San Antonio Spurs' Manu Ginobili is the focus of a new Spanish-language documentary called "El Grito Sagrado" ("The Sacred Cry"). In it, the film covers Manu's early steps to becoming one of the most decorated international players ever to make it to the NBA. From his brother, Leandro, who speaks about how Manu would literally eat dinner and run back the court, Argentine sports journalists who look to Manu's focus and passion for the game as the reasons he is so successful to Ginobili's part in Team Argentina's defeat of Team USA at Indianapolis and much more. This documentary covers everything you want to know about No. 20 including some rare footage of a young Manu in action. Though the documentary is in Spanish, just seeing the footage and photos of Manu is well worth the watch if you do not speak the language. Check it out. (h/t Spurs Report)

Somoene faking a BJJ BB? BJJ police assemble (?)
I have not done the neccesary research to post this in MABS. Posting here to get the ball rolling.
On Sherdog, a white belt posted a video he wanted scored between himself and another white belt. He also mentioned who his instructor was and somehow got into lineage. It looks like some people are questioning it. Just in case some BJJ police are positng here, I have provided the link.

We spend a lot of time improving our combat system because – as we keep repeating – we believe that fighting will be the essence of Hellraid. Our programmers and animators are currently working on new types of melee attacks based on our experience gained from a medieval sword fighting training that we took recently.
Members of the ARMA-PL association showed us a wide range of techniques from various European schools of sword fighting. They practice on daily basis and study the rules of the craft from old books and manuscripts. Thanks to them, we learned, for instance, that the power of a two-handed sword attack comes from the thrust of hands, not from mindless swinging.
We've prepared a short Developer Diary to tell you more about our experience with medieval weaponry and how we're enhancing the melee combat in Hellraid.
Leave us a comment about what you think about the video and if you'd like to see more of them.

Gear Review
Excellent fleece
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I have been looking for a replacement to my Columbia Titanium fleece for a very long time. This jacket definitely is a great replacement and more... The jacket is very warm and comfortable and fitted. I am 5'8, 158lbs and a medium fits the body well, but the overall length is a couple inches short to my preference and the arms length is a couple inches too long. Overall, happy with the purchase since Backcountry got the best price/customer service/return policy and free 2nd day shipping.

Thread: Gender icons?
June 24th, 2008 #1
Gender icons?
Hey all,
I've tried searching the archives about this, but found nothing.
I was wondering whether it's possible to put gender icons next to the avatar/username or thereabout? It would save a lot of confusion when addressing people. I realize that with time you get to know the users better, but when I was new it was a little confusing knowing whether to put 'she' or 'he'
Now I don't know anything about programming so maybe it's too much trouble.
Just thought I'd suggest it anyway, if anyone feels the same waysketchbook / sketchblog / deviantart / facebook / twitter / e-mail

Benefit for 19-year veteran Knotts Halloween Haunt Monster Sandy Graham
It has been brought to our attention about this and wanted to pass this info on to you.
Sandy Graham was diagnosed with a brain tumor in 1996 and had surgery. Most of the tumor was removed. In 2009, the tumor had grown back and another surgery was needed on April 1st, 2010. On July 14, 2010, the prognosis was that the tumor is already growing back and she has an estimated 1 - 2 years left with us. There are many more medications/surgeries she can try and possibly prolong her prognosis but all are at a great cost!
The purpose of the Benefit Scavenger hunt is to raise funds to assist with Sandy's medical expenses and over all care.
This benefit is happening on August 29th, 2010 from 9am-7:30pm @ Disneyland.
This event is not affiliated with the Walt Disney Company. You must register to participate:
Registration is $20.00 per team. Teams are groups of 2 - 4 people.
The proceeds will be donated to Sandy!! Any other donations are welcome!
Registration has already begun and ends on August 15th. The registration fee CAN be paid in advance or on the day of the event (August 29, 2010). Please visit Registration for the link to Paypal to pay in advance with a credit card.

Nick is still paying back his loan by doing some cocksucking for us. Officer "M" broke his in and now it is time to let a new guy use his mouth. Meet Erik! He hails from Russia was was a professional bodybuilder there. He moved to New York about 10 years ago and is a Limo driver here. It turns out that Eric has fucked some female riders in the back of his Limo, and hope to do more. He also loves blowjobs, that's where we come in. While he has let a guy suck his cock in the past, it has always been in a three-way with a girl present. The best we could do was have some girlie porn for him to watch. He was game. He got off knowing that Nick was only sucking his cock as pay back and not willingly. But that didn't stop Eric from fucking Nick's mouth and forcing his head down on it. Nick did a great job at sucking Erik considering it was he was a novice cocksucker. He got Eric hot enough to blow a huge load!

I often have 15 to 20 different layers loaded as background / context for my editing procedure.
When I make edits, say outline a wetland area based on air-photo backdrop, that I want to save to a new shapefile, I am currently having to uncheck the 15 or so other layers, then exporting the one remaining checked layer with the edits I want captured, closing that layer, opening the saved new layer, and rechecking them all to continue on.
To avoid this constant checking / unchecking procedure, would a second column of checkboxes in the overlay control center be useful? Dedicate one row to what is visible, dedicate the second row to what will be saved...something along those lines.
Or perhaps there is something that I am missing in this procedure. Thx.

The horror of left over variance…
After some discussion with Jeremy Fox, and a re-reading of Fox (2006), my understanding of the Price Equation partitioning of effects of biodiversity loss on ecosystem function has been improved. What I thought was a term for residual variance is the context dependent effect. This is analogous to transmission bias in the evolutionary interpretation of the Price Equation.

My ideal match will be someone who will put our relationship as one of their top priorities.

I have 4 sisters and 1 brother. My son is my world and certainly keeps me busy. I enjoy hunting, fishing, hitting the lake, as well as off-roading. I have lived in Houston for 10 years, but enjoy getting away from the big city and enjoying the outdoors. I like seeing and talking to people from various walks of life. I am comfortable going out in khaki shorts and a t-shirt, but also enjoy dressing up for the right date and occasion.
Camping , Dining out , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Travel/Sightseeing
Soccer, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 3-4 times per week.

Driving a guy crazy?
If you liked a girl at one point, how long would it take to stop liking her? What could the girl do to make you go crazy for her?
Most Helpful Opinion
I have just dealt with this problem recently, and I have found out the answer! you must be around him for awhile then, for no reason leave, just kind of avoid him. Show that you have a life, don't always pick up the phone when he calls and take awhile to call him back. Then, just when he's about to lose interest, (let's say 2 weeks) then be around again. It'll drive him crazy, because you know that "time makes the heart grow fonder". Then, compliment him all the time, build his ego up. Suggest things you want to do around him, such things like "I want to go see this movie, but I don't want to go by myself" hint around that you want to do stuff and if he likes you he might go with you. Do unexpected things, like dying your hair, changing up your look, style, this will excite him (not in a sexual way) and he will associate being excited with you.
Wow, those are awesome ideas! I was thinking about changing my look actually! ok I have a little more info though, I'm afraid to play this subtle version of hard to get because he's very emotional, not shy, but just moody I guess. do you think it will still work even if I'm giving him mixed signals? I don't want him to lose interest in me...
- Show Older Hide Older
Its always fun to play with new looks but I agree. Get some other input b4 you do it. As for playing a more subtle hard to get? Maybe not a good idea. Especially if he tends to be a tad moody and emotional. He might feel like you are playing games with him and it could backfire. If you wanna playa little cat and mouse just make sure that you guys have been hanging out for a while and he KNOWS that you like him, Otherwise, like I said, he could get confused and thing you're playing games with him.
Yeah, but eventually, you'll be around and when you are and when you suggest stuff, he'll jump on the oppurtunity to spend more time with you. But, emotional guys are a little harder to deal with because this bothers them quicker and more so I would say make the time shorter, and also since he's emotional try opening up to your feelings around him-it'll do more for him then it would a non-emotional guy.
What Guys Said 2
Men will always want you if they want you once. As to go crazy I assume you mean sex? Try talking sexy on the phone. That works for me. Tell him how much you want him and think about him. The other side of it is either he is a dominant or submissive type of personality. If you know then you are in the drivers seat... Play to it. I don't mean tie me up tie me down stuff... I mean find out if he wants you to jump on him or if he wants to jump on you. If he is a good boy he may want a bad girl or just the opposite. Play to that and some great sex should happen ;)
I would say at least a few months. Why would you ever want to torture somebody like this?
Well he likes me and I like him but he's said he just can't really handle a relationship right now because he's going through a lot of personal stuff right now. I don't want our relationship to get too platonic in the meantime, that's all. I would never intentionally hurt him though.
If you really like him then you need to respect him and his feelings. If he doesn't want to get in a relationship with you because of person stuff then let it go. In the mean time you two can hang out and get to know each other. Be there for him if he needs a friend. Getting close in that way will make it easier for him to see himself being with you in other ways when he's ready.
What Girls Said 2
Everyone is different. Sometimes it'll take a guy a month to get over someone and somtimes it'll take a year. It all depnds. And as far as making a guy go crazy for you then you need to do a couple things. Be nice, fun, outgoing, confident, and take an interest in some of the things he likes.
Perfect answer.
Have an opinion?

Tough economic times have caused one school in Ireland to ask students to bring their own toilet paper. Parents received the following request last week from principal Catherine O'Neill:
Dear parent, from time to time we will request your daughter to bring in a toilet roll to her class teacher. These rolls will be specifically for your daughter's class and will be dispensed by the class teacher. We would also request that your daughter has tissues in her sack at all times.

"When I was telling people that I joined Piaggio," said John Bingham, "they would say, 'I didn't realize that you had gone to work in motor scooters.' I quickly understood that we needed to do something about the name of the company. So that is why we branded it 'Piaggio Aero.'"

Flying in business aircraft, whether small or large, is an expensive proposition. But a variety of methods can help you keep costs to a minimum while maximizing safety and efficiency.

How would you respond to an in-flight emergency? If your answer involves seeking help from flight attendants, that's not surprising. Passengers typically consider them to be the cabin safety go-to people.
""I've got a list of corporations that have gotten out of their airplanes [because of criticism from politicians]. It is the stupidest thing I've ever seen. When you look at the time and cost savings; it does not make sense not to fly [privately]. You can't let public perception interfere with your business decision to fly. It either is a good business decision or it isn't.""
-business aviation entrepreneur Nick Popovich

Album Summary
- Christian Tetzlaff (Violin)
- Steve Davislim (Tenor)
Notes & Reviews:
"Opulent and ecstatic, both works benefit hugely from Boulez's rigorous orchestral control and refined ear for colour. Nowhere do you find Boulez the icy robot, an ancient stereotype that was scarcely valid even when new" -The Times
"Boulez brings welcome astringency to Szymanowski's colour-burst orchestration in this live recording of the composer's first Violin Concerto...Tetzlaff's super-sweet concentrate is at its most intense, hugging the mournful melodic contours, while the Wiener Philharmoniker support with lush brilliance." -The Sunday Times
"[Boulez's] partnership with Tetzlaff and the flexible Vienna Philharmonic is perfectly suited to the lavish orchestration of the First Violin Concerto with its dazzling cadenza and the oriental chromaticism of the choral Third Symphony is shaped and clarified...Definitely a disc of the year." -The Observer
"His crystalline performances with the Vienna Philharmonic make the early 20th century Polish composer sound like a bridge between Scriabin and the French impressionists. Boulez's ear for detail saves the music from over-saturation, and creates a seemingly endless string of tingling sounds, suspended between the stars and the oceanic depths." -The Financial Times
"Szymanowski's hyper-elaborate glowing textures are perfectly suited to Boulez's fastidiously sensuous conducting style. The performance of the Violin Concerto is certainly a marvel. The soloist Christian Tetzlaff floats his tremulously ornate line above the incandescent orchestral sounds with perfect poise." -The Telegraph
"This marks Pierre Boulez's first foray into Szymanowski's music on disc, though his fascination with the Polish composer's work apparently goes back more than half a century...Boulez makes a strong case for the symphony, and is particularly persuasive in the second movement." -The Guardian
"On paper, you'd reckon Szymanowski's strain of delicately perfumed sensuousness ought not to suit Boulez. But luckily CDs exist in sound: Szymanowski's fleeting, sleight-of-hand orchestration, reinforced by harmonies that are deployed as much for colour as their harmonic direction, appeals to the same side of Boulez that relishes unpicking Debussy and Ravel." -Classic FM
"Tetzlaff spins out the exotically tinged melodies of the violin concerto with sensual tone." -The New York Times
Pierre Boulez honors singular Polish composer Karol Szymanowski by recording - live - the Violin Concerto no. 1 and the Symphony no. 3 "Song of the Night." Violin virtuoso Christian Tetzlaff and the Wiener Philharmoniker are peerless participants. The two orchestral works are the high-water mark of Szymanowski's impressionism, an idiom mingling the refined sonorities of Debussy, Ravel, and late Scriabin with the impassioned Romanticism of the New German School. Inspired by Persian poet Rumi, Szymanowski subtitled his Symphony no. 3 "Song of the Night" after a poem by the 13th-century mystic. Emotional, even ecstatic music conveys the poem's supernatural vision of night's unraveling of the mystery of God.Notes & Reviews:

The PayPal Blog notes that JP Morgan has recently published an "in-depth analysis on the PayPal business".
The Smart Payment Association (SPA), a group of the industry's largest manufacturers of payment smart cards, has announced findings from its 2008 market monitoring activity - undertaken in order to get a better understanding of the current status of the payment smart card market and its key trends.
"A lot of industries were severely affected by the financial crisis. Despite a slowdown in the SPA payment smart card shipments at the end of 2008, the smart card manufacturers are not as heavily impacted as others can be", said Marie-Jane Denis, President of the Smart Payment Association. "High volumes continue to be shipped around the world and a majority of regions carry on their migration to EMV standards." READ MORE »
Heartland Payment Systems has announced that yesterday it successfully completed the first phase of its end-to-end encryption pilot project. According to the company, "this first step involved the transmission of live AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)-encrypted card transactions from a merchant to Heartland's processing platform. AES is the highest level of encryption and is currently on track to replace DES (Data Encryption Standard) and Triple DES as the desired standard for sensitive data."
Earlier this month Heartland announced it was working with Voltage Security to develop its end-to-end encryption approach. READ MORE »
Visa has announced that it has entered into a strategic alliance with Monitise plc "to facilitate the delivery of Visa mobile payments and related services to consumers around the world. Concurrent with the strategic alliance, Visa has agreed to make a minority equity investment in Monitise, subject to Monitise shareholder approval."

Broox Peterson comments on today's US Supreme Court decision in the case of Cuomo vs. Clearinghouse Association. "The decision today (5 Justices on majority opinion, 4 on opinion concurring in part and dissenting in part) holds that state attorneys general can enforce non-preempted state laws against national banks, contrary to the position of the OCC that such enforcement constituted preempted "visitation" under the National Bank Act."
Bank of America and First Data have announced "the formation of a new company that will deliver next-generation payments solutions to merchants ranging from small business to commercial and corporate clients worldwide."
According to the two companies, Banc of America Merchant Services, LLC will provide clients "with the most comprehensive suite of innovative payments solutions including credit, debit and prepaid cards to merchant loyalty, check and eCommerce payments." READ MORE »

The Federal Reserve has published its latest annual report on the Profitability of Credit Card Operations of Depository Institutions. Section 8 of the Fair Credit and Charge Card Disclosure Act of 1988 directs the Federal Reserve Board to transmit annually to the Congress a report about the profitability of credit card operations of depository institutions.
From the report: "In 2008, credit card banks with assets in excess of $200 million reported net earnings before taxes of 1.43 percent of outstanding balances adjusted for credit card-backed securitization, down 132 basis points or nearly 48 percent from 2007. The 2008 rate of return is very low by historic standards; well below the average rate of return of 3.03 percent since 1986."
Bankrate.com has published its annual Credit Card Study with this year's edition focusing on terms and conditions -- the fine print of credit card agreements. The survey looked at two cards from the top 10 issuers, one platinum card and one rewards card. Bankrate found that the terms and conditions varied by issuer, not by the card. Issuers surveyed were: American Express, Bank of America, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Discover, FNB Omaha, USAA Federal Savings, US Bank, and Wells Fargo.
Economic confidence among small business owners rose slightly in June as cash flow concerns abated and the mood on the economy held steady, according to the latest Discover Small Business Watch. The monthly index rose to 80.9, up from 78.1 in May.
"Cash flow problems are back to levels that are more in line with what we've typically seen since the Watch began nearly three years ago," said Ryan Scully, director of Discover's business credit card. "Cash flow concerns usually erode confidence because they represent something tangible to a business owner, more so than an expectation or perception about the economy." READ MORE »
In Sunday's Washington Post, writers Nancy Trejos and Jonathan Starkey look at what's been happening to bank fees - noting that "your bank wants more of your money, and it's found a way to get it: by jacking up the fees on your account."
Examples? "Bank of America this year raised the maximum number of times customers can get hit with overdraft fees from five a day to 10. On top of that, it began charging a one-time fee of $35 if the account remains in the negative for more than five days."

With yesterday's death of Michael Jackson, purchasers of tickets to his planned London shows originally scheduled to begin in a few weeks will be seeking refunds on their purchases. See this article in todays' Guardian for more information. "Tickets for Jackson's 50-day tour sold out almost immediately when they went on sale in March. More than a quarter of a million people bought tickets..."
This is a nightmare scenario for a merchant acquirer - tickets purchased using credit cards for a future performance that ultimately doesn't happen. This is why merchant acquirers are as concerned about the nature of the goods/services being sold as they are about the merchant itself. It will be interesting to watch as this plays out in the UK.

In a post on PaymentsViews.com titled "eRetailer Tender Type Acceptance Analysis", Glenbrook's Russ Jones takes a look at a recent Internet Retailer study of the top 500 retail web sites and does some additional tender type analysis to see what we could learn about acceptance trends across various alternative online payment methods.
Across the top 100 online retailers, Russ found that "87% of the Top 100 accept a form of payment other than the main four payment card tenders. 72% took at least five types of tenders — the four main tenders plus one alternative. On the far end of tender types diversity, 11% of the Top 100 took at least 8 different types of tenders."
Russ notes that this analysis is specific to online retailers based in the United States. Our analysis at Glenbrook indicates that about 60% of the global eCommerce market is now outside the United States — and tender type acceptance (and acceptance strategies) vary greatly country-to-country. If you're looking to sort out your global acceptance strategy, contact Russ Jones directly for further assistance.

Liberia's energy expert Christopher Neyor is a features contributor in a new textbook published in January 2013 by Oxford University Press under the auspices of New York University (NYU) School of Law and its Institute of Public Integrity.
The scholarly book "The Globalization of Cost-Benefit Analysis in Environmental Policy" was edited by Michael Livermore, Executive Director of the Institute of Public Integrity and Law Professor at NYC and Richard Revesz, Dean and Lawrence King, Professor at NYU School of Law.
Of the 36 contributors to The Globalization of Cost-Benefit Analysis in Environmental Policy, Mr. Neyor was one of two African contributors, the other, a professor of Economics at the University of Cape Town. Authors are primarily high-level academicians, tenured professors and Think Tank scientists from major universities around the world including the United States, Brazil, Mexico, Europe, China, India and Australia.
Mr. Neyor's article in the book, "Assessing Potential Carbon Revenue from Reduced Forest Cover in Liberia", was coauthored with Professor Eric Werker of Harvard Business School and three executives of Conservation International (CI) including CI Liberia Country Director Jessica Donovan. The article presented through in-depth analysis the cost and benefit of conserving Liberia rich rain forest as a carbon emission reduction strategy. The article overall proposes forest conservation as part of Liberia's National Energy Policy of a low carbon emission development strategy.
Mr. Neyor and Dr. Eric Werker presented the published paper at a conference of scholars in Abu Dhabi in late 2010 with rave review. At the time, Mr. Neyor was Adviser on Energy, Environment and Climate Change to President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf.
Cost-benefit analytical techniques are widely used in advanced countries to weigh the various impacts of policy alternatives. In an effort to globalize cost-benefit analysis in environmental policy, the book "examines how cost benefit analysis can help developing and emerging countries confront the next generation of environmental and public health challenges by presenting relevant case studies where cost-benefit has been incorporated in the Americas, Africa, Middle East and Asia".
The Globalization of Cost-Benefit Analysis in Environmental Policy will be a useful text for graduate students studying environmental law or science, economics or public health.
Mr. Chris Neyor had previously served as Managing Director of the Liberia Electricity Corporation pre civil war and most recently was President and CEO of the National Oil Company of Liberia. He was a visiting scholar at the Center for Energy and the Environment of the University of Pennsylvania in the early 1990's. Mr. Neyor is an Energy Economic product of the University of Denver and the Graduate School of Business at Stanford University.

press release
Nairobi — Authorities in South Sudan should thoroughly investigate the murder of an online journalist, identify the motive, and bring the perpetrators to justice, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today.
Diing Chan Awuol, who went by the penname "Isaiah Abraham," was shot dead by unidentified men in Gudele, a suburb of Juba, the capital, early today, according to a member of Chan's family and a local journalist citing another relative. The sources said the gunmen came to Chan's home, asked him to come outside, and then shot him dead and took his cellphone.
Chan was a contributor to news websites, including Sudan Tribune, Gurtong, and SudaneseOnline, typically writing opinion articles critical of the South Sudanese leadership and their relationship with Sudanese authorities, local journalists told CPJ. The journalists said Chan had been threatened several times in the past and had received anonymous phone calls warning him to stop writing.
Local journalists told CPJ that Chan could have been targeted in connection with his online columns. In his last article, published on November 27 in the Sudan Tribune, he urged authorities to foster a better relationship with Sudan and refrain from supporting Sudanese rebel groups.
Although South Sudan gained independence from Sudan in July 2011 after a long civil war, internal conflicts continue to rage in the Nuba Mountains region of Sudan where rebels are fighting for increased civil rights and greater autonomy from the Khartoum government.
Police Inspector General Acuil Tito told local journalists today that police would be investigating the murder.
"By getting to the bottom of this murder and bringing the perpetrators to justice, authorities in South Sudan can demonstrate their commitment to the rule of law and freedom of expression," said CPJ East Africa Consultant Tom Rhodes.
Despite often being critical of South Sudanese leaders, Chan was a former official in the rebel army, the Sudan People's Liberation Army, and a strong supporter of Africa's newest country's independence in July 2011, local journalists told CPJ. Chan is survived by his wife and five children.

From the Publisher
"I like that this book covers a wide range of topics related to color theory. Beginning with the physiology of the human eye and continuing on all the way through to digital color it really does cover a wealth of information about color."
"Overall, it is easy to read, organized well and comprehensive in content for our use. The chapter on Color Psychology is especially useful to my course and the Digital Color section applies to Color Theory and to the Graphics programs we teach. I can easily relate the information from one class to another."

Radiator,cooling system? Drum brake question?
Hello all I am looking for help on a long over due project. I have owned this 65 mustang since 1990 at time of purchase it had 66,000 miles most of which were put on it from june of 64 till 1970 after 70 it sat more than moved and was sold at public auction in 1990. Early married years did not allow storage of my hard earned toy so it sat at mom and dads. After establishing a home a constant over heating issue plagued the car. After a minor rebuild on the motor in 1999 in an attempt to find a cracked head the over heating continued and I gave up, pissed at the money and time wasted on the rebuild it sat for the next 13 years. During that time my wife and I had a family and my oldest son starts asking questions about the car under the cover.
So two days ago we uncovered it and fired it up, the 20 year old remaned water pump let go. We replaced it
and fired it again. Thirteen years ago it would over heat in a short drive or on start up and idle a few minutes. Now with the new pump it ran 10 minutes and all seemed fine temp gauge running right in the middle, no idea of actual temp but when shut off it would heat sink drift up and when restarted would settle back to middle. So what was up with it before? I cant
test it on the road yet because the brakes are all frozen up, shoe stuck to drum. How do I get past this issue? Peckingon them lightly with a hammer and using a pry bar between the lugs has not helped. Should I put the torch to them and warm them. Should I cut off the shoe retaining pins and try to get the shoes to come off with the drum?
My local autoparts guy said I was wasting my time replacing the water pump as the over heating was caused by an upside down head gasket or cracked block or head missed during the rebuild. Not sure why the water pump helped or even if it has cured it until I can get it on the road and truly test it. The motor has one hour run time on the 13 year old rebuild so its far from proven but will remain unproven until I get the brakes up and working. Getting this thing back on the road will vindicate my shade tree mechanics skills on the little 260 v-8 ,get my wife off my back, and now with three kids oldest being 13 they have finally seen the car under the cover. It has never moved since they have been on this earth so they were sorta shocked when the cover came off and it ran and made noises. Any suggestions on this project would be appreciated. SN

Sounds like a gem in the rough you have there.
The cooling problem was quite possibly just the pump. It was not unheard of for the impellors to slip on the shaft and result in poor coolant circulation and thus overheating. Give it some cautious test driving once you get the brakes sorted and see how it does then.
As for the brakes; are the wheels free to turn at all? If so, then the shoes would not be stuck to the drums (and should not be anyway as they are not in contact with the drums except when they are actually applied). More likely is that the drums are grooved and catching on the shoes as you try to pull them off. For that, you need to back off the self adjuster to get the shoes clear of the wear ridge. If they truly are seized up and won't turn, then yes, beat/heat the hell out of them until they come apart. The entire brakes are probably toast in that case anyway so a bit of a whooping isn't going to do any more harm. Just be prepared to spring for all new brakes. If originality is not an issue, a disc brake upgrade might be an option then. Otherwise, lots of suppliers for parts for old Mustangs, so getting what you need should not be difficult.

I do a horrible job of describing my issues. Yes the shoes are rusted to the drum don't know why as it has been stored inside. Only one of the four will actually turn. So far pounding has not freed them up. SN

If your shoes are stuck to the drum look at the backing plate at the bottom for an oil leak. If you've got axle lube leaking past a seal and getting inside the drum. When you apply the brakes the brakes will lock up up "big time". When I've had this issues and to limp it home crawling at slow speed I'd put it in reverse and dump the clutch. It'd free the shoes till I needed to use the brakes again. Then lather, rinse, repeat till home. In my case I ran 5.30 axle gearing so crawling along in 1st gear didn't really need the brakes much till I got home. If all 4 of your brakes are locked up, it's not oil on the shoes, the guy that last did the brakes botched the job. Cheap pig-in-a-poke auction cars are fun eh?

I started this morning pecking on the drum, prying, and finally cut off the pins, and removing the wheel cylinders. They did not go easy but success. Oreilly did not have any parts for a near 50 year old car so now we wait on parts. Here are a couple pics of the progress. Thanks for the MG site a lot of good info there. My drums were turned at the last brake job and are well within spec with no lip so hopefully just a polishing new wheel cylinders and master cylinder. SN

If its been sitting for ages a complete brake rebuild is in order, new master cylinder, rubber hoses, wheel cylinders and shoes, not that expensive. As previous poster said front discs are a good option. They could be purchased as a option on the GT model
By the way both of those mustangs are great
Be careful lifting front that way

Thanks for all the words of encouragement. I ordered everything but brake lines and really I am being a cheap ass I better order them. Seems risky to replace un weather checked American made stuff for Chinese made crap. This project has reminded me you cant buy anything that's not . EIS used to make the best wheel cylinders, even had stainless steel pistons vs the pot metal ones one the rest, now out of buisness.
The comment on the fastback. Its a neat old car but its a mutt of my own making. When I moved to this state to start teaching school 18 years ago I bought it as a basket case, disassembled and partial resto. Knowing I would not know anyone and would need something to keep my evil hands busy I spent three years on and off and did most everything, my brother helped finish the body work on a marathon weekend, then made me shoot the paint. The car was restored in the most dumpy old garage behind a mobile home my wife and I bought to stop paying rent so we could save money for a real home and shop some day in the future. Originally ivy green 289 auto, now ragoon red with wimbleton lemans strips, 289 4 speed. Its been kept on the road where the convertible went to giving cooling issues and after the engine rebuild and even a new radiator I just got busy and left the old car hobby for the last thirteen years. Now with my 13 year old by my side I am enjoying playing shade tree mechanic and unlike work in the past the shade tree has gave way to a decent shop. Weird thing money still does not seem very plentiful?
When the brakes are done were going to give it a test drive and see if it holds its cool. If it does well then I am the biggest dumb ass in the world for not replacing the pump before. But keeping it off the road has only helped to preserve a really nice low miles convertible, even though it wont lay blackies like the red one.
I get to take a group of boy scouts to camp, cot sleeping and no AC for the next week so progress will slow but I will post a follow up if I can still stand after the cot thing. Thanks again for all the kind words and encouragement. SN

If it were mine I'd get a quality disc brake upgrade. Not sure what it costs but brakes are one of the wrong places to try and save money. Drum brakes are not very good, especially on a 60 year old relatively fast car.
Plus, doing the brake upgrade will be a very positive learning experience for the kid.

Update, more woes.
I returned from being homeless for a week. Nothing like 6 days and night in a tent remind you there is no place like home. The parts came in at oreilly's while we were gone. We did not go the disc upgrade route as recommended. The car is a an original old car with only 69k and I just hated to mod it. Doubt we will ever show but they are only original once and part of the charm of driving them is wondering what direction they will pull when the brakes are applied. We went thru the master cylinder and front bakes and after I backed off and let the kid do the rear. He really appreciated the brake tools, especially the one for the retainer pin springs and retaining spring pliers. I told him I had done many w/o the special tools and cussed a lot more back then. We up grade to silicone brake fluid after a good flush so hopefully wheel cylinders will last a bit longer, they were toast.
Today after finishing the rear brakes we lowered it for a test drive. It took on three quarts of trans fluid started and ran good for a while then got nasty would not idle good and wanted to die off idle, we made a slight run up the driveway and down the road a couple hundred feet and it croaked. It restarted but something was way wrong. After some time looking it over it appears to be a fuel delivery problem. It will run off gas down the carb but not off the tank. Fuel supply line is clogged, air up it and into the tank did not clear the clog but for a short idle. Comparing fuel supply to it and the fast back seems to have confirmed my thoughts of a clogged in tank screen. Managed to get the 49 year old drain plug out of the tank after much kroil and tapping with hammer. Tank is drained tomorrow we will pull sending unit and strainer assembly and confirm parts needed.
Good news is it moved under its own power for a short drive, first in 13 years. The boy got the brake job in the rear figured out pretty easy and did good work. Learned not to bend the steel brake line or getting it back into the wheel cylinder straight is a bugger. Overheating issue is still not been road tested but is looking promising. Last thing learned working on these old cars was more fun 10 and 20 years ago but I had less money. A lift is going to be a must have, two post or four post not sure but is got to happen. Me no bendy so well.

Lifting Experience
I'm now 69 and installed a used Rotary brand 2 post lift about ten years ago. Best auto shop improvement I've made. Look around for a used one, I paid 750 for mine and I bought it from the guy who bought all of a closed Kmart's inventory. Even with a new pump assy after 5 yrs I have only1200 invested. A 2 post lift will give better access to work under the car, and also do wheel work since none are supporting the car. Great learning exp for your boy, he won't need a contractor to change a door knob when grown.

The Final inspection
The warrior stood and faced God,
Which will always come to pass,
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, old warrior,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To my church have you been true?"
The warrior squared his shoulders and
Said, "No, Lord, I guess I ain't,
'Cause those of us who carry guns
Can't always be saint.
"I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
'Cause the world is awfully rough.
"But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
"And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
"I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here,
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
"If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand. In life
I didn't expect nor need too much,
So if you don't, I'll understand."
There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod,
As the warrior stood quietly.
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, my warrior,
You've born your burdens well,
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."

'Outlaw Empires': Kurt Sutter goes inside the Mafia for DiscoveryAdd to Favorites | Outlaw Empires
Discovery's new series "Kurt Sutter's Outlaw Empires" has provided some compelling looks inside criminal subcultures, and Monday's (June 4) episode continues in that vein. "Sons of Anarchy" creator Sutter takes a look at one of the most notorious crime organizations in history: the Italian Mafia.
In this clip from the episode, which you can see exclusively on Zap2it, former Gambino crime family associate Dominick Montiglio describes how he set up a hit on a fellow mobster in Brooklyn in the 1970s. The re-enactment is pretty strong, but what makes it so chilling is Montiglio's remembrance of his action, and how he waited up all night to hear the explosion.
We're also struck by the fact that Montiglio apparently had few qualms about killing someone he'd known since childhood, but had the target not gone to his car that night, he would have returned to dismantle the makeshift car bomb because he didn't want to endanger kids walking to school the next morning.
"Outlaw Empires" airs at 10 p.m. ET Monday on Discovery.

Win An Especially Escada Beauty Package!
We love the new deliciously luxurious Especially Escada scent! It has top notes of pears, which means it is light and fresh, rose and ylang ylang to give it a floral core and a light layer of musk for a sensual sendoff. What we love even more is that Escada has partnered with The Knot to give you a chance to win your very own Especially Escada fragrance package! Our grand prize is a fabulous beauty basket, plus a $500 Amex gift card! Or, be one of the first 2,000 entries and get a free Especially Escada beauty sample. Here are a few tips on how to best wear the fragrance:
- For "scent-ual" staying power, apply fragrance in layers (different products, same scent). Start with a body wash, then slather on the scented moisturizer, and end with the perfume.
- Put fragrance on your pulse points — your wrists, behind your ears, in the bend of your elbows, on your ankles. These spots generate the most heat and will give off scent longer.
- Don't overdo it. People should see you before they smell you.

@MemphisBaseball Inks Collierville Shortstop Brandon Montgomery
Nov. 25, 2013
MEMPHIS, Tenn. – University of Memphis head baseball coach Daron Schoenrock announced Monday that Collierville High School shortstop Brandon Montgomery signed a National Letter of Intent to join the program for the 2015 season.
Montgomery has lettered three seasons at CHS for former Tiger player and coach Jeff Hopkins, helping the squad to a 34-12 record and a Tennessee Class AAA state title last season with a 6-2 win over Farragut. While playing for the Dragons, Montgomery has recorded a .434 batting average, which ranks seventh all-time at Collierville.
"Brandon is a tremendous athlete that possesses 'middle of the field' skills as an infield defender and with table-setter/base stealer tools offensively," Schoenrock said. "He can change games quickly with his speed and competitiveness, and is a great addition to our 2015 roster. We are thrilled that he has chosen Memphis!"
In 2012, Montgomery set the single-season stolen base and hits records at Collierville. At the plate, he totaled 62 hits with 143 at bats. That season he was named Varsity Rookie of the Year and was selected to the Tennessee Baseball Coaches Association Super Sophomore Team.
In June, Montgomery played for Team Tennessee at the Junior Sunbelt Classic in Oklahoma along with fellow Memphis signee Connor Alexander.
He is the son of Steve and Felicia Montgomery.

Our resident racer Robb Holland keeps some pretty interesting company, so when he said he had video of a young woman hooning a Lamborghini we said "gimme gimme gimme."
Here's how Holland sets up the video for us:
Multiple choice quiz
The reason why you don't let this girl drive your Lamborghini
Is it:
A) She'll fry the clutch.
B) She'll crash it into the curb.
C) It will catch fire ... oh wait it's not a Ferrari
C) She'll drive it up a tree.
D) She'll drive it far better than you ever could and make you look like a no talent hack
The hamster in the Kia Commercials? Yeah that's her.
The big stuffed toy monkey in those Sorrento ads? Yeah, that's her. She's also the stunt double for Grace Park on Hawaii 5-0. You get the picture.
Oh, but you say "I can do a flip turn just like that too. No prob."
So what you're telling me is that you've got the balls to do a flip turn in a brand new $250k, 60-hp supercar with the owner not only standing there but video taping the whole thing? Really?
But as it happens Sara doesn't need balls to pull that off. Turns out they just get in the way.
Well, she can borrow our's anytime. Our cars. I mean.

My doctor is a woman and I feel weird about it, especially if I have to be naked. What should I do?
Little kids often run around naked and think nothing of it. But as you get older, you get more aware of your body and have an increased need for privacy. So it can feel strange to take off your clothes at the doctor's office. But your doctor does need to examine you to make sure you are healthy.
To make you more comfortable, you can ask that your mom or dad come into the exam room with you. You can also ask for a gown — a thin robe that ties. Most doctor offices have these available for patients.
