. Delphi Automotive Group, which was owned by GM at that time and included GM's former chassis-component-parts-maker Delco, took custody of this car and used it as the mule in developing the RPO Z16 Grand Sport package for the following ('96) model year. this car is very likely the last C4 Corvette ever used by a GM entity for research and development of that generation of Vette, after a decade-plus of R&D.
During the '95 model run, the decision was made that 1996 would be the C4's last go-round, and the all-new C5 would now get the lion's share of research and development attention and funding. But there was still enough money left to come up with a special edition to end the fourth generation with; one that included mechanical upgrades under its special-edition color scheme.
The biggest upgrade is the one that's most visible when you open the hood: A prototype LT4 engine, which didn't join the Corvette options list until 1996. This one has hand-lettered job numbers on both valve covers that topped its all-new aluminum heads. plus there are more than a few prototype-only stickers in the engine bay, including a big one saying this vehicle was exempt from Federal and California emissions regulations, and that copies of its emission-test data were available from GM's Corporate Affairs office (and that the sticker should be removed before GM sold the car). Because it was an as-tested vehicle, it has a nice "patina," the same color as Midwestern dust/dirt/topsoil, characteristic of a car that's spent more time on the road than being pampered.
The LT4 boosted the second-generation small-block V-8's horsepower by 30, to 330, thanks to good stuff like the new heads, which boosted compression from 10.4:1 to 10.8:1, plus a new camshaft/roller rockers combo. Combined with the early LT4 is a production RPO MN6 six-speed manual transmission that, for 1995, featured a newly redesigned reverse lockout on its shifter. Out back, in this last-of-the-nontransaxle Corvette test cars is the differential housing a set of 3.45:1 rear gears.

I'm one of a litter of 3 kittens. We were found abandoned when we were only 2 days old! Sometimes kittens that young don't make it without their mom, but we were determined to live. Our foster mom fed us around the clock with a tiny bottle. We had milk made especially for kittens because cats cannot digest cows milk (although all cats seem to love the taste!). When we got a little older we "graduated" to regular food and then our foster mom could sleep through the night. That is, until we discovered nighttime is the best time to play!
Since we were raised by a person we think we are people! No one told us that cats are supposed to be aloof, or shy, or independent. We LOVE people and will come running to say Hi whether we know you or not!
We have been inside our whole lives, so we have no skills to be outside. We love it inside just fine, thank you very much. We really like those cardboard scratchers and we are all very good about using the litterbox. We are very gentle and good about keeping our claws in when we play with you.
I'm called "Silky" because of my smooth silky fur. From the very beginning, even in my baby-kitten-fluffy stage, my coat has felt like it's made of silk. At first I was a little more aloof from my brother and sister, but as we've gotten older I've decided I really like to be with them! My sister is fun to play with, but I have a blast with my brother!
I would love to stay with both my sister and my brother - we play so nicely together and have so much fun - but if that isn't possible I have to have another kitten wherever I go. I will get too lonely by myself and have too much energy to be a companion to an adult cat. And, I need a home where people are around most of the time because I love being with them so much.

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

10. Al Davis will shake things up
Normally this wouldn't be a bold prediction, but without a 1st-round pick Davis will have to get creative. Perhaps he'll trade into the 1st round in an effort to land Jason Campbell's eventual replacement. Ryan Mallet certainly fits the mold of an Al Davis quarterback…
9. Two or fewer trades occur in 1st round
After this weekend, no one knows when the next time will be that teams will have opportunity to fill holes. This could be their only chance to address some needs before the free agency period – which may not be as active as we're used to. Draft picks are more valuable than ever this year and most teams will be reluctant to part with them.
8. Patrick Peterson comes off the board within the first six picks
Most mock drafts have Peterson falling to the 49ers, but he won't last that long (sorry Niners fans). Denver supposedly likes him. Buffalo is unpredictable, so who knows what they'll do. Arizona could settle for him. Dallas could trade up. And if all else fails, the Browns will snatch him up at No. 6.
7. Mark Herzlich has a looooong wait in Radio City Music Hall
Herzlich is one of the 25 players attending the draft, and while the cancer survivor will get a great ovation when he is finally selected, he's going to be waiting awhile. He clearly lost a step after returning to the field this past year, and he is unlikely to come off the board with in the first three rounds.
6. Three receivers go in the 1st round
A.J. Green and Julio Jones will go in the top 10, but someone else will join them later in the 1st round. The Rams could trade back and select some such as Titus Young or Jon Baldwin. The Falcons and Jets are two others possibly interested in a receiver in the late 1st.
5. Mark Ingram falls to the late 1st… and possibly further
Running backs have such a short lifespan in the NFL and are so readily available in the middle rounds of the draft that teams are becoming increasingly less interested in spending high picks on them. Ingram is the consensus top available player at the position, but there are very few teams desperate to fill a hole at that position. If the Dolphins don't take him at No. 15, he'll fall into the 20s and possibly into the 2nd round.
4. The Jaguars shock us with their 1st round pick
It will be tough to top the Tyson Alualu selection, but GM Gene Smith will surprise us once again. Maybe they decide to go for a quarterback? Mallett? Locker? Ponder? Or maybe they reach for a receiver? Titus Young? Torrey Smith?
3. Rumors of Da'Quan Bowers' fall prove to be greatly overstated
Those screaming the loudest that Bowers knee is probably are probably the ones hoping he falls to them. I wouldn't be shocked if he lands in Cleveland at No. 6 and I have a hard time seeing him fall further than No. 12 to the Vikings. Sorry Bucs fans, he's not going be there at No. 20.
2. Jake Locker falls further than expected
Rumors have swirled that the Redskins may want him at No. 10. If I had to bet I'd say they do like him, but would prefer to wait until the 41st selection. Nothing he did on the field this year resembled a 1st-round pick, let alone a top-10 pick. Most teams love his talent – and it only takes one to make him a 1st-round pick – but he still has a 2nd or 3rd round grade on most draft boards.
1. Only three quarterbacks will go in the 1st round
Despite rumors that as many as five signal callers could go in the top 32 picks, only three will actually come off the board – Newton, Gabbert and third (possibly to the Dolphins). Everyone else will wisely wait until the 2nd and 3rd round where less money will be on the line.

Short version:
I've been a solo programmer for 5 years, right out of school, and am looking to for resume tips as I aim to get a job with a larger, well structured company.
Long version:
I am a 26 year old who graduated in CS in 2007. I had an internship for a small company starting in 2006, and still work for them to this day. I'm looking to work for a larger company for reasons beyond the scope of this post. During this time I was the only programmer, and designed/coded/maintained four .NET applications for various industries. Those four projects kept me very busy. My applications have happy customers, they work well and look nice.
I realize that being a solo developer has given me some strengths and some weaknesses compared to my peers.
My strengths are that I can self educate well, and I've suffered the consequences of mistakes firsthand, so I can give VERY good reasons why I do things the way I do.
My weaknesses are that I've lacked a mentor, and the missed opportunities to learn from him/her. I also lack team work with programming. I worked closely with other technical people, and had my own SVN/TFS servers, but never worked closely with other programmers, delegated orders, or really had a specific role other than "do everything." I realize that the teamwork is a crucial component of a mature developer.
So now, some questions about a resume and/or interview:
Should I be up front about being on a lonely island of programming so long?
When listing my projects in a resume, since I was a solo dev should I describe the projects in great detail, and say that I did everything rather than say "I did xxx, yyy, zzz"?
My current employer has web pages with videos/screenshots of my software in action, should I link to them?
Do you think my strengths make up for my weaknesses and leave me > 0?
Any other tips?

A speculative account of Maria Anna "Nannerl" Mozart, five years older than Wolfgang and a musical prodigy in her own right. Originally the featured performer, she has given way to Wolfgang as the main attraction, as their strict but loving father Leopold tours his talented offspring in front of the royal courts of pre-French revolution Europe. Approaching marriageable age and now forbidden to play the violin or compose, Nannerl chafes at the limitations imposed on her gender. But a friendship with the son and daughter of Louis XV offers an alternative.

Try this one.
By person
from colorado
I've tried many similar products over the years and this is a good one for people who want electrolytes but find other products too heavy or overloaded with sweetness or calories. Good for hot rides, but probably not ideal for the Ironman since it does not have protein or high caloric content. Mild flavor, not bad.
Perform performs.
By Cyclingmachine
from Charlotte, NC
PowerBar Perform does what it's supposed to. It's not too sweet, goes down easy, doesn't leave a weird aftertaste (like Nunn tabs do) and mixes very easily. I've used it on shop rides, training rides, centuries and trail riding. It seems to do the trick.

Works great for me. Only buy on sale for maximum savings.
No Gut Ache, Inexpensive
By goat boy
from SLC, UT
This is the best sports drink for the money. Get it on sale and the cost per serving is the lowest I've found. May not be as high tech as other more expensive brands but consistently helps keep me hydrated and keeps cramps away on long hot rides with lots of climbing. Mixed at full strength does not upset my stomach as with cytomax and other brands I've tried. Decent enough taste. Mixes easily.
Sports drink worth its weight
By LB3
from Richmond, VA
Great product for hydration. I found the 3 scoops for 24oz bottle to be a bit heavy handed during a race in warm or hot conditions. Provides usable energy fairly quickly with good recovery feeling mentally.

Every element, except a possible greatest element, has a unique successor (next element). Every subset which has an upper bound has a least upper bound. There may be elements (besides the least element) which have no predecessor.
Spelling note: The hyphen is frequently omitted in contemporary papers, yielding the spellings wellorder, wellordered, and wellordering.
Every well-ordered set is uniquely order isomorphic to a unique ordinal number, called the order type of the well-ordered set. The position of each element within the ordered set is also given by an ordinal number. In the case of a finite set, the basic operation of counting, to find the ordinal number of a particular object, or to find the object with a particular ordinal number, corresponds to assigning ordinal numbers one by one to the objects. The size (number of elements, cardinal number) of a finite set is equal to the order type. Counting in the everyday sense typically starts from one, so it assigns to each object the size of the initial segment with that object as last element. Note that these numbers are one more than the formal ordinal numbers according to the order isomorphy, because these are equal to the number of earlier objects (which corresponds to counting from zero). Thus for finite n, the expression "n-th element" of a well-ordered set requires context to know whether this counts from zero or one. In a notation "β-th element" where β can also be an infinite ordinal, it will typically count from zero.
For an infinite set the order type determines the cardinality, but not conversely: well-ordered sets of a particular cardinality can have many different order types. For a countably infinite set the set of possible order types is even uncountable.
In a well-ordered set, every element, unless it is the overall largest, has a unique successor: the smallest element that is larger than it. However, not every element needs to have a predecessor. As an example, consider an ordering of the natural numbers where all even numbers are less than all odd numbers, and the usual ordering applies within the evens and the odds:
This is a well-ordered set of order type ω + ω. Note that while every element has a successor (there is no largest element), two elements lack a predecessor: 0 and 1.
If a set is well-ordered, the proof technique of transfinite induction can be used to prove that a given statement is true for all elements of the set.
The well-ordering theorem, which is equivalent to the axiom of choice, states that every set can be well-ordered. The well-ordering theorem is also equivalent to the Kuratowski-Zorn lemma.
In a well-ordered set, every subset with an upper bound has a supremum.
If a set is totally ordered, then the following are equivalent:
With respect to this topology there can be two kinds of elements:
For subsets we can distinguish:
A subset is cofinal in the whole set if and only if it is unbounded in the whole set or it has a maximum which is also maximum of the whole set.
A well-ordered set as topological space is a first-countable space if and only if it has order type less than or equal to ω1 that is, if and only if the set is countable or has the smallest uncountable order type.
