YIELD: Makes 16 Squares
Preheat the oven to 300°F. Grease a 7- or 8-inch square baking pan with the oil. Set aside. Place the nuts in a food processor and chop until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Put the contents into a small mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar and egg whites. With a spatula, scrape the contents of the bowl into the oiled pan and press into an even layer. Bake for 1 hour for soft cookies or 1 1/2 hours for crisp cookies. Remove from the oven. Allow to cool. Cut into 1 3/4- or 2-inch squares.
Variation: Chocolate Yum Yums Even though these are simply a chocolate version of the Yum Yums, everyone seems to think that they are brownies. Yum. Melt 2 1/2 ounces of 70% darknot milkchocolate in a double boiler. Add to the mixing bowl after the sugar and egg whites. Proceed as directed.

No Stock Trading, please…Tuesday, May 19th, 2009
Dear Trade4All http://www.trade4all.com/ Persons;
It seems insuficient to share with you that I do not support speculative trading (for speculation instead of production is a certain way to eventual economical collapse. Exactly what is happening to our culture in the larger loop of those "in the know"…But I can see how those of us NOT "In the know" might "fall into temptation" and aim to "day-trade"… Sounds good!…But you and I know that it's an almost totally unlike win unless you are a "day trading scientist"…And even then, its ONLY speculation!) No fun. I don't support it. Please abstain from aiming to link, kindly.
Allow me to make clear that if you atempt to use my site for your link once more, you'll force me to report you as spam.
Thank you for your kind attention;
Always love, light and laughter;
Leticia Huber : )

Unraveled fabric is the block that Limbo is made out of and can only be found there. In much the same way as Netherrack is indigenous to the Nether.
It can be mined just by hitting it and, currently, has no use (other than as a building material).

Mic Barnette writes a very popular genealogy column in the Houston Chronicle. He has thousands of readers in the greater Houston area plus more on a Web site. Last spring the newspaper planned to "demote" the column to a smaller publication. A letter and e-mail writing effort from readers convinced the newspaper to abandon that plan.
Now the newspaper is planning to do it again. Here is an e-mail I received from Mic Barnette:
Dear Dick: Most people get upset when they see their name on the death page of a newspaper. I have been writing the genealogical column in the Houston Chronicle for over ten years and my name has been on the Houston Chronicle's Online Death Page where a link to my current online column has appeared for most of those years. It seems weird, but, as of today my name is no longer there. So, as the movie said, "Houston, we have a problem".
In June the Chronicle had their annual change-about and The Houston Section where the column has been running quite successfully for the past year and a half got a new editor. After the new editor arrived the column ran the first couple weeks then problems began occurring.
The column has not run in four weeks. The first week the editor said there was no space. The second week she said it would run. Later that week she emailed that it had not made the issue. I have not heard anything more from the editor since then.
Yesterday one of my readers spoke with the Reader Representative who told her there was talk they might switch the column to the This Week Section where the column ran the first 9 years.
Your readers have been very supportive of my column in the past. I really hate asking for your and their help again. However, I would appreciate it if they would write in their own words an e-mail or call the Houston Chronicle in support of the column. Media, such as the Chronicle, live by statistics-numbers count.
Here is the information about the column:
The column has run for over 10 years.
It has run the last year and a half quite successfully in the Saturday edition of the Houston Section. This section has the movies, comics, crossword puzzle and other items of popular interest. This is where the column really needs to continue running.
If not the Houston Section, then one that is included in the newspaper wherever it is sold, including New York City, LA or wherever a genealogist lives.
Rumor is (assuming they keep the column) they might place it back in the This Week Section. This would be bad because:The This Week is only delivered within Metro Houston.
It would not appear outside the city of Houston.
The This Week section is a zoned part of the newspaper.
There are about 16 zones within the city.
Each zone has a different editor and each zone has it's own space problems. This means the column may be published in full in one zone but only partially or not at all in another zone during the same week.
Should your readers like to write or call one or both the Reader Rep and the editor their information is:
James T. Campbell (Reader Rep)
E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Phone: 713-220-6303
Houston Section Editor: firstname.lastname@example.com
I would appreciate getting a copy or blind copy of any emails at email@example.com

Fellowship Information
Overview of the GI Fellowship Training Program
The 3-year fellowship training program in gastroenterology at the University of Tennessee, Memphis is comprised of three basic components: a 20 month core curriculum, 3-4 months of research, and 12 months of elective.
The core curriculum is uniform for all fellows and includes hospital-based consultative gastroenterology and hepatology training, two longitudinal general GI clinics (for the entire 3 years), and a series of conferences designed to augment the clinical training goals of the curriculum.

Robert Hughes
Robert Hughes [1] (1824-1895) was related to two important enslaved families at Monticello. As the son of Wormley Hughes (1781-1858), grandson of Betty Brown (1759-after 1831), and great-grandson of Elizabeth "Betty" Hemings, he was a member of the large Hemings family. Robert's mother was Ursula Hughes (1787-after 1827), a granddaughter of Great George and Ursula and niece of Isaac Jefferson/Granger.
Wormley Hughes worked in the Monticello nailery as a youth; as an adult he became Monticello's head gardener and was in charge of the stables. Hughes, who dug Jefferson's grave, was unofficially freed after Jefferson's death. He was a domestic servant in the Jefferson-Randolph household until his own death.
Robert Hughes was born at Monticello. Along with his mother and several of his siblings, he lived in slavery until the end of the Civil War on the plantation of Jefferson's grandson, Thomas Jefferson Randolph. After the war, Hughes, who was a blacksmith, acquired over a hundred acres of Albemarle County land. He was the founding minister of Union Run Baptist Church near Charlottesville, Virginia, where he served for three decades.

Checks Marks the Spot
Wednesday, 31st Aug 2011
Never one to deliver the predictable, Richard Nicoll's womenswear designs for the AW11 Laurel Wreath Collection are a clash of patent leather and wool, oversized dresses and tailored shirting. Whilst many designers have looked to the swinging 60s for inspiration this season; Nicoll has steered clear of candy-pop colours and taken the collection down a richer route, playing with dark sherry and deep marine blues and looking to the less obvious Parisian Beatniks of that decade for inspiration.
Images shot by Paul Wetherell for Fred Perry
Whilst the soft Breton striped jerseys typically associated with French fashion feature in the collection; the key pattern for this season is a dark sherry check, set against shades of blue, biscuit and vanilla. Woven in wool and printed across pure silk, this signature check is a striking offset to the collection's textured angora knits and sleek patent leather. Favourites include the checked wool Harrington jacket (above right) which is perfect worn with pieces from within your own wardrobe - try teamed with a simple fitted shirt, slim cut trousers and vintage penny loafers for a modern take on the 1950s Teddy Girl.
Richard Nicoll's AW11 Collection for Fred Perry Laurel Wreath is available at FredPerry.com and in our Laurel Wreath Collection shops now.
Amy Winehouse AW11 Collection
Monday, 8th Aug 2011
After much consideration and with the blessing of Amy's family, Fred Perry has decided to release the AW11 Amy Winehouse for Fred Perry Collection. Amy was passionate and dedicated to the collaboration and her signature style is clearly stamped across each piece. In such circumstances, Amy's royalties and fees from both collections will be donated to the soon to be established Amy Winehouse Foundation. Fred Perry will also make a seasonal donation to the Foundation.
Amy's father Mitch Winehouse has said: "When Fred Perry came to us to ask what we would like to do with the new collection it was natural to continue. Amy loved working on both collections and would want them to be made available. All the money we make and the donation that Fred Perry will give will go straight into to the Amy Winehouse Foundation which we are setting up to help children and young people in her name."
The collection is available in Fred Perry Authentic Shops and online at FredPerry.com from today.

Race Face Next SL Crankset
The Race Face Next SL Crankset leads its class in weight, and delivers stiffness and durability to match.
Wolf Tooth GC 42t Cassette Cog
The Wolf Tooth GC 42 cassette cog boosts the gear range of a 1×10 drivetrain at a fraction of the cost of a new 1×11 setup.
SRAM X1 Drivetrain, Part 2
SRAM's new X1 is lighter, cleaner, and shifts better than 2×10 systems, and it's currently the most affordable 11-speed drivetrain available.
SRAM X1 Drivetrain, Part 1
SRAM's new X1 group isn't just another 1×11 drivetrain, it's a system poised to impact the whole industry. Here's why.
eThirteen TRS+ Race Cranks
eThirteen's TRS+ Race cranks are a great option for the 5-6" travel segment, but will also work well on any bike where weight and pedaling efficiency are a consideration.
Xpedo Spry Flat Pedals
The Xpedo Spry are some of the lighter and more affordable flat pedals on the market, but are they durable enough for you?
Wolf Tooth Cyclocross Chainring
If you're looking for a relatively inexpensive switch to a 1X setup for your cyclocross bike, the Wolf Tooth narrow / wide ring is a solid choice.
Wolf Tooth Chainring
Want to make your ride simpler, quieter, and lighter? You should try the Wolf Tooth narrow/wide chainring.
SRAM XX1 Drivetrain
With the XX1 kit, SRAM has basically defined exactly what a purpose-built trail group should be, with a number of designs that will likely become industry standards.
Shimano XT vs. SRAM X9 Clutch Derailleur Systems
If you haven't looked at a clutch derailleur, you should. Reviewer Kevin Bazar breaks down the pros and cons of two solid choices, the Shimano XT and the SRAM X9.
SRAM X9 Drivetrain
SRAM's X9, 2×10 Drivetrain offers exceptional performance for the price. So take a look (unless you just won the lottery).
An Argument For Ditching Your Front Derallieur
This may have been unappealing in the past, but the right 1×10 setup will quiet your bike, improve shifting performance, and increase clearance. Take a look.
SRAM X9, 10-Speed Drivetrain
SRAM's X9 10-Speed Drivetrain delivers a ton of bang for the buck.
Crank Brothers Mallet 3 pedal
By slightly lowering the weight and significantly lowering the price of the new Mallet 3, Crank Brothers has raised the bar with their high end, clipless platform pedal.

When one thinks of quality fragrances, your mind may drift to names like Dior, Chanel, Burberry and…Tomlinson? Yes, One Direction is continuing their foray into the fragrance world with their new scent "You & I" which may as well be titled "No Seriously, You TOTALLY Have A Chance With Harry Styles!"
A follow up to "That Moment" and "Our Moment," this new perfume is described as:
Bright splashes of mango and refreshing grapefruit are combined with a heart of creamy osmanthus, exotic orchid and soft peony to offer a romantic signature that captures the peak of nature in bloom.
Background notes of musk, indulgent praline and sandalwood blend to wrap the fragrance in smooth, seamless harmony.
I'm quite picky about my perfumes but this sounds like it could be a light, fun, refreshing scent. You can pre-order it from Macy's starting today, but in the meantime, check out the lads' Mission Impossible style advert for the fragrance…
Tell me the truth my olfactory followers: are you more or less likely to buy a celeb fragrance? Do you think it's weird when gents release scents for girls, or is all fair when it comes to the war of the noses?

Greater Williamsburg Tag-O-Rama
View Single Post
Beastly Adventurer
Joined: Mar 2010
Location: Lanexa, Virginia
Oddometer: 1,870
Greater Williamsburg Tag-O-Rama
I have been playing the Richmond Commuter Tag, the Hampton Roads, and Virginia Tag-O-Rama's and thought I would give it a whirl for this neck of the woods.
I am shamelessly copying the rules and verbiage of my brethren before me, so here goes:
Greater Williamsburg Tag-O-Rama
Any inmate can play this game. You do not have to live in the Greater Williamsburg area or even the state. If you are retired and don't have to work. Or you are independently wealthy, great you have more time to ride than the rest of us. Play along.
The geographic limits to the game are the following:
York County
Charles City County
Essex County
Hanover County
Gloucester County
Lancaster County
Mathews County
Middlesex County
New Kent County
Northumberland County
City of Williamsburg
James City County
King William County
King and Queen County
Westmoreland County
Surry County
Rule #1 "One tag at a time and county roads are acceptable
Tag must be findable. Maintained gravel and hard packed dirt is OK, but make sure to let folks know that gravel/dirt is required to get to your tag. No single track please. Dual sporting inclusive enough that the average guy who is willing to truly leave the pavement can be included (like me!).
Include clues in your tag. Don't make the clues useless, not everyone is a Jeopardy contestant wanna be."
Rule #2 File photos are acceptable for setting a tag (
winter only
), BUT are unacceptable for claiming a tag.
Rule #3
No whining!
Rule #4 (from Retro) Repeating a Tag location
. This is bound to happen, and if it does, so be it. Pulling a tag after its posted has more downsides than just letting it go. Suppose someone went after the original tag, and someone else went after the reposted tag? There would be confusion and understandable annoyance (at least) depending on the situation.
So, in the future, once a tag is posted, it stays.
Rule #5- pending
Rule # 6
The 36 Hour Rule.
This rule is designed to keep the game moving and
is still in effect
. If someone makes a Grab, they have a 36 hour window to post the next Tag. If the Grabber does not post a new Tag within this 36 hour period then the last Tag is back in play for a Grab (Steal).
Newbies: You cannot just attach a picture you have to get an account with something like Photobucket or Flickr. If you use Photobucket resize the pictures to 640-480 or so, then cut and paste the IMG Code into the place where you make your comments. Post the Grab location in the subject line.
We want this game to move as quickly as possible.
For those of you who are new to tag in general. This is the way it works. A photo is taken of a bike in a scene. It is posted on this thread. Clues are provided for the tag's location. You solve the clues or recognize the location from the picture. You ride out to the location. Put your bike in the same scene.
Take a picture and
identify the location in your post's subject heading
If you are the first to post your picture on the thread, then the new tag's location is yours to determine. The cycle repeats itself.
If someone beats you to the tag (posts it first then you have been 'Bruced'. Don't ask me where this term comes from just accept it, ok?)
This is your opportunity to share with other riders your favorite haunts, historic sites, etc around our area.
I will post the first Tag.

The Plain Dealer
In response to the Sept. 6 story about MetroHealth Medical Center's No One Dies Alone volunteer program, I just wanted to let readers know that Hospice of the Western Reserve always has someone with transitioning patients. It is an honor and a privilege to be included in the last days and hours of their lives.
The article implied that this is a new protocol. But Hospice of the Western Reserve has had volunteers doing this for many years — in hospitals, nursing facilities and private homes.

BEIRUT: Summer is a multifaceted thing, of course, and its visual representations ramify as they resonate through the imaginations of artists. So it is with "Accrochage D'Ete" (literally Hanging Summer), a group show now on display at Ashrafieh's Alice Mogabgab Gallery.
This exhibition is comprised of a wide range of works, all executed in traditional media like painting and sculpture. Pieces by Lebanese painters Fadia Haddad and Rima Amyuni, French artists Charles Belle, Christophe Bonacorsi and Samuel Coisne, and English sculptor Emma Rodgers are among the 17 on display.
Charles Belle's massive (250x200 cm) acrylic-on-canvas work "Une Belle Riviere" ("A Beautiful River") is a breathtaking piece. It depicts a black stallion against a purple background, a description that does little justice to the majesty of the thing.
Belle's touch lies in his use of color. Though limited, his palette – mostly hues of black and purple with notes of orange shimmering between the brush strokes – evokes great nuance.
The textures and contours of the creature's body are rendered in the varying shades of purple playing, like reflections of the night, off his black coat. Grey-black daubs bring gradations to the velvety purple background.
Belle's starting point wasn't to paint a horse exactly, in the view of Gallerist Alice Mogabgab, but the back of a woman. This ambiguity might speak to the work's sensuality.
Belle's skill is also evident in the way he plays with light. Although his colors are somber overall, the piece radiates movement as the animal's musculature emerges from the two-dimensional representation.
The impression of motion also characterizes Emma Rodgers's 155x30x55 cm ceramic equestrian-themed piece "The Hunt." Five archer-mounted horses, with golden chains affixed to some of them like ornamental bridles, are held aloft from their base by skewers, making them evocative of a fairground carousel.
The five mounts and the figures riding them are all rendered incomplete, as though the representation reflected the rapidity of their movement, and thus the fragmentary quality of the onlookers' perception of them.
Small in size, these ceramic fragments are nevertheless impressive for their representation of power. There is something ghoulish in Rodgers' rendering of her horses and riders, yet the work is less alienating to the onlooker than it is appealing.
At first blush, Caroline Lejeune's oil-on-canvas piece "Le Jardin d'Agathe" ("Agatha's Garden," 195x130 cm) has little in common with Rodgers' work, yet here too the artist masterfully seduces the onlooker to enter an unnatural world or her own creation.
The work represents an idyllic rural vista of thick vegetation ringing a bayou or pond. Marked by great depth of perspective, the scene has been rendered with a grey-and-white palette, making the work look like a reproduction of a black-and-white photo.
"Accrochage D'Ete" includes some disturbing work as well. A case in point is Christophe Bonacorsi's "Autoportrait" ("Self-portrait"), in which the artist's eyes, rotated right in their sockets, stand out luminously white against the slate grey of the figure's face. Since the figure's face is lit from the left, the onlooker may wonder to herself who (or what) has attracted his attention.
There is also something arresting in Samuel Coisne's untitled drawing of a deer-like creature whose antlers extend upward to the size and shape of tree branches. Francophones will detect the amusing pun imbedded in Coisne's work. Branches are, of course, made of wood. The French word for antlers ("bois") also translates to mean "wood."
"Accrochage d'Ete" is on display at Alice Mogabgab Gallery until Sept. 29. For more information, please call 01-204-984.

An we wonder why so many clergy are caught molesting little boys ?? No I don't wonder a lot of those people are freaks likely molested them selves at chruch when they were kids so now its normal an OK to them.The top legislative body of the Presbyterian Church in America voted by large margins Thursday to recognize same-sex marriage as Christian in the church constitution,
Its pretty sad when the Church starts bowing to political an media pressure an does not stay true to its beliefs
One day as the people of this strange world gets to the point of desperation, with the lack of food and water, everything will turn around, and the queers will
be the fist to come under the harshness of a desperate nation, and they will fall by great numbers, and the dick suckers will be back in the closet.
I feel as I'm lucky, and lived to see the best this country has to offer in the years from 1945 to 1980'.
My grandson asked what I thought about queers, and I stated that I did not know any, but if I did I would not like them.

UTSA employees: Activate UT EID to access personal information online
(Jan. 20, 2012) -- If they haven't done so already, part-time and full-time UTSA employees must activate their UT EID in order to access UT Direct, an online site where they can download earnings statements and W2s, update personal biographical information, obtain an employment verification letter and more.
To activate a UT EID, employees must present a current, government-issued photo ID such as a driver's license or passport at either of the following ID centers between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday-Friday:
- DEFINE Administrative Services, University Heights Building 4, Suite 600
- UTSA Card Office, Multidisciplinary Studies Building Suite 1.01.52, Main Campus
Once the employee has been identified, he or she will receive a temporary password and will be instructed to create a permanent password in order to log onto UT Direct for the first time.
Employees who have attended Day O.N.E @ UTSA (part of new employee orientation sessions) have completed the UT EID activation process and are not required to visit an ID center.
For more information, contact the DEFINE Administrative Services at 210-458-4556 or 210-458-4346.

BEIRUT: "Refuse to live in fear. Refuse to live a life where you may die a martyr. Refuse to live in violence. Add #notamartyr to ur tweets #Lebanon."
The short message from a brand new Twitter account, @notamartyr, was probably seen by just a handful of people when it was first tweeted just before 7 p.m. on Dec. 30. A week later, the Lebanese online world was splattered with the hashtag #notamartyr, and the movement's Facebook group had attracted nearly 5,000 likes.
"We began the initiative when a few of us got together after the Shatah bombing," said one of the campaign's co-founders, Muhannad, referring to the Dec. 27 killing of former Finance Minister Mohammad Shatah and seven others.
"We were all pretty disturbed by it and wanted to find something to do."
The result was a social media campaign that called on Lebanese across the world to post a message of what they wanted to change about the countryalong with the hashtag #notamartyr. Sparked by a series of deadly car bombs and tapping into long-standing frustrations with Lebanon's many irregularities, the movement soon went viral – particularly among the younger generation.
At first, people posted messages decrying the rise in senseless, sectarian violence. But the movement quickly widened to include people speaking about other struggles they face.
"I want the right to take my mom's nationality," tweeted one woman.
"I don't want to constantly feel like leaving," posted another on the "I am NOT a martyr" Facebook page along with a picture of her Lebanese passport.
In one of the dozens of selfies uploaded to Facebook, Hamed Sinno ofindie-pop band Mashrou' Leila holds up a note in Arabic saying: "I want to hold my boyfriend's hand without being afraid of the police."
But on top of giving people a visible, albeit temporary, outlet to express their frustrations, the idea was also to stop the label "martyr" being applied to people who, rather than willingly dying for a cause they believed in, were simply unwitting victims of violence.
The word is "overused," said Muhannad, and just covers up the brutal fact that "the [dead] person was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time."
"Our problem with the word is not in those cases when someone wishes for themselves to be a martyr," he explained, "but when an innocent victim is appropriated by larger political forces through that word.
"It's the appropriation that we don't like, no one has died for any good reason in any of these bombings," he added.
The other problem with the word, explains fellow blogger Gino Raidy, is that it can be used to absolve authorities of the responsibility they have to find and punish those behind attacks.
"The word 'martyr' used to have a certain respect attached to it," he told The Daily Star. "But it's now become an instant reaction to any death ... they are called a martyr so we move on, no investigation needed."
But even as the campaign was gathering momentum, there were already those questioning whether the outpouring would change anything.
"People who are participating in the #notamartyr campaign are no more than nagging about their problems publicly," Mohammad Hijazi, editor of Cloud961 magazine, told The Daily Star by email.
"Many times when people interact or engage with a social media campaign relating to social change, they get the 'good feeling' that they have done a good deed when in fact their contribution doesn't really result in a tangible solution."
Others suggested something good could come of it, so long as the organizers pushed forward with specific goals.
"At some point and sooner [rather] than later, this [online] momentum should be taken offline in a productive way to try and create a change," said Mohamad Najem, co-founder of SMEX, an organization that trains groups on using social media strategically for social change.
"Aiming to change something small and work toward achieving this goal is more realistic than bigger goals."
For Muhannad and his fellow organizers, the main aim was to fire up debate and spread the message that people who died in such attacks were victims, not martyrs. They held a candlelit vigil a few days after the Dec. 27 bombing, but are otherwise still considering their next step.
"We are in the midst of discovering how that momentum can be harnessed," Muhannad said.

Re: R12 Sub Ledger Accounting (SLA) in Oracle AppsHi ramesh,
As of my knowledge before Sub Ledger Accounting (SLA) whenever we are doing create accounting at AP or AR then they directly go to General Ledger. But here after implementing SLA concept whenever we are not willing to transfer accounting information to GL then we can divert it to SLA tables and we can modify them there and we can post them. In Payments, Receivables, Reconciliations we can do this. Please refer to the below posts for documents on this SLA topic.Regards,

Re: R12 Sub Ledger Accounting (SLA) in Oracle AppsRamesh,
Sub Ledger Accounting is a beautiful feature which has come a full circle with R12. It was there with the AX patches in R11i. Basically in Release 11i
a) Every sub ledger module had its own program that needed to be run to send entries to GL.
b) Having sent the entries to GL , the amount of data in there also varied from module to module which limited the drill down feature significantly.
c)In R12 a uniform program called create accounting comes into play.The architecture is changed. When a Business event happens and is captured by a transaction in the subledger, this is passed on to SLAM where all the accounting entries are centralized and reside, it is possible to uniformly extract information from different modules.
d)By ensuring a seamless sync between the subledger and GL, significant savings in time and effort to reconcile has been achieved. Please do look at the different modes you can submit the Create accounting program and the rationale.
e)Online inquiry is far more detailed compared to the earlier limitations as more subledger information can be viewed seamlessly and in a standard way.
f)Another important feature should be seen in the 4th C which was introduced in the Ledger. With this it is now possible to maintain different variations of subledger accounting information with different rules thereby catering to minute geographical and statutory needs and giving more flexibility.
I have uploaded the Oracle student guide for SLAM. Also refer to their usual documents on the same. It is vast but easy to understand once you look at it from a functional and practical perspective.
Good Luck

Track: Carrier-Eades Advances to Hurdles Semis
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – West Virginia senior Chelsea Carrier-Eades got off to a strong start to the U.S. Olympic Trials by qualifying for the 100-meter hurdles semifinals Friday evening in Eugene, Ore.
A product of Buckhannon, W.Va., Carrier-Eades placed 10th overall in the preliminaries round in 12.95 seconds. The top three finishers from each of the five heats plus the six athletes with the best remaining times advanced to the semifinals round Saturday night at 6:15 p.m. She finished fourth in the first heat in 12.948, just six thousandths of a second behind automatic qualifier LaTisha Holden (12.942).
"We are very happy with how Chelsea ran today," says WVU coach Sean Cleary. "The 58-degree weather was less than ideal, but she came out and ran the third-fastest time of her life, a very good sign for tomorrow's semifinals. She will get into an ice bath and have a good meal before coming out strong tomorrow."
Kellie Wells (Nike) won the preliminaries round in 12.68, followed by Ohio State's Christina Manning (12.77) and Nike's Dawn Harper (12.79). Carrier-Eades placed ahead of six of the automatic qualifiers and was the top non-automatic qualifier to advance.
With her top 21 finish in the preliminaries, the eight-time All-American will compete in Saturday evening's semifinals at 6:15 p.m. The top eight from the semifinals compete in the finals round later Saturday evening at 8:45 p.m.
Carrier-Eades, who recently placed seventh at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, seeks a top-three finish in the finals round to qualify for the London Olympics in August.
She will also compete in the heptathlon beginning Friday, June 29, with the 100-meter hurdles (1:30 p.m.), high jump (2:30 p.m.), shot put (4:15 p.m.) and the 200-meter dash at 5:15 p.m.
The final three heptathlon events occur Saturday, June 30, with the long jump (6 p.m.), javelin throw (7:15 p.m.) and the 800-meter run at 9:20 p.m. The heptathlon field will consist of the nation's top 18 heptathletes.
Former WVU athlete Josh Simpson competes in the 10,000-meter run later this evening at 9:45 p.m.

Salt Lake City, Utah (PRWEB) March 12, 2014
Nationally renowned agricultural and food supply expert Steve Shenk believes Americans are failing to prepare for the after-effects of this year's natural disasters including floods, rising beef prices, water-rationing and food shortages. The Polar Vortexes have impacted the lives of over 200 Million Americans, and Shenk believes few will be prepared for the remaining disasters unless they take the steps outlined in his time-tested emergency survival guide.
"People don't have to be victims when rough times hit," states Myfarminabox.com founder, Steve Shenk. "80% of us will face some natural disaster in 2014, but it's only a disaster if you're not prepared for it, and I've been helping people get ready for 30 years."
Shenk believes citizens are falling short in their duty to protect themselves and their families, and he wants to help everyone keep from being caught flat-footed in any future storm or natural disaster by offering his time-tested emergency survival guide at http://www.fearlessusa.com.
The Emergency Survival Guide provides step-by-step structure anyone can follow, including preparedness programs, plans and updated information for:
Shenk continues: "When you've been doing this as long as I have, you study weather trends, global food cycles and the politics of survival. For years, FEMA, the Red Cross, government officials, police and fire departments urgently recommend everyone be prepared with https://shop.myfarminabox.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=60&product_id=54&_ga=1.96808534.870728634.1394576095 , but the storms this year are proving most Americans have fallen short. I want to help Americans triumph over Mother Nature each and every year."

THREE suspects in the MTN K1 billion 'Let's Go BEEG' promotion fraud case yesterday appeared for mention in the Livingstone magistrate's court.
MTN call centre support engineer, Jones Ilukena, 43, with co-accused and alleged winner of the K1 billion MTN Win BEEG Namuchana Sinuma, 31, and Richard Kawana, 35, a teacher at Mulwani Basic School yesterday appeared for mention before Livingstone Magistrate Edsen Shandula.
Trial in the case would commence on January 16, next year as the trial magistrate was not around to proceed with the case yesterday.
The trio has pleaded not guilty to the charge of cheating and money laundering related offences under the Prohibition and Prevention of Money Laundering Act.
Ilukena between September 1 2011 and March 1 2012 is alleged to have intentionally and without authority interfered with the MTN Summer Campaign WIN BEEG Promotion data.
It is also believed that Ilukena did cheat by purporting that Sinuma was a genuine winner of the promotion when in fact the outcome had been predetermined in her favour by manipulating the MTN IT system.
The three accused persons are alleged to have engaged in money laundering activities by purchasing a house, plot number 2644/410 at K320 million which they registered under Kawana's name.
Sinuma had allegedly acquired three houses in Dambwa North and Central at a cost of K330 million and a motor vehicle from the money that she fraudulently acquired from the MTN competition.
All the properties have since been seized including Kawana's Zanaco bank account with a balance of more than K40 million.

Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago wants the Inspector General of Government to investigate Executive Director Jennifer Musisi over dealings with the Chinese firm Foton East Africa.
Foton is a garbage truck and bus importer. Lukwago has written to the IGG alleging abuse of office, the petition comes hot on the heels of claims that the lord mayor obtained money and other material perks from Foton in exchange for helping them to construct a motor vehicle showroom on Nile avenue in Kampala. Lukwago was reportedly facilitated by Foton to travel to China in 2012 where he allegedly assured the company executives that he would use his authority to support Foton's business in Kampala.
Foton allegedly paid air tickets, hotel accommodation and generous allowances for Lukwago's political and business associates including Deputy Lord Mayor Sulaiman Kidandala, Councillor Allan Sewanyana and Sarah Kanyike. But Lukwago now wants the IGG, Justice Irene Mulyagonja, to investigate how Musisi authorized KCCA to issue a permit to one Geoffrey Rugazoora on behalf of Foton East Africa to construct a structure along plot 42 Nile avenue, well knowing that the said land was part of a road reserve.
Musisi later demolished the structure last year, leaving the investors ruing the loss.
"This is a clear case of abuse of office which should be investigated by your office which should be brought to book," Lukwago says, in the letter to the IGG, copied to the Minister for Kampala and the Inspector General of Police, the Executive Director, the five division mayors, councillors, all directors and Clerk to Authority.
Lukwago admits that he was introduced to Foton by Minister Muruuli Mukasa, before the Chinese firm offered them air tickets to Beijing with his team. His team also included Michael Niwagaba aka Toyota, who is President Museveni's younger brother and was in Beijing to represent Muruuli Mukasa.
"I was never given any money or any kind of inducement but the Beijing Mayor had accepted to pay a return visit [to Kampala]," Lukwago said.
Before KCCA demolished the structure, Vice President Edward Kiwanuka Ssekandi wrote to Musisi on September 6, 2012 asking her to allow Foton to complete a temporary structure and operate there for one year before relocating.
"Following our discussion with you yesterday in my office, it was inter alia agreed that, bearing in mind the advanced stages of the construction and the likely negative impact the demolition would have on investor confidence; the investor should be allowed to complete the structure," Ssekandi wrote.
When contacted, KCCA spokesman Peter Kaujju said permission was given to Rugazoora and not Foton and it was not meant to construct in a road reserve. But documents seen by The Observer show KCCA's acting Director for Physical Planning, Joseph Ssemambo, responding to Foton's request to encroach on the road reserve while constructing the said structure.
Ssemambo reportedly allowed Foton 12 of the 15 metres of the road reserve they had asked for. An official in the IGG's office said he was aware of Lukwago's petition.

Chile - New Mexico Red
Amy Anderson of the Madd Momma and The Kid barbecue team loves black pepper. It plays a key role in this rub.

This recipe and others can be found in the following article:
Borneo's Forest Food
The beef in this dish is coated with egg white, and should be stir fried very quickly so it will remain tender. Eating the red chile pod pieces is not recommended.
This is one of the classic paprika recipes from Hungary. But sure to use only imported paprika in this dish, or the flavor will not be the same. It is traditionally cooked with lard or goose fat and served with dumplings. Serve over egg noodles, plain rice, or boiled potatoes.
Pronounced "saa-tay", these very popular Southeast Asian snack foods make delicious appetizers or a great barbecue dish, and are made with a variety of meats and seafood. For this recipe I have used chicken, cut in traditional strips and threaded on wooden skewers. Substitute pork, or even chicken wings.
The chiles that are traditionally used for this sauce are the ones pulled off the ristras or strings of dried chiles. Ristras are not just used for decoration--this is one method of sun drying or preserving the fall chile crop for use throughout the year. Use this sauce in a number of dishes, as a topping for enchiladas and tacos, as a basis for stews like posole, or any recipe that calls for a red sauce.

There is an indication that the Federal Ministry of Power would be restructured after the conclusion of sale of successor companies of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN).
Minister of State for Power, Hajiya Zainab Kuchi, dropped the hint at the fifth national power sector retreat in Lagos, with a theme: "Strategies towards consolidating sustainable power supply in a privatised industry".
According to the minister, the essence of the restructuring was to deal with the new and inevitable challenges that will come with reforms in the power sector.
She explained that the restructuring exercise would afford the ministry a better and focused platform to undertake its roles in the emerging Nigerian Electricity Supply Industry (NESI) at the same time giving it defined direction in this regard.
"By 2013 the industry is expected to be more private sector-driven, especially as we hope to witness the commissioning of many Independent Power Projects (IPPs)."
The minister also sought for the cooperation of local and international development partners, in ensuring sustainability of power supply along the electricity value chain.
Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola , who was represented by the State's Commissioner for Energy, Mr. Taofik Tijani, noted that the state had implemented a lot of power projects, among them, the 10 megawatts IPP in Marina and 10 megawatts IPP in Alausa.

Learning something new on a twice barn-found beater
*EDIT* I'm including a bunch of the story behind the bike here in the first post just to give a bit more background on the story... If you don't like lots of words, skip down, there are TONS of pics.
Along comes POJ
Have you ever been ice-fishing? Let's just sum it up in two words: It Sucks. Yes, with a capital "S". I have never been very fond of fishing, but Ice fishing? Where you get to walk out on a huge chunk of ice hoping that it's not really going to break even though you keep hearing cracks like gunshots and friends telling stories of dynamite retrieving dogs that like to hide under brand new trucks parked on the ice? Did I also mention it's usually quite cold when you do this? Basically, you go out on a frozen lake. Drill or hack a hole in the ice. Drop a line in and then sit and watch this hole. Yup, pretty darn fun.
For some reason, at about the age of 15, I actually thought this was "fun". Let's pretend your 15. You got up at 4:00 in the morning some freezing winter day during Christmas break cause the early fisher gets the fish, or something like that. You've been standing on a frozen lake in the middle of the Alberta Prairies, where the wind has likely been blowing about 30 mph all week. The sun FINALLY comes up. You're bored. You haven't had a single bite.
Obviously, it's time to do something else. Not much else around but a couple of ancient run down grain bins on the side of the leg. Guess it's time to go exploring! My friend and I wandered over to the shore which was part of an old farm yard. The grain bins were in pretty sorry shape. We peaked in one or two to find nothing of interest. One of them, on the other hand, had a great deal of interesting lumps of metal coated in a warm blanket of dust patiently waiting out the winter. Motorcycles! Hundreds of them! Parts hanging from the rafters! Extra motors lined up waiting to be installed in future projects!
Okay, not really. There were a couple of bent up frames, 3 or 4 engines that had seen much better days, several used tires, and one half of a motorcycle. Well, maybe more like two thirds of a motorcycle. This two thirds of a motorcycle was the one that started it all!
We spent a couple of hours in the shed, poking through all of the stuff and dreaming of all the things we could do. All these tires, a Hodaka motor that kicked over, bits of motorcycle frames, we could make a killer go-cart!!! The two thirds of a motorcycle we inspected carefully. It was ROUGH. It had no back wheel. Engine covers were off, engine was stuck, side cover was missing, tire (the front one, cause the back one didn't exist!) was flat, center stand was bent out of shape, and lots of dings, dents, and rust.
It was OLD. Metal everything. We weren't too interested, because at the time we were into the REAL dirt bikes- like the CR60, YZ80, and IT400. This old thing was a boat anchor. We thought we could do SOMETHING with it though, and all of the other parts had to be worth something.
Luckily, my friends dad was a realtor and he knew exactly who owned the property. We called him up and asked what his plans were for all of that junk, to which he replied, "Take anything you want!"
Didn't need to tell us twice!!!
We zipped back out there later that day with my friends dads little pickup. There was a brief encounter with a slightly irate farm hand who was a little perturbed that we were loading a bunch of stuff in the back of the truck. We explained to him what his boss had told us, and I guess that was good enough for him because he left us alone to gather our junk.
At this point, I need to say something about garages. My parents, well, my Dad, has a thing for junk. He collects it by the ton. He's very good at presentation though, so you don't really notice it. Unless you happen to be a friend of his or even a friend of mine that has garage space or a farm where old dead tractors, combines, trucks, lawnmowers, etc could be stored. Needles to say, our garage was quite full of STUFF. Cant remember for sure but at the time I think he was working on restoring an old wood burning cook stove and the second Honda Odyssey, both of which turned out really nice and are even still in use (sorta) today. Between his projects, tools, spare parts, and the two cars in that garage, there wasn't much room for any of my projects.
This wasn't as big a deal as it could have been. You see, Clint's Dad had a LARGE shop behind there house, and he never used it. At one point I think we had 7 or 8 sleds, 5 or 6 bikes, a fourwheeler, a boat, and several other assorted bits of machinery in various stages of disrepair. It was a great shop. Had a big sliding door, a loft for storing parts, and most importantly, a HEAT SOURCE!
My parents garage was stuffed full. I was not allowed to have a motorcycle. Hmmm… Two strikes against me. Just meant we had to haul all of the stuff over to Clints house and clear a spot for it in his garage.
It didn't take long for us to come up with a very fitting name for the bike: POJ. Piece. Of. Junk. Pronounced "Podge". It was trashed. Bent handlebars. Missing grips. No back tire. Engine seized. Airbox missing. Carb cover missing. Oil cable missing. Clutch lever missing. The bike was 30 years old, weighed a TON, the list could go on and on. I do believe its only saving grace was that it was MINE! Well, half mine anyways… I still wasn't allowed to have a motorcycle, but it seems my parents were okay with me having HALF of a bike (maybe more like a ¼ of a bike, since there was only half a bike there!) as long as it didn't come home.
We spent weeks working on POJ. Every spare minute I had was involved with tinkering on that stupid bike. The biggest problem was, of course, the fact that it was seized. I didn't have money to spend on this thing, nor did I really want to at that point. It was just kinda fun be able to say that I had a motorobike! As brilliantly talented and gifted 14 yr olds, we came up with an excellent way of un-seizing the bike. We pulled the head off, soaked it in WD40, and then proceeded to spend the next 4 weeks jumping up and down on the kickstarter. Every now and then we would try heating up the cylinder with a little torch. Soak, Heat, Jump, Repeat. Can you see this going anywhere? We eventually gave up.
I guess at this point I should point out that as a younger kid, my Dad referred to me a lot as "tenacious". At the time, I thought he was cussing at me or something, but I really don't give up on anything to easily. After a short break from our hammer, I was back tinkering with POJ. I don't remember how long it sat there in Clint's garage, but it seems like it was at least a couple of months. Don't remember what we were working on at the time, could have been the IT400 or we may have even had the El Tigre from Heck by then. Anyways, one night I went over and decided to putter with POJ.
I forwent the heat and hammer and just decided to jump on the kickstarter. Remember, it didn't have a back wheel. It was sitting on the centerstand and I hopped on it pretty hard expecting resistance… and there was none. POJ tipped backwards, I went flying, parts were raining from the sky, but POJ was unsiezed! We whooped and hollered and thought we had made the breakthrough of the century. We were so excited we vowed to get it running that night.
Have you ever set something down, turned away, and turned back a few seconds later to find the thing GONE!? Removing the head on POJ was a pretty simple task: remove 4 cap headed extra long nuts, remove head, remove gasket. Viola, head is off! For some reason, the spot I had set the 4 nuts (on top of the woodstove) only contained THREE NUTS. No big deal, we got the thing unsiezed so how hard could it be to find a nut? Famous last words.
Granted, it had been several weeks since I had taken the head off and set the head bolts on the top of the stove, but the other three were still there, so the last one COULDN'T have been very far! It seems like I spent weeks searching the shop for that stupid little nut but now that I think about it it was probably only an hour or two. I did end up finding it- mixed in with a pile of parts that at one point had been a Suzuki Titan 500. At least, I'm pretty sure it came from POJ and not from the Titan… Either way, it fit, it looked like the others, and it worked.
I slapped the head on (upside down, it turns out, as I discovered 15 years later) and set about getting the thing to run. The fact that it was the dead of winter didn't deter me- I had ridden bikes in the snow before, and I'm pretty sure at this point I had even invented my "ski-bike". Imagine my chagrin when I suddenly and unexpectedly had a free motor with good compression- and no spark.
Electronics and I get along about as well as cats and water. It really doesn't make much sense to me other than if you do it wrong, the smokes gets out and I'll be darned if you can get the smoke back in. I didn't realize this at the time, but a couple of years later I was tinkering with a Honda Twinstar that also had no spark. Very bad experience, both with stealerships and my fat fingers, that has led to a lifetime of angst for all things electronic. Don't get me wrong, I can and do wire / troubleshoot / fix electronics, its just not my favourite thing in the whole wide world. The next few months were long and uneventful. I figured (rightly so it turned out) that the reason for the lack of spark was largely due to the missing key switch. There were 7 or so wires that were just hanging out of the battery area. I tried every combination I could think of with those five wires before I realized that one was a battery ground and one was a battery hot… Hmmm.. wonder what happens if I hook it up to power?
After even more experimenting, cleaning points, trying 50 different spark plugs, and hooking a battery up to it, I finally hit on a combination that GOT THE BIKE TO SPARK!!! One of the extra wires had to be grounded, and two of them had to be jumpered to power.
The second I had spark, it took all of three seconds to screw the plug in, squirt some gas through the carb, and give it a kick. WOW, is this bike every loud. IT RUNS!!! Well, it runs as long as you keep squirting gas in it while its hooked up to the battery charger. Oh yeah, and theres still no back tire.
Having triumphed over the biggest problem and getting the bike to run, there really wasn't much left to do. As all good things seem to do, the story came to an end not to much later.
I did manage to score some parts from a motorcycle nut and get POJ on the road. This guy makes me look like an amateur. He had probably more than 100 bikes in various states of decompose. Waterbuffalos, Suzuki ram airs, Honda scramblers, dirt bikes, dual sports, street bikes, you name it, he had it! In his pile were two or three old Yamaha 100's. Unfortunatley, most of them were Twinjets and built more for street. The twinjet is one sweet looking maching. Looks just like POJ but they had a TWO CLINDER 100cc oil injected engine sits under the tank! He "lent" me a back wheel that turned out to be too small but still worked and a few other little bits and pieces.
Armed now with the major missing piece and enough bicycle parts that I thought I could get it "on the road", I set to work. The end result was a ratty old bike with a teeny back wheel, a rats nest of wiring hanging out from under the seat, a CAR BATTERY tied on to the rear rack with an old bicycle inner tube, bicycle cables cut / bent / tied on to get working throttle and brakes, and positively no silencer. Quite the opposite, in fact… It had a pipe in the shape of a megaphone, and when I say POJ was loud, POJ was LOUD.
The maiden voyage… I don't recall exactly how well it went, but if my memory serves me correctly it was something like this: Dump just enough gas in for it to run for about 3 minutes. There was no fuel petcock, so we had just jammed a rubber stopper in the hole and ran a line from the special crossover bungs on the underside of the tank directly to the carb. The needle in the carb didn work worth a hoot so as soon as you put gas in it, it started spraying gas all over the place out the overflow. Once the gas was in and leaking (pre-mix, of course, cause the oil lines were long gone even though the tank was still there), hook the piece of extension cord we cut up over the positive terminal on the car battery tied to the back. Wiggle said connection until the dash lights came on, and then kick the starter! It started relatively well- usually first or second kick. Drat. Forgot earplugs. Shut bike off by removing extension cord from battery. Find helmet / ear plugs or roll the bike outside so the echo in the shed wouldn't cause my head to implode. Re-attach cable.
Kick. Kick. Kick. Kick. Dump in more gas cause it all leaked out. Kick. Hey, its running! Click it into first, slowly let out the clutch, annnnnnddddd we're moving!!! Give it a little gas and shift into second. What?! Neutral? Where's second? Oh. Who the heck does the shift pattern ALL DOWN!?
At this point, POJ's story gets a little blurry. Life, as it is said, is what happens while you are busy making other plans. I had grand dreams for POJ. Like a dying fire, they cooled and eventually went out with the onset of winter. It was a running bike, true, but it was ancient, heavy, loud, and unreliable. Turns out a fellow student at school was looking for something ancient, heavy, and loud. Well, he was really just looking for something that ran and he could actually ride. We eventually struck a deal- I gave him POJ in return for a '76 Kawasaki KE175 that someone had taken great time to polish, shine, and update, then promptly blew the motor. I do remember taking POJ for one last spin on a VERY cold February evening. The next evening I was pushing the Kawasaki into POJ's special parking place on the dark side of the garage- the side where my Dad piled all of his really REALLY useless stuff. That's sayin something.
I was getting pretty good with wrenches. My parents had sent me to live with a friend of theirs in the summers that had a lawnmower repair shop and I had a learned a thing or 3 about engines. Mostly 4 stroke lawnmowers, true, but a thing none the less! I was confident I could figure this bike out in no time. Heck, it was practically brand new!
Little did I know. I never did come up with a good name for the KE, but if I had, it would have been something like Money Pitt, Pushmehome, Purgatory, or something along those lines. I should have just doused it in gasoline, lit a match, and walked away.
Eventually, I ended up with POJ again, and lets start our story there.
So this could be interesting...
This was my first ever bike. Kind of a fun story- a friend and I were ice fishing about 15 yrs ago and we got cold / bored, and started exploring. Found a shed with a pile of old bike junk in it, of which was this bike we have since lovingly named POJ (Piece Of Junk). We contacted the owner and he gave it to us. We hauled it home, got it un-stuck, found a rear wheel for it, strapped a 12v car battery to the back rack, and road the crap out of it. :lol3 I sold / traded it away about 10 yrs ago, my friend ended up with it back about 2 yrs later and gave it back to me. Its been sitting in my parents shed since then, but now my pa wants it gone, so its going home with me this trip. Planning on putting her back together with some fresh paint / parts and ridin her again!!!
I popped the motor out one summer several years ago thinking I was going to restore it. Alas, the summer went to quickly and that was as far as I got. :cry
There are a suprisingly lot of parts available on fleebay for this bike, apparently they were pretty popular over in Thailand?
Found some info here: http://www.classicyams.com/brochures...brochures.html
Lead me to believe I have a '69 YL2C-A. According to the vin and this page: http://www.classicyams.com/spare-par...menumbers.html what I have is a '67 YL2C. Still not 100% sure.
Anyone else got one of these? I'm thinking it would be fun to semi-cafe it, basically just low handlebars and leave everything else stock, unless I can find a cool custom expansion chamber?
I've got an L5T-A with a YL-2 4 speed box engine in it and a YG5-T that has a 100 cc Lifan Honda clone grafted into it.
The frames are for most parts identical except for minor small details.
This bike is also the basis for the FS1E or "Fizzie" beloved by a lot of Brits as being their first bike. There are a lot of old parts available.
From my experience with the YL-2 engine was that you should be careful about who you buy NOS parts from. There are some Rocky piston/rings sets that had badly machined ring lands. Making the YL-2 more perky may have bad side issues with the old dynamo/starter, as it's often a cause of vibration and has a lot of extra flywheel weight.
That being said, in my first Dirt/flat track race I had a pair of tricked out Yamaha YL-2s hand my Suzi TS 100 it's hinder. But I think being a novice didn't help my chances either.
My project in waiting:-
Just have to finish building our new house before attacking the job! :rofl
We're getting ready to head home so I decided it would be easier to haul this bike down with the engine back in it. Spent 4 bucks for the missing hardware, took me about 1/2 an hour to pop the motor back in even with my two boys helping! Fun, simple bike.
Gonna have to clean up the points and advance mechanism...
Is it the bike or the Thing going," BRAAAAAAAAAP?" :evil
As of about 20 minutes ago... they both do. :deal
Good one! :lol3
Made a bit more progress last week. Got it home, spent some time figuring out the wiring and deciding what I want to do with it.
Wiring was a mess, the key switch is not the right one for this bike so it doesnt plug in and I dont have a key for it anyways. Took it apart and "made" a key to fit it...
I'm now pretty familiar with YL2 wiring. :lol3
Found the remnants of a birds nest behind all the wires. :huh
Thought I had it all figured out and suddenly lost spark. Turned out to be points in dire need of cleaning. Took em off, cleaned em up and filed them flat and walla, spark!
Makin progress. Got the new carb and cables, upper tripple clamp, and some other odds and ends in the mail yesterday.
Also installed the air fillter can... WOW was that hard. Its bolted on top to the frame and on bottom to the engine, which means you have to have the engine loose in order to get the bolts to line up.
Still to come: Clubman handle bars, bar end mirrors, and new shoes! Got a trick idea for a cafe racer "bump" behind the seat too, using another gas tank turned around and cut up.
Yea, parts!!!
Good Grief... Spent 3 frickin hours last night just getting the stinkin throttle cable to work right. Got the cables all attached, the oil pump set up, the cafe bars on, and the starter button wired up. Also got the engine cover back on over the carb with all the caps and plugs and lines. Hopin to get the other side done tonight, then do tires on Sat.
Took it for its maiden voyage this afternoon. Went 5 blocks, turned around went 2 blocks and snapped the chain. Coasted the remaining 3. Still have things to do like a kill switch, grips, bar end mirrors, front brakes and tire, misc nuts and bolts, and now, a new chain...
Thats pretty sweet dorkpunch, good story behind it too.
Thats just the story of how I got it... I havent told the story of how we caught the muffler on fire trying to make it quite... the CAR battery tied to the back rack to make it run... or how I traded it off, went away for a couple of years, and my friend ended up getting it back and gave it back to me. Lotsa memories. Not many of actually RIDING it, but hours and hours and HOURS of trying to get the dang thing to run.
That's nice, dryside bikes tend to age better than their rainbelt cousins.
I noticed someone has removed the prone to fracturing front fender and put a fork brace in it's place. I'd probably remove the overlay trail sprocket as it's going to cause problems with the chain.
It looks like you're running the L5T rear sprocket, those tend to lug the engine a bit in fourth with the 4 speed gear box, but with your 'cafe' set up it might work great. It's just a bit too high a gearing for a trailbike with 2.75"X17" trials pattern tread tires.
I have an extra key and ignition switch plus regulator.
Yup, the fender was long gone when we found the bike. The brace looks pretty home made, but I like the fenderless look.
The tires are 3.00x18, the small rear sprocket is a 37 tooth. Dont know what it will do yet, had it up to about 40 when the chain snapped.
I'd def. be interested in your ignition if it has a working key!!!

The Peoples Democratic Movement (PDM) has been thrown into deeper crisis as the zonal leaders of the movement have disowned the new party bearing the name of the movement.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), registered the movement as a political party last week with, Alhaji Bashir Yusuf Ibrahim as its interim national chairman.
The group in a communique released yesterday from its expanded meeting which held in Abuja ,said they remained members of PDM as a pressure group within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The movement under the chairmanship of Senator Abubakar Mahdi said it was dismayed with the manner the movement was secretly converted into a political party against the original vision of its founding fathers.
In a communiqué issued and signed at the end of the meeting by eight leaders, namely Senator Abubakar Mahdi (Chairman), Senator Ifeanyi Araraume (Southeast leader), Alhaji Abdullahi Abdulkadir Mohammed (Northwest leader), Chief Ejiofor Onyia (South/South leader), Kabiru Bawa (Northeast), Dr. Bala Ahmed Tafida (North Central leader), Alhaji Shuaib Oyedokun, Alhaji Shuaibu Abdullahi and Chief Oluponnle Ebo, movement said they were not consulted before some of their members used the name of the movement to apply to INEC for registration.
The communiqué reads in part: "An expanded meeting of the PDM (movement not party) was called on 22nd day of August, 2013 by the Chairman Senator Abubakar Mahdi to brief members on the registration of the movement as a political party.
"In attendance were the secretary; Chief Dubem Onyia, Director of Finance, Shuaib Abdullahi and Zonal Leaders of the movement.
"In their reaction the Zonal Leaders observed with dismay the way and manner in which PDM was secretly converted into a political party against the original vision of its founding fathers.
"A situation where Founding Fathers, National Caucus, Zonal Leaders and State Management Committees were not consulted is unacceptable.

YESTERDAY New York City developer Forest City Ratner abandoned the design of a September 11 memorial it commissioned after the project brought outcries from firefighters and the public. Forest City Ratner, which manages fire department headquarters where a memorial will eventually stand, expressed a desire for the memorial to be a respected object in the community, a reality that clearly wasn't coming to pass with the proposed statue.
What the new memorial will look like is not known, but Fire Commissioner Nicholas Scoppetta stated that he would work with Forest City Ratner to "ensure a fitting memorial."
At the request of the New York fire department, a monument inspired by the now famous September 11 photo taken by Thomas Franklin of the Record was altered to satisfy politically correct sensibilities. The three firefighters--all Caucasian--captured in the photograph were replaced in the model with three unidentified firefighters of different races.
Both the Record and the three firefighters in the photograph retained legal representation to try to halt the project. The Record claimed Forest City Ratner was violating the paper's copyright, and the firefighters claimed rights to their images. Attorney Bill Kelly, representing both the firefighters and the Record, sent letters to Forest City Ratner and the FDNY demanding that they cease construction of the memorial. Kelly gave them a deadline that expired today; after that he planned to pursue litigation to obtain an injunction.
