Mark, tonight, you'll realize, the God we'll be talking about is the one that needs to spare your life from my wrath when I'm done with you. I am the champ, and it will stay that way after tonight. Show me your best, because that's all it will do, is be for show. Tonight is rated X, because the beating I'm going to give you hell of a match, and you'll be the one brought away in a hearse.
Kyojin, it's nice to see you here, I appreciate the words of confidence from you. I'll prove to everyone tonight that I am much better then most of these people think. Good luck in your match, not that you need it, but regardless. Tonight, I will rip Mark's guts out, and he will be without Guts, or Glory!

San Diego. -- Lately, you hear people talking, with some solemnity, of the Great Depression of 1992. Newspapers are filled with dismal polls and doomsaying prophets-for-profit. But what do they know? What do we know?
Most Americans today weren't around for the real thing; we grew up hearing stories of it, the echoes of real hunger.

Question: What saved 500,000 gallons of petroleum and kept an estimated 4,000 tons of greenhouses gases from escaping into the atmosphere over Western North Carolina in 2011?
Answer: Efforts in the Asheville area to promote alternative fuels, cleaner cars and better air quality for Buncombe, Haywood, Henderson, Madison and Transylvania counties.
Those efforts, which have been underway for eight years, were recognized last week when the U.S. Department of Energy officially designated the Land-of-Sky Clean Vehicle Coalition as the nation's 85th Clean Cities Coalition during a ceremony at the N.C. Arboretum. The designation makes the coalition eligible for more grants to accelerate the process of improving air quality.
"We're so pleased to officially add Land of Sky to the list of designated clean cities coalitions," said national clean cities Director Dennis Smith. "The coalition's leadership and its stakeholders have already demonstrated an impressive commitment to reducing petroleum use in western North Carolina, and we look forward to seeing even more great things from them in the future."
Bill Eaker of Land-of-Sky Regional Council said that in 2004 the region had only about 100 alternative-fuel
vehicles and a handful of gas-electric hybrids. "Now fleets have 1,300 alternative-fuel vehicles, and there are over 1,700
gas electric vehicles registered by N.C. Department of Motor Vehicles" he said.
"When we had the opportunity to pursue clean cities designation, we jumped at the chance," Eaker said. "We saw it as an effective means to not only improve our air quality, but also support national energy security."
"I've been working in the environmental field for 30 years, and I've never come across a program like Clean Cities, with such strong partnerships at the federal, state, and local levels, and in both the public and private sectors. We're excited to be a part of it," Eaker said.
The designation will help make Asheville known as the greenest city in the Southeast, according to Maggie Ullman, city sustainability coordinator. "Fuel and fleet are a huge part of the solution to reducing our carbon footprint, and the coalition offers a workable road map to get there. This means so much to Asheville."
She also cited tangible environmental benefits. "Those high-elevation balds we have are really special. As we pursue alternative fuels, we are better able to protect those places," Ullman said.
"Coalition stakeholders have already benefited during the period we were working on designation," Eaker said. "We secured over $1 million in DOE funds that helped the cities of Asheville and Hendersonville, Henderson County and Mission Health System purchase 37 compressed natural gas vehicles and expand the fueling capacity of the Asheville and Henderson County public access CNG fueling stations."
The Department of Energy does more than just provide money. It also provides advice. The Petroleum Reduction Planning Tool shows the benefits that come from any specific strategy regarding alternative fuels, advanced vehicles or fuel economy improvements.
"Fleets across the country are trying to reduce their petroleum use and cut emissions," said Witt Sparks of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. "This tool provides insights into which strategies will help ? A fleet manager can sit down in front of a single Web page, explore multiple strategies, and know what the energy and environmental impacts will be before making any substantial investments."
"I love petroleum, but its day is done. We need to move past oil-based and even coal-based power all the way to more renewable energy," said Stan Cross of Brightfield Transportation Systems. His firm offers electric rental cars for tourists to use on the Blue Ridge Parkway.
With its new designation, Land-of-Sky can continue to help make that possible.

I didn't enjoy at all my stay there. They aren't flexible at all with the check in hour ( we arrived at the hotel at 12:00 and we were told that the check-in starts at 13:30). The breakfast is somewere on a corridor and sometimes it smells quitte odd from the kitchen. Very poor breakfast, with the cheapest products on market (first price yogurt, juices, etc. from metro). Very good coffee though. The room was very unclean. Especially the walls. On top of this, the sink was broken.

2014 Performance
"The Spirit of Harriet Tubman"
Written and performed by Leslie McCurdy
There are many plays about Harriet Tubman, but none share her entire life story like a visit with The Spirit of Harriet Tubman.
Leslie McCurdy invokes the "spirit" of Harriet Tubman as she portrays the life of the famous Underground Railroad conductor, recreating stories familiar and some rarely told, using words said to have been Harriet Tubman's own.
Through it all we learn of the faith and conviction that drove Harriet Tubman to follow her dreams.
View this Study Guide for more information on the performance, discussion topics, classroom activities and background information.
The Spirit of Harriet Tubman is brought to you in part by Prologue to the Peforming Arts

. . . perhaps.
I may be changing my mind about this one, but the more I research the legal history behind the questions of corporate personhood, the more it becomes apparent that corporate entities need certain constitutional protections.
For example, if "equal protection under the law" isn't extended to corporate associations, then if, say, the FCC didn't like something that the New York Times was publishing, they could send police to confiscate their printing presses. Without the legal status of personhood, corps could not enter into legally binding contracts, be sued, or file suit themselves. If Pepsi were to successfully lobby congress to ban Coke advertisements, there would be no legal recourse for Coke, as the first amendment could not protect them.
My point is simply that stripping corporations of their "citizenship" will likely cause far more problems than it will solve, in the long run. Decades of legal precedent will have to be re-litigated before anybody will have a clear understanding of what protections do and do not extend to corporate associations, and at what cost to society?
Does anybody else agree? If not, where does my argument fail? And, if it is true that corporations require a legal status comparable to that of citizens, how might we limit the influence of money on policy-making without infringing upon the requirements of "equal protection" under the law?
Interested in what both sides have to say on this issue.

Reviews for the Asus G73SW-BST6
Source: PC Mag
The Asus G73SW-BST6 has the graphics chops to handle the latest action games and the CPU horsepower to breeze through just about anything that you throw at it. Its battery life is relatively short, but chances are you won't be hauling this behemoth too far from an outlet anyway. A 1,920–by-1,080 display would be a huge improvement, as would the addition of a Blu-ray drive. The Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch (Thunderbolt) offers a more well-rounded feature set and better all-around performance, but it costs $900 more than the Asus G73SW-BST6.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M:
High-end DirectX 11 graphics card based on the GF106 chip using GDDR5 graphics memory (up to 1.5 GB).
With these GPUs you are able to play modern and demanding games fluently at medium detail settings and HD resolution.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
2630QM: Fast Quad-core processor based on the Sandy Bridge architecture with an integrated graphics card and dual-channel DDR3 memory controller. » Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
17.3": Meanwhile the 17 inch display size is a more frequently offered standard format for desktop-replacements. The DTR-laptops can't be carried easily, need much energy but on the other side texts can be read easily and high resolutions are no problem. DTR mainly are intended for stationary usage on desks, where the weight and the energy need are unimportant.
» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
3.9 kg: This laptop is heavy below average, compared with the average of notebooks. Therefore especially desktop replacements fit in this class of weight.
Asus: ASUSTeK Computer Incorporated, a Taiwanese multinational company, produces motherboards, graphics cards, optical drives, PDAs, computer monitors, notebook computers, servers, networking products, mobile phones, computer cases, computer components, and computer cooling systems. The company's 2007 revenues reached US$6.9 billion. ASUS also produces components for other manufacturers. The Eee PC initiated the netbook boom in 2008.
70%: This rating is bad. Most notebooks are better rated. This is not a recommendation for purchase.

By the way, just because I am surprised that ATWT, AMC, and OLTL were cancelled does not contradict my belief that those cancellations were justified. Justified or not, however, I am shocked that three additional, long-running soaps would be gone in such a short period of time. Prior to GL's cancellation, it had been ten years since another long-running soap was axed. Because GL could have been cancelled in 2003 with justification (but instead was kept on for much too long), I just assumed that all those other soaps would last considerably longer than they did (i.e., about five to seven years longer). It wasn't until later in 2009--once OLTL was left for dead (as a result of AMC being moved to LA) and ATWT was cancelled in December--when I realized that the genre might be in serious trouble.

late 14c., "exorcism," from Late Latin adjurationem (nominative adjuratio) "a swearing to," noun of action from past participle stem of adjurare (see adjure). Originally a term in exorcism (with conjuration). General sense is from 17c.
a solemn appeal whereby one person imposes on another the obligation of speaking or acting as if under an oath (1 Sam. 14:24; Josh. 6:26; 1 Kings 22:16). We have in the New Testament a striking example of this (Matt. 26:63; Mark 5:7), where the high priest calls upon Christ to avow his true character. It would seem that in such a case the person so adjured could not refuse to give an answer. The word "adjure", i.e., cause to swear is used with reference to the casting out of demons (Acts 19:13).


text: No recent wiki edits to this page. OverviewMechWarrior 4: Vengeance is a computer game developed by FASA Interactive and published by Microsoft. It was released on November 24, 2000. This game is the fourth game in the MechWarrior series. It takes place in BattleTech universe where the pinnacle of all war machines are huge, heavily armed robots called BattleMechs. The player pilots one of these 'Mechs and uses a variety of available weapons to battle enemy 'Mechs, tanks and other vehicles. An expansion pack, MechWarrior 4: Black Knight, was released on October 31, 2001, and a subsequent stand-alone expansion, MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries was released in November 7, 2002.Free ReleaseTo celebrate the BattleTech Universe's 25th anniversary, a free release of MechWarrior 4 was planned, but legal red tape held the release back by a year. Fortunately, the MechWarrior 4 Free Release saw the light of day and is available at MekTek.com. For more information, please consult the MekTek MechWarrior 4 Free Release page.PlotThe game takes place on the Inner Sphere planet Kentares IV and its moon. The player takes control of Ian Dresari, son of famed Clan War hero Duke Eric Dresari and heir to the throne of Kentares.A civil war erupts on the planet after William Dresari, a cousin of Ian, betrays the family and seizes the throne for himself under the banner of Katherine "Katrina" Steiner. A surprise attack by Steiner forces on the Dresari royal palace leaves the majority of the royal family dead. Ian meets up with his uncle Sir Peter Dresari on the moon orbiting Kentares to launch a guerrilla campaign to take back Kentares IV from Steiner. Ian fights alongside fellow resistance MechWarriors, Casey Nolan, Jen McQuarrie, and Jules Gonzales, and their commander Elise Rathburn in various missions. The resistance abandons its base on the moon and sets up camp for the first time in Kentares' arctic regions.There are two possible endings to this game which depend on actions taken by the player throughout the game.Game ModesCampaignThe campaign contains 26 missions divided into 7 "ops", each with different environments. Each operation contains about 3-6 objectives, with the exception being Op 7. In the first few missions only a few smaller 'Mechs are available. As the game progresses, more 'Mechs and weapons become available. These come in the form of salvage from previous missions. Between missions the player can outfit 'Mechs with different weapons and also assign 'Mechs to one of your three Lancemate slots.Instant ActionThis mode lets you play with any of the 21 'Mechs in the game. You can play any of the campaign missions (even those which you cannot access in campaign yet) or wave missions in which you can select up to four other 'Mechs and fight them in a deathmatch.There is also a master trial mode in which the computer randomly picks a stock 'Mech for you. It also randomly picks one map to play on and three stock 'Mechs as enemies. You have to successively destroy all three enemies in a one-on-one fight.MultiplayerMultiplayer has 9 game types and about 12 maps built in, with more user-made maps available for download.The hud of a mechGame types:Destruction - simple deathmatchTeam Destruction - team deathmatch.Attrition - similar to deathmatch, but points are awarded for damage dealt.Team Attrition - Attrition, but in teams.Capture the Flag - points are awarded for bringing the flag from enemy base to yours.King of the Hill - points are awarded for staying in specific area of the map.Team King of the Hill - King of the hill, but in teams.Steal the Beacon - points are awarded for carrying the beacon.Escort - points are awarded for destroying enemy VIP (a small 'Mech).The multiplayer is no longer hosted by Microsoft, and it isn't supported by MSN Zone. However, Gamespy Arcade still works.The 'Mechs'Mechs are classified into four weight categories. They are also either from Clans or Inner Sphere. Clan 'Mechs are generally superior to Inner Sphere 'Mechs of the same weight.Inner Sphere 'MechsLight 'MechsNameInformationRavenManufacturer: Hellespont 'Mech WorksModel: RVN-3LClass: LightCost:

LasersGameplayMechwarrior 4 features vastly simplified gameplay compared to previous Mechwarrior entries. Players use their 'Mechs weaponry to attack other 'Mechs as well as tanks, aircraft and buildings. Like previous BattleTech games, weapons generate heat and players must manage their firing rates to prevent overheating.In Mechwarrior 4, players no longer have to worry about cooking off their ammunition at high heat levels however. Destroying a 'Mech's legs is no longer instant death. Instead destroying a leg means the leg is merely "crippled" causing a severe speed drop as well as removing the ability to walk backwards. Players can no longer direct their jump jets and jump jets merely allow the 'Mech to jump into the air for a period of time.Like previous games, the damage model is color coded ranging from Green, Yellow, Orange, Red, flashing Red and Black; Green is full or near full armor and Black is completely destroyed. Weapons destruction typically happens when the part is flashing Red. There is an odd property in the damage model where attacking a destroyed body part will not only transfer the damage to another body part but also bypass some of the armor on that part. The leg will transfer damage to the other leg and the left and right torsos will transfer damage to the center torso.The 'Mech Lab has also been simplified. In previous entries, players must assign where they want to carry ammunition and heatsinks. This is no longer the case in Mechwarrior 4. Ammunition and heatsinks simply take up weight. Heatsinks cannot be destroyed and destroying the weapon will also destroy the ammunition assigned to that weapon. Players can no longer assign what type of engines they want and the types of equipment that a 'Mech can carry is preset. Jump jets can only be put on certain 'Mechs and players can no longer choose how many jump jets they want.Weapon placements are now color coded: Red for energy, Green for missiles and Yellow for ballistics. Weapons take up slots, with more powerful weapons such as the PPC taking up three or even four slots. The 'Mechs have a certain amount of color coded slots on each hardpoint and only weapons that match the color can be placed there. Clan 'Mechs and some Inner Sphere designs have white colored "Omni slots" which allow any weapon to be placed there. Ammunition for missiles and ballistics can be added in one ton increments.Players can assign the tonnage of armor to each part of the 'Mech in 0.1 ton increments, with minimum being 0.1 tons of armor on the part and the maximum predetermined based on the 'Mech. There are three types of armor. The standard Ferro Fibrous armor provides the base amount of protection. Reflective and Reactive armor types weight twice as much but halves the damage from energy and ballistics weapons respectively. Parts in Mechwarrior 4 require at least two hits to destroy regardless of armor. Therefore a 'Mech with only 0.1 tons of armor on the center torso can take a direct hit from a PPC but still operate. Because of this mechanic, players often remove all the armor from the head and rear torso; these parts are incredibly hard to hit and even if they are hit, they require at least two shots to be completely destroyed.'Mech PacksIn August 2002 Microsoft released two add-ons to MechWarrior 4: Vengeance, the Clan 'Mech Pack and Inner Sphere 'Mech Pack. Each pack contains four new 'Mechs and a few other bonuses. Many players were disappointed by the fact that new 'Mechs can be used only in instant action or multiplayer, and not in campaign.'Mechs from Clan 'Mech Pack:Arctic Wolf - MediumCauldron-Born - HeavyKodiak - AssaultMasakari - Assault'Mechs from Inner Sphere 'Mech Pack:Dragon -HeavyHighlander - AssaultHunchback - MediumZeus - AssaultSoundtrackCD CoverThe Mechwarrior 4: Vengeance soundtrack was composed by Duane Decker and released on CD in 2000.#TitleLength1.Aftermath3:012.Daggers3:243.Mystic2:544.Push2:255.Indecision2:166.T12:237.Mechwarrior 4 Opening Sequence4:188.Ominous0:309.Kick It2:3710.Action Pack1:4711.Campaign Opening Video3:0612.DFA2:3513.Eerie Theory1:1014.Emmity Road2:0115.Closing Video A1:2916.T22:1517.Rockque2:1318.Slow Burn2:2519.Vista0:4420.Wednesday 71:3221.Let There Be3:0422.Impact1:0823.Recharge0:4624.Closing Video B1:2625.Steiner Defeat2:3326.Core2:3227.Panarama3:0428.Armed1:5229.Sander2:2430.T32:1631.Stutter Shark2:2832.Davion Theme2:20

New schools superintendent Tony Smith says he aims to get people to put politics and ideology aside — yes, he's talking about doing this in Oakland! — and focus on what works for kids.
As evidence that this was possible, Smith said the goals expressed by teachers union president Betty Olson-Jones at a recent one-on-one meeting overlapped with some of the core principles that emerged during an event organized by the new, reform-minded coalition Great Oakland Public Schools (to which Olson-Jones said she was not invited).
What common ground do you see in OUSD? I wrote a story about Smith's first couple of weeks on the job, which is in today's Trib. You can find it here.

Flight Tracking
Sometimes I have to work up a graphic that's almost purely for the design. The data on this one has very little to do with anyone else and is pretty much a bit of selfish interest tracking my own flights over the past several years. Not to say there weren't other people on those flights or that there isn't some interest in flights in general, but yeah, just making a fun graphic with the data was my main concern. Noting that this only includes tracked data, still noticing a few longitudes yet to track, and fewer populated latitudes, but so many airports yet to add. Odd that my highest altitude was a short leap across the gulf.

Orange Crush
What a whirlwind of a summer. We ended it on a good note before plunging directly into the madness of the fall wedding season by designing a Labor Day party in East Hampton.
The design concept of this event was to feel like a "Pop Up Party" so to speak: simple, bold, graphic and modern – extending the house and surrounding landscape with a giant open-walled, clear span tent. To further integrate the house with the tent, I suggested we extend the patio with temporary decking which we then painted in wide gray and white stripes. You know how I love stripes, so this of course made me very happy, and was quite chic in contrast to our color palette of oranges and whites.
Handwritten projections and graffiti instructed guests to EAT! DRINK! and DANCE! Hand-painted bars in white orange and white stripes, giant tissue paper flowers and umbrellas, and several cans of spray paint later the interior of the house was thoroughly violated. That was fun!
Special thanks to the wonderful team who pulled off this party: Leslie Mastin and Julie Manheimer from State of the Art (event planning), Igor from Allen Party Rental (tent, decking and dance floor) Peter Callahan Catering, Ira from Levy Lighting and DJ David Chang.

Come join the UT Law School Domestic Violence Clinic and Texas RioGrande Legal Aid in screening "No Way Out But One" followed by a discussion.
"In 1994, Holly Collins felt she had run out of legal options and there was simply no other way to keep her children safe. So she kidnapped her own kids and went on the run. Hunted by the FBI, she and the children lived in the shadows with the help of a loosely organized 'underground' that helped victims of domestic violence and abuse find safety. Holly ultimately found safety in the Netherlands. There she became the first American to be granted asylum by the Dutch government as a result of domestic violence."
After the movie, we'll talk about the many issues it raises - ethical lawyering, international parental kidnapping, the intersection between domestic violence and child abuse, and the treatment of domestic violence by the courts.
Bring your friends! Snacks and drinks will be provided!!
If you need an accommodation to participate in this event, please contact the sponsor listed above or the UT Law Special Events Office at firstname.lastname@example.com no later than seven business days prior to the event.

A 650-MW(electric) deuterium-tritium fusion reactor, KARIN-I, has ten moving plasma rings, which are produced by relativistic electron beam injection, heated by a major radius compression, and transported into a linear cylindrical burning section by annularly flowing liquid lithium outside the silicon carbide first wall The liquid lithium not only stabilizes the tilting motion of the rings but also works as the tritium breeder and the main coolant. Energy from the ash-accumulated rings is efficiently recovered at the exit during the major radius expansion. The linear alignment of reactor components ensures easy assembly and disassembly, and also provides for easy maintenance. These features of the reactor result in a net electric output power of 650 MW(electric) with overall plant efficiency of 30%.

The flexibility to allocate completely different IP address for various business use is an advantage by itself for not only that it helps to segregate the completely different domains properly but additionally helps to remove the complexities of sharing the identical IP tackle with every other segments or domains.

Reduce Shopping Cart Abandonment
Research has shown that the longer it takes for a customer to complete a sale, the higher the shopping cart abandonment rate.
OSC Web Dev has developed the shopping cart One Page Checkout in order to close your sales quickly and easily.
When a customer clicks Check Out, most shopping carts lead them through several pages, each gathering account information, addresses, payment information, and finally a consolidated page asking for verification that all of the information is correct. This can lead to as many as 8 pages before the order is accepted.
OSC Web Dev's Onepage Checkout collects all of this information on one page, even loading any information provided from previous pages in to the fields to save more time, such as address information from previous shipping calculations.
If the customer is already logged in to the site, all of their address information is automatically loaded into the shopping cart one page checkout as well. Guest Checkout Support
Some customers are put-off by being forced to create an account before checking out. For many customers and online store business models, this is a completely un-necessary step.
With OSC Web Dev's One Page Checkout, customers can opt to not create an account, simply by not supplying a password. This removes the stigma of "account holders only" that most shopping carts have.
Please check examples bellow:

Flowtech Induction
We made sure to talk to most of the big names in the cam industry, but we also wanted to get some input from a free agent, Ed Curtis of Flowtech Induction. The bulk of Curtis' business is working in conjunction with select dealers and installation shops who want tailor-made valvetrain and cylinder head packages. If you wanted to oversimplify the whole deal, you could just call him a custom camshaft and valvetrain designer. Since Curtis works with a variety of camshaft manufacturers, he has access to cam lobes across the board and can use whatever works best to obtain his goal of a successful combination for the enthusiast.
During this conversation however, Curtis had one really hot topic in mind and wasn't shy about sharing his enthusiasm. "The most recent project I've been working on is our latest camshaft profiles and valvetrain packages for GM's displacement-on-demand (DOD) engines, such as the rectangular-port, L92-based, 6.0L engines. Relate that to current L92 and even the LS3 powerplants and what we'll soon see in the new Camaro." Although Curtis has been using the new Pontiac G8GT variant as the guinea pig, the technology will transfer.
He's been working very hard with one of his valvetrain dealers (New Era Performance Parts in Rochester, New York), and the guys have been doing a ton of dyno testing of various DOD-specific cam profiles. "We've learned a lot and gained a bunch of 'usable' power with these FTI DOD-specific valvetrain packages and New Era's software programming with the DOD electronic control system." Though some enthusiasts might think this kind of setup a nuisance, Curtis assures us: "Many people who contact us want to keep the DOD feature functioning."
Curtis' formula includes proprietary camshaft profiles, a heavy-duty timing set, heavy-wall pushrods, and PAC Racing beehive valve springs. These mechanical items, coupled with the New Era Performance software mods, have resulted in more than 400 rwhp (even with a 3,200-stall converter) from FTI's mule, the Project G8GT. (Remember, think new Camaro when we mention the Poncho.)
The car in question managed 12.39 at the recent NMCA LSX shootout, and that was after averaging 23 mpg on the drive from Rochester to Memphis. Curtis figures it for 11.90 at sea level, especially since the 4,200-pound G8GT was also deep staging to meet the 12.50 index class-no wonder they call these new Pontiacs "Charger Hunters," he says.
So how did Curtis go about extracting all that power from the DOD system? "In the beginning we were a bit worried, but by simply taking the time to measure everything-lifters and their bores, camshaft base circles, rocker arm geometry-we came up with the right valvetrain and lobe design to make it all work perfectly. The result was using the correct base circle and setting the preload properly, so the package was able to work with the stock GM DOD lifter along with the correct pushrod and valve spring kit we supply." Per usual, these camshaft kits include heavy-wall pushrods, aluminum roller rocker arms, and the proper valve spring. The whole thing sounds surprisingly simple, but many a long day was spent getting all this OEM-reliable, Curtis says. In fact, he says customers tell him the DOD is actually a bit quieter that the stock cam and, when using the stock mufflers, very stealthy.
The end result of this development by FTI and NEP is that currently three camshaft packages are "all very streetable," Curtis says, though he admits it will take "a certain temperament" for the aggressive one of the trio. "We also have cam kits that eliminate DOD function, but that's only in about 10 percent of applications," he confided. "90 percent of the interest is in DOD-specific applications and tend to use one of the two small cams."
