I purchased this engine from a friend of mine that had it in his Mustang that he was going to drag race. Hence, the nitrous cam. Even with that cam, the motor is very streetable. With the right heads, this engine is very capable of running upwards of 450HP. I believe this engine has roughly 500 miles on it so the rings will still need to be seated. This is an incredible price for this engine. $750.00!!! [email protected] 541-815-4587

Can someone please upload Camel Hair Brush.xml from painter 5.5?
Hi there,
I'm trying to get the old camel hair brush to work on painter X but unfortunately I don't have the CD to get it from the old brushes folders.
I've also checked Ryan Church website and have downloaded his brushes, but since I am not sure if that is the one I'm looking for I was making this topic to see if someone could send me the brush so I could import on to Painter X.
the brush I'm refering too is this one mentioned by Jin:
camel hair (5.5) - (the correct name for this brush variant is Camel Hair Brush) on the Painter IX CD: CPainterIX > Extras > Brushes > Painter 5 Brushes > Brush
and also here:
my email in case someone wants to send directly to me: email@example.com

Sorry, but we can't distribute parts of the Painter program as it would be a violation of the license agreement to do so.
Considering that, it's best for you not to ask anyone to do so.
Please do not PM me with Painter questions. Instead, post them here where everyone can benefit from them. Thanks!

Hi Jin,
thanks for the answer. I was thinking that ryan have his brushes to download on his website, couldn't you do the same? please? hehe
Can't you make some modifications on the size, save as "Jin's Brush" and then send it to me? Then it wouldn't be violation, it's just a custom brush that you are sending
Sorry for bothering you, but really, I just want to have that brush hehe, otherwise I will have to contact my friend to get back my CD so I can have the brush (but it will be hard since right now I'm living in a different country hehe).

brunopicinini, i think you can do basicly the same camel hair brush in brush creator in painter x! just select round camelhair from oils, press 'ctrl+b' and choose dab type: circular and subcategory: grainy soft cover.
hope it will help.

but if any good soul would still like to help me, please do =)

Bee the Change wants to
Healthy bee populations are essential to the production of our food. Bees are attracted to floral nectars and help
Healthy bee populations are essential to the production of our food. Bees are attracted to floral nectars and help pollinate the plant, allowing it to reproduce. Therefore, without honey bees, our lives would be impoverished by a general lack of fruits, vegetables, flowers, and other bee-pollinated plant products like corn, apples, oranges, lemons, broccoli, onions, blueberries, cherries,…
without bees we would die we have to save all bees unless you dont want to be alive stop killing them just save them
Only 5 days left to sign the petition. Save the bees, save our food sources, save the earth, save the people!
My husband and daughter are beekeepers. Last year and years prior the bees died without any cause other than possible spray from neighboring yards or fields.
bee collects pollen on the plant of Hazel LET THEM FLY !!!
In the 8 years I taught high school many of the students did not realize that bees were essential to crops. Somehow we have become so disconnected from the soil that many unconsciously think that everything just appears in the grocery store. Working to save the bees is working to save ourselves.

El Fasher — Militiamen released two people on Tuesday, one of whom is a child who has been abducted for two weeks, in North Darfur's capital city on Tuesday.
The release of the nine-year-old Mohamad Yagoub Abdul Karim and a trader coincided with the deadly clash between the army and Border Guards elements in El Fasher city on Tuesday.
The child's father, Yagoub Abdul Karim, said that Mohamad has spent two weeks in the hands of the kidnappers since 7 May. "The pro-government militiamen blindfolded him with a cloth. He has heard the firing of ammunition and fighting between the army and the Border Guards elements, because they were nearby." He revealed that his son was drugged with a cloth and lost consciousness for two days after being kidnapped in the northern El Gubba district of El Fasher city.
Abdul Karim had reported to several Sudanese newspapers that three masked men in a Hyundai Atos with only a rear plate had abducted his son. The kidnappers told him to pay a ransom of SDG250,000 ($43,579) for Mohamad's release. "Intervene to save my son, and control the chaos in El Fasher," he then urged the state authorities. In the end, the chaos in the city between armed groups prompted the release of his son.
Abductions occur frequently in El Fasher city, and North Darfur's Kutum locality, lately, mostly by militiamen or the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). In March this year, RSF elements abducted two young men in Donki Baashim in Kutum. A teacher of the Kassab camp secondary school in Kutum has been abducted by militiamen on 15 May. Two young men were kidnapped in El Fasher city on 17 May.

Hello, Genglemen and thank you for dropping by my website to visit. My name is Marsha Middleton and I am 39 years old. I am very proud of my years -- they have been absolutely wonderful! I am in the prime of life and you probably are too. I would never want to go back to being 20 again -- that is an awkward age. When I was 20 I was still very naive and didn't really understand what the world was really all about -- who does at that age? Now I have reached an age at which I finally know exactly who I am and what is going on in this world!
When we are 20 we think we know it all but when we are 39 we know that at age 20 we really didn't know anything at all! We thought we were the cat's meow when it came to making love but we leaned 10,000 times after that age than before. I guess that is true of just about everything in life. At age 39 we all know about 10,000 times more than we did at age 20!
When I was 20 I was an exotic dancer. I was gorgeous, I was thin, I had large breasts -- the world was mine for the taking. I still have those good looks and that great body, but now I have something much more satisfying to a gentleman: I have the real know-how. When I was 20 I thought men loved quickies -- get it up, get it in, get it over, get it out. Ten minutes was forever; five minutes was usual! But now I know the real truth.
The real truth looks more like this: As we grow older, we learn to enjoy the trip as much as the arrival. When we were young, we just wanted to pump away fast and furiously to have a powerful orgasm. We had no idea what foreplay was about. Romance was for princes and princesses in novels; we just wanted the raw sex! The art of teasing escaped our notice; if I wore beautiful sexy lingerie to the bedroom, it was off in less than a minute!
Now I like to wear lingerie for a long stretch. I like for you to look me over, slowly and longingly. I like to build the excitement. And I can take foreplay to a whole new level. I can take foreplay to a place where it has never been before.
I was doing body rubs out in the western part of the United States for the last few months, in a spa. In the spa, I learned how to give a gentleman a proper massage -- make that a body rub, actually -- that was basically about 60 minutes on the table. But now I have learned even more. I have learned that before the table time even begins we should do what blind dates would do first -- sit on the couch and get to know each other for a while; touch; explore; grope; imagine the things to come, the things to be explored.
And I learned something else: you like to touch me just as much as you like to be touched. You like to explore my body, you like to give me pleasure. The old saying about having more pleasure giving than receiving is true.
So this is my idea. You come to my place (or I can come to your place, if you prefer). We'll sit on the couch and share a bottle of soda or beer or wine and perhaps some crackers and cheese. We'll talk. I'll be dressed in lingerie -- yes,you can stare at my large cleavage and I'll be happy, not offended! Maybe your hands will start to wander a bit. After that, we'll go to the table. You can lie down and I'll start rubbing you. Perhaps I'll rub you for about a full hour. Maybe at that point you'd like to calm down a bit. How about if I lie down on the table for a while? You can rub my body and you can explore more than before. Can you make me have an orgasm?
At some point it will be time for a happy ending. Yes, that is part of what you came for. But really you came to see me for more than that -- you came to see me because you wanted a new girlfriend, a new woman to love, a new woman to please and to be pleased by in turn. You want more than a happy ending -- you want romance, you want passion, you want a woman who is interested in the real you.
The happy ending is just the climax of your visit to see me. It is not the only thing that brings you pleasure. It is our conversation, our romance, our exploration, our start of a new, secret friendship .
When you come to see me, please come for a leisurely visit. Let's sit on the couch for 15 to 20 minutes, then put you on the table for 50 to 60 minutes, then me on the table for 15 to 20 minutes, then you on the table for a long happy ending for 10 to 15 minutes, then a shower and perhaps a few minutes on the couch again. I'm thinking that we should spend about 2 hours together!
For the next few two or three weeks, I will be staying in the west part of Ft. Lauderdale in an apartment. I will use a professional massage table with clean linens and fragrance-free lotions.
I set my body rub rates at $200 and I expect to spend about 2 hours together.
If you think like me, then please call me at 407-790-5135 and let's chat on the phone. I like to exercise every morning to stay in good shape. I am not an exotic dancer any more, but I still keep in shape! So please call me after 11 am.

Richard S. "Kinky" Friedman (born October 31 or November 1, 1944) is an American singer, songwriter, novelist, humorist, politician and former columnist for Texas Monthly who styles himself in the mold of popular American satirists Will Rogers and Mark Twain. He was one of two independent candidates in the 2006 election for the office of Governor of Texas. Receiving 12.6% of the vote, Friedman placed fourth in the five-person race.
Friedman graduated from Austin High School in Austin, Texas in 1962 and graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 1966 with a Bachelor of Arts, majoring in Psychology while participating in the Plan II Honors program. He is also a member of the Tau Delta Phi fraternity. It was during his freshman year at the university that Chinga Chavin gave Friedman the nickname "Kinky," in reference to Friedman's curly hair.
Friedman then served two years with the Peace Corps on the island of Borneo in Malaysia with John Gross. He has been featured in the news including 60 Minutes on CBS and made an appearance as one of Jay Leno's guests. Friedman lives at Echo Hill Ranch, his family's summer camp near Kerrville, Texas. He also founded Utopia Animal Rescue Ranch, the mission of which is to care for stray, abused and aging animals; more than 1,000 dogs have been saved from animal euthanasia.
By 1971, Friedman had formed his second band, Kinky Friedman and The Texas Jewboys. In keeping with the band's satirical nature, each member had a comical name: in addition to Kinky there was Little Jewford, Big Nig, Panama Red, Wichita Culpepper, Sky Cap Adams, Rainbow Colours, and Snakebite Jacobs. Friedman's father objected to the name of the band, calling it a "negative, hostile, peculiar thing", which gave Kinky even more reason to choose the name.
Arriving on the wave of country rock following on from Gram Parsons, The Band, and the Eagles, Friedman originally found cult fame as a country and western singer. His break came in 1973 thanks to Commander Cody, who contacted Vanguard Music on his behalf. Friedman released Kinky Friedman in 1974 for ABC Records, then toured with Bob Dylan in 1975-6. His repertoire mixed social commentary ("We Reserve The Right To Refuse Service To You") and maudlin ballads ("Western Union Wire") with raucous humor (such as "Get Your Biscuits In The Oven and Your Buns In Bed"). His "Ride' em Jewboy" was an extended tribute to the victims of the Holocaust.
He made a race baiting song, "They Ain't Makin' Jews Like Jesus Anymore," a song in which Kinky verbally and physically beats up a drunken white person he deems "racist" who fictitiously berates African Americans, Jews, Greeks, and Sigma Nus in a bar.
Sample lyrics:
Other Friedman tunes include "The Ballad of Charles Whitman," in which Friedman lampooned Whitman's sniper attack from the University of Texas tower on August 1, 1966. His cover of Chinga Chavin's "Asshole from El Paso", a parody of Merle Haggard's "Okie from Muskogee" is, perhaps, his most famous song.
In early 1976 he joined Bob Dylan on the second leg of the Rolling Thunder Revue tour.
Friedman was a musical guest on Saturday Night Live in October 1976.
It has been reported by Mr. Friedman himself that he is the only artist known to have taped an unaired episode of Austin City Limits. He has also claimed to have been the first full-blooded Jew to take the stage at the Grand Ole Opry.
In February, 2007 Sustain Records released a compilation of the songs of Kinky Friedman sung by other artists called Why the Hell not... The compilation includes contributions by Dwight Yoakam, Willie Nelson, Lyle Lovett, and Kelly Willis.
On July 20, 2007 Kinky Friedman hosted the "Concert to Save Town Lake" to honor the memory of Lady Bird Johnson and her efforts to protect and preserve the shores of Town Lake in Austin, Texas.
Friedman has also written a regular column for the magazine Texas Monthly since April 2001, although it has been suspended during his run for governor of Texas; his last essay appeared in the March 2005 issue. In 2008, Texas Monthly brought his column back on a bimonthly basis.
Two books have been published collecting some of these nonfiction writings, as well as previously unpublished ones: 'Scuse Me While I Whip This Out and Texas Hold'em. He has also published a travelog (The Great Psychedelic Armadillo Picnic) and an etiquette guide.
The recurring character "Rambam", a New York private investigator and friend of the Friedman character in the books, is based on the real-life investigator, Steven Rombom, who acts as a technical advisor for the real Friedman.
In 2004, Friedman began a serious, though colorful, campaign to become the Governor of Texas in 2006. One of his stated goals is the "dewussification" of Texas Among his campaign slogans are "How Hard Could It Be?", "Why The Hell Not?", "My Governor is a Jewish Cowboy" and "He ain't Kinky, he's my Governor".
Friedman had hoped to follow in the footsteps of other entertainers-turned-governors, including Jimmie Davis, Jesse Ventura, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Ronald Reagan. When the campaign finance reports came out after the second quarter had ended, Friedman had raised more funds than the Democratic nominee, former Congressman Chris Bell.
On election day, November 7, Friedman was defeated by a wide margin, having received less than 13% of the state's votes in the five-candidate matchup.
On capital punishment, he previously summed up his position, "I am not anti-death penalty, but I'm damn sure anti-the-wrong-guy-getting-executed". More recently, he has clarified his position: "The system is not perfect. Until it's perfect, let's do away with the death penalty".
On illegal immigration, Kinky wants to increase the number of Texas National Guard troops on the border (from the current 1,500 to 10,000), impose $25,000 and $50,000 fines on companies that hire illegal immigrants and require foreign nationals seeking employment to purchase a foreign taxpayer ID card once they have passed a criminal background check. "Texas can no longer wait for our federal government to solve our illegal immigration problem," Friedman said. "These are steps that Texas can immediately take to help stem the tide of illegal immigrants penetrating our border." Had he been elected, he had promised to meet regularly with Governors Bill Richardson (New Mexico) and Janet Napolitano (Arizona) to develop a coordinated border state plan to supplement federal efforts to curb illegal immigration. Previously, Kinky put forth the "Five Mexican Generals" Plan, to pay Mexican officials to halt immigration on their side of the border. Although he originally stated "When I talk about the five Mexican generals, people think I'm joking but I'm dead serious", Friedman later told the Dallas Morning News that the plan, never meant to be carried out, was a joke with an element of seriousness.
According to his official Web site, Friedman's answer to the question "How does Kinky feel about abortion?" is "Kinky believes in a woman's right to choose." In person, he hedges his bet, saying "I'm not pro-life, and I'm not pro-choice. I'm pro-football". On social issues he has supported gay marriage, answering an Associated Press reporter's question on the subject on Feb. 3, 2005, "I support gay marriage. I believe they have a right to be as miserable as the rest of us" (Friedman himself is not married).
According to Cigar Aficionado magazine, Friedman plans to roll back "any and all smoking bans" if elected. One of his favorite quotes comes from Mark Twain: "If smoking is not allowed in heaven, I shall not go". Friedman supports the decriminalization of marijuana, though he doesn't advocate making its sale legal. "I'm not talking about like Amsterdam," he noted, "We've got to clear some of the room out of the prisons so we can put the bad guys in there, like the pedophiles and the politicians".
In an August 23, 2007 interview with the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Friedman stated that if he did run in 2010, he would run as a Democrat, citing that "God probably couldn't have won as an independent".
Friedman's persona as a politically incorrect raconteur has been likened to that of movie critic and commentator John Irving Bloom, better known in print as Joe Bob Briggs, with whom he appeared in the B-movie Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2.
Friedman prefers to smoke Montecristo No. 2 Cigars, the same brand once smoked by Fidel Castro. However, he also smokes Bolivars, noting that "Simón Bolívar is the only person in history to be exiled from a country named after him".. Friedman now makes eponymous cigars under the name Kinky Friedman Cigars.
Friedman is given brief praise in Joseph Heller's 1976 novel, Good as Gold, in which a governor (meant to satirize Lyndon B. Johnson), tells the main character, Bruce Gold: "Gold, I like you. You remind me a lot of this famous country singer from Texas I'm crazy about, a fellow calls himself Kinky Friedman, the Original Texas Jewboy. Kinky's smarter, but I like you more."
Friedman is friends with Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, and he has visited both at the White House. He wrote about his friendships with them in his November 2001 column ("Hail to the Kinkster") for Texas Monthly.

Protein Quantitation.....
Hi, I'm working on observing a protein on a western blot, I have been unsuccessful. I have tried concentrating my sample using acetone precipitation. I'm going to try and concentrate my sample more. any suggestion?
Also, I will be starting new cell cultures using complete media consisting of DMEM w/10% FBS. Is there anyway to help my cells produce more protein?
Re: Protein Quantitation.....
I guess if you can't even detect your protein via Western Blot, it must be in very very low concentration or it is even not there. When I grew cells on DMEM I measured the general concentration proteins in the cell lysate just per spectrophotometry at 600 nm (standardized by using BSA standard concentrations). For IP I used about 650 µg, for Western I always used about 30µg of the cell material and it worked perfectly fine.

Protector Somerset, who has run the government of England for the child-king Edward VI since the death of Henry VIII two years earlier, falls from power. On 12th, he is sent to the Tower by John Dudley, Earl of Warwick, and Thomas Wriothesley, Earl of Southampton. Warwick becomes the new head of government: although he does not accept the title of Lord Protector, he concentrates offices and power in his hands, and on 28th takes the office of Lord Admiral.

My YouTube ad of the week: Amy Kean, MPG Media Contacts
Amy Kean reviews T-Mobile
Amy Kean, head of consumer innovation, MPG Media Contacts
Why I like this
2012 is the Year of Britain. Approximately one in four briefs that enter through an agency's doors is likely to have some sort of reference to either maximising the spirit of the Olympics or tapping into British pride.
Walking down Oxford Street yesterday, I noticed that the majority of shop window displays are now overwhelmingly "British", and Geri Halliwell's new Union Jack-inspired clothing range for Next is just the icing on the cake. Creating something that resonates with us sceptical UK consumers and enhances this 12 months of overt Britishness can be tough.
T-Mobile has managed it, though, with its cheeky celebration of everything this country holds dear. It appears to have captured (once again) the spirit and humour of the public. And, this time, the actual product is brought to the fore - something that hasn't been quite so strong in its previous ads.
Wish I had thought of
It may be the Year of Britain, but let's not take ourselves too seriously. T-Mobile's talent for taking the piss always seems to be spot on, and I wish more brands were up for following suit!

Wanda Joyce Norsworthy, 71 of Brownwood died Tuesday, July 2, 2013. She was born the first child of six to Harvey and Lily Mae Loyd in Post, Texas on Jan. 21, 1942. She was a great example for her children and for all those who knew her. Wanda was always happiest when she was helping others in need.

ABILENE — Javier Olguin was a one-man wrecking crew Tuesday for Sweet-water's Junior League All-Stars.
Olguin enjoyed a perfect night at the plate as he went 3-for-3 with a grand slam home run and eight RBIs, including a pair of two-run doubles plus an intentional walk in his other at bat.
But Sweetwater still came up short as it was eliminated, 16-13, by Abilene Eastern in the teams' losers bracket semifinal of the District 5 tournament at Abilene Wylie's field.
Eastern faces either Wylie or Abilene South in the losers bracket final today.
Today will be mostly sunny, with a high near 89 and south-southeast winds at 5 to 10 mph. In the afternoon, winds will become eastern.
Tonight, expect mostly cloudy conditions with a low around 65. Winds will be from the east-southeast around 10 mph, and after 1 a.m., a 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms will roll into the area.

The Junior League (ages 13-14) all-stars are the last remaining Sweetwater team at District 5 Little League tournaments in Abilene.
The Junior Leaguers, who began the tournament by going 0-2 in pool play, got bracket play off to a rousing start with dominating wins over Jim Ned (25-4) and Snyder (19-9) before suffering their first loss, 22-5, to Wylie on Saturday.
But Sweetwater is still alive after Monday's 11-10 win over Abilene North that advanced it into today's losers bracket semifinal. The team plays Abilene Eastern at Wylie's field at 6 p.m.

How it works: Periscopes work by using mirrors to show you an image out of your direct line of sight. It allows you to to look past obstructions in your line of view, look around corners, or over walls.
Read on to find out how to make this super cool spying periscope!
Step 1: Supplies and tools.
1. Some sort of long narrow cardboardish box. You could use an orange juice box, or something with that basic shape. I used a Thin Mints box, because it was narrow, long, and sturdy.
2. 2 small mirrors. I found my two mirrors out of old make-up containers. They're easy to pry out of the top, but be careful, if the mirror breaks, it could cut you.
3. Duck tape.
4. A knife. I used my Leatherman, but an X-acto knife, or carpet cutter works too.
5. A marker.
Step 2: Prepairing the body of the periscope.
After you've done this, cover the whole box in tape. The tape adds to the rigidity of the box, and makes everything look cleaner and smoother than if it were left the way it was. And it makes it look less suspicious than a box of thin mints peeking up over the window.

Street's most dramatic moment occurred on Christmas Eve 1910.
Luisa Tetrazzini, the greatest opera singer of her day, had
been scheduled to sing in New York. She claimed the contract
was invalid and explained that her manager had booked her
for a concert in San Francisco. A court battle ensued, during
which the diva exclaimed to the press. "I will sing in San
Francisco if I have to sing there in the streets, for I know
the streets of San Francisco are free." Source:

Keith Perera on the new Covert LT and ST
Great Skate has posted an interview with Warrior's Keith Perera about the new Covert LT and ST. Here are some of the questions that Keith answers:
GS: Tell us about the new sticks, what remains the same from last year's Covert line and what has been added?
KP: The Covert is all about speed and quick release. So we set out to make our sticks lighter, load easier and kick back stronger – improving on an already successful line.
Our new product has the "LT" designation for a reason. We wanted to make each stick the lightest we could possibly make it without sacrificing durability, and in some cases, making them more durable.
We have also added a "ST" model stick at the very high-end DT1 model to give Stronger players low kick with added twist resistance which then helps accuracy.
GS: The Covert was a very popular model last year – particularly with the various price point models. What do you think made the entire line so popular with players?
KP: Covert had a very distinct feel and kick. When a player got to try the product, they immediately felt the Dagger Taper load and release the puck with ease and speed. Covert also featured our newest blade designed with durability and weight in mind. We now have the lowest return rate in our history and it's all due to those new blade features. They are lighter and stronger.

Characters Who Wouldn't Normally be in a Fighting Game, but Totally Should Be
The title pretty much says it all. There are some times when I'm playing a game and think, "This guy should be in a Versus game. I could totally kick Ryu's pansy ass with him." And so, I decided to make a futile list of these characters, listing them while secretly knowing my dark desires will never come true. So come, and share in my sad, unrealistic dreams and check out my first list ever.
(BTW: They aren't in any particular order, so the numbering means nothing. I'll also be updating this all the time; I don't have a finite amount in mind.)

A new picture with an old story.
Journaling: When Linda and I met at the Central Florida Writing Project in 1997, we became fast friends. It didnt take long for her to introduce me to Marc, and I soon began to visit their house regularly. One of the first times I met Don we were sitting in the living room chatting, and he started talking about science. He regularly talks about science and technology, and Ive gotten used to that. In the beginning, though, it was a little intimidating. I didnt often know what he was talking about. Im an English teacher, for heavens sake! On this particular day, in a normal conversation, he brought up the 2nd law of thermodynamics. Im certain he wasnt expecting any of us in the room to know what he was talking about, but I said, Oh yeah...thats entropy! He gave me a rather stunned look at that point. I knew right then that I was in. I had hooked him with my knowledge of entropy. We have a lot of Hoenstine stories that mostly revolve around the exploits of kooky family members, but entropy is the first family story of my own. It still makes me giggle every time I think of his surprised face.

UTSA institute to host delegation from El Salvador Ministry of the Economy
(April 13, 2010)--The UTSA Institute for Economic Development (IED) will host a delegation from the El Salvador Ministry of the Economy on April 19-20. The delegation will include Vice Minister Mario Antonio Cerna and Ileana Rogel, executive director of the Salvadoran small business assistance program CONAMYPE, along with 20 representatives of business, community and academic institutions.
The goal of the visiting delegation will be a first-hand understanding of how the Small Business Development Center (SBDC) program, as exemplified by the UTSA Institute for Economic Development, assists small businesses via counseling and training services.
"We selected the SBDC model because it is results-oriented and really reaches all segments of small business," said Cerna.
The Salvaldoran delegation's agenda includes tours of UTSA's international trade, government contracting and rural business specialty centers. In the United States, a network of more than 1,000 SBDCs help entrepreneurs start, grow and remain competitive in the global economy.
"The El Salvador micro and small business assistance organizations will be able to develop the export assistance capacity that will enable thousands of micro and small businesses to access international trade opportunities," said Al Salgado, director of the South-West Texas Border Small Business Development Center Network, which spans a 79-county region of Texas.
Following its UTSA visit, the delegation will travel to Washington, D.C., to meet with representatives from the Small Business Administration, the House and Senate Small Business Committees, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Organization of American States.
The Institute for Economic Development is leading an expansion of the Small Business Development Center model into Latin America; the institute already has helped establish more than 80 SBDCs in Mexico and Columbia.
In February, Robert McKinley, UTSA associate vice president for economic development, led a delegation of staff to El Salvador to meet with stakeholders interested in evaluating the SBDC model for El Salvador.
"Surveys done by USAID after the February meetings revealed that 99 percent of attendees thought the SBDC model would work in their country," McKinley said.
El Salvador's Ministry of Economy and CONAMYPE are committed to starting an SBDC network in El Salvador to help its small-business sector create jobs, increase competitiveness and to link with U.S. small businesses for international trade opportunities via a new online trade platform called SBDCGlobal.com.
The UTSA Institute for Economic Development provides professional business consultation, technical training, research, and strategic planning services to help establish and grow small businesses. The institute comprises 10 programs that serve the Texas-Mexico border area as well as regional, national and international outreach efforts. Together with federal, state and local governments, and private businesses, the institute fosters economic and community development in support of UTSA's community engagement mission.

Presence Holy Family Medical Center Now Offers Walk-in Mammograms Without a Physician's Order
First in Area to Offer Innovative Approach to Preventive Breast Care
The Women's Imaging Center at Presence Holy Family Medical Center (HFMC) is making it easier and more convenient for today's busy women to tend to their recommended annual mammography screening. There's no more waiting weeks or even months like at most diagnostic imaging centers to take preventive measures in screening for early breast cancer detection, instead women can simply walk into the Women's Imaging Center—without an appointment and without a physician's order.
Presence HFMC offers the most advanced technology in digital mammography and is the first imaging center in northwest Chicago and the surrounding suburbs to welcome walk-ins for a screening mammogram without a physician order. Walk-in appointments are treated with the same great care as advance appointments, and are seamlessly worked into the day's schedule so patients can be seen as soon as possible. Results are available within 24 hours of the test.
"Meeting the demands of today's busy women allows us to fulfill our mission and goals as a health care provider. We always put our patient's needs first and strive to exceed their expectations. As our patients' needs change, we are right there with them, growing and adapting to best serve them," said Pam Bell, CEO, Presence Holy Family Medical Center.
If the patient does not have a primary care doctor, a Presence HFMC physician will be assigned to review the results in order to make sure accurate follow-up and treatment are received as necessary. In addition to screening and diagnostic mammograms, ultrasounds, ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy and other imaging services are available.
The Women's Imaging Center is a designated Breast Imaging Center of Excellence (BICOE) by the American College of Radiology (ACR), and features a spa atmosphere with tranquil music, heated robes and a patient resource center. Hours are from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday – Friday, and from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday. Evening appointments are also available by calling 847.813.3273.

My Laundry Question
what is the best way to remove old or dried urine stain from a mattress?
Share a Little Background Info
my grandson had wet the bed overnight when he visited and the mattress was mostly dried when we found out. the mattress is a foam type with a non-removable cover that already had a urine stain on it from a previous owner. I do not know what if anything was done to clean the old stain.
Lessons Learned
- have washed with a dish soap and warm water and sponge but there is still a slight smell of urine and there is a stain mark on the mattress
Fabric Content of Item (if appropriate)
foam with a non-removable cover
Mary Marlowe Leverette, About.com Laundry & Laundry Rooms, says:
Mix a solution of 1 part white vinegar and 2 parts dishwashing liquid. Apply onto the stain generously with a sponge. Allow it to sit for 30 minutes. Take a clean, wet sponge and pull up as much of the soap cleaner that you can. Sprinkle wet area generously with cornstarch and leave for several hours or overnight, then vacuum. This should take care of the odor.
If a stain remains, mix a solution of oxygen-based bleach (OxiClean, Clorox 2, Country Save Bleach, Purex 2 Color Safe Bleach) and water following package directions. Apply to the stained area and let work for an hour or so. Blot stain with white rag or paper towels until no more moisture can be removed. Allow to dry. Repeat as necessary.
Good luck!

Bottling System
The entire bottling system of the Volvic plant has been designed and fully automated to preserve the water's natural qualities. The water is conveyed to the plant through a stainless steel pipeline where it is bottled immediately without any exterior contact. It takes a short period of time for Volvic water to be drawn from deep inside the volcanic aquifer to a sealed environment inside the bottle, to prevent any possibility of contamination.

Elliott Chaze: A Biography
By Kara Templeton (SHS)
Twentieth century Mississippi author Lewis Elliott Chaze penned nine novels about rural life in the South before he died in 1990. Chaze, pronounced "shayze,"(May 89) was born to Lewis and Sue Chaze on November 15, 1915, in Mamu, Louisiana. He went to Bolton High School in Alexandria, Louisiana, and graduated in 1932 (Keys 87). After high school he attended Washington and Lee (1932-1934), Tulane University (1935), and received his B.A. from Oklahoma University (1937) (May 89). Chaze's first career in journalism was for the New Orleans Bureau of the Associated Press (Keys 87). He served a stint in the U.S. Army during World War II in the 11th Airborne Divison as a technical sergeant (May 89). After World War II he remained in Japan for a time while American troops occupied the country. Later, he transferred to the Denver, Colorado, Associated Press Bureau. In 1951, Chaze began a long career with the Hattiesburg American (Hattiesburg, Mississippi), first as a reporter and later as city editor from 1970-1980 (Keys 87).
Chaze's novels are based on his own life experiences. His first novel (1947), The Stainless Steel Kimono, is a fictional novel based on the lives of seven paratroopers in Japan during the war. The Golden Tag, his second novel (1950) highlights the life of a young wire service reporter and would-be novelist in New Orleans. Both of these novels closely resemble Chaze's own life. Chaze penned his third novel in 1953, Black Wings Has My Angel, about an armored car robbery that takes place in Colorado. In the late 1960's when Chaze reported for the Hattiesburg American, he wrote two novels, Tiger in the Honeysuckle and Wettermark. Both novels chronicle the lives of young newspaper reporters in Mississippi (Keys 87). His last novels, Goodbye Goliath and Mr. Yesterday, were published five years before his death in 1990 (May 89).
Black Wings Has My Angel, awarded the Fawcett Gold Medal Paperback Award, became Chaze's first award for his fictional writings (Bertram F2). A prolific writer, he also authored many articles and short stories for popular magazines including Life, Reader's Digest, New Yorker, Redbook, Collier's, and Cosmopolitan. As a newspaper writer, Chaze was honored with the Hal Boyle Memorial Award for the best personal column in the Louisiana-Mississippi sector (May 89). His column, On the Lopside, appeared in a number of newspapers, and he received awards for the column.
Chaze married the former Mary Vincent (May 89). They had five children, Mary Elliot, William, Kim, Jessica, and Chris. An active author until his death, Chaze died in 1990 at the age of 74 (Keys 87). Chaze described himself as a "skilled speaker of dog-latin." Regaring his success and motivation, Chaze made this statement, "My motivation, if there is any discernible, is probably ego and fear of mathematics, with overtones of money. Primarily I have a simple desire to shine my ass - to show off a bit" (May 89).
His books are currently out of print but that will change in 2001,
when California publisher Donald S. Ellis reprints Black
Wings Has My Angel through his Black River Books.
Barry Gifford, in the January/February issue of the Oxford
American, says the this novel is "an astonishingly
well written literary novel that just happened to be about (or
roundabout) a crime." The book is called a "cult classic"
and is about a robbery that involves murder and prostitution
and mystery. The narrator sets himself up for his own
fall. Chaze, newsman and suspense writer, will soon be
available for readers again.
Update: Chaze's long-lost classic, Black Wings Has My
Angel,a legend among noir buffs, has now become available.
It is published by Blackmask publishers.
A Review
of Little David
by Kara Templeton (SHS)
In the great Mississippi classic, Little David, by Elliott Chaze, the protagonist shows the Southern fire that is inside us all. A struggling journalist in Cathryne, Alabama, Kiel St. James is faced with trying to figure out a murder based on Biblical background. St. James, age 70, had been a reporter earlier in his career, and the town detective, Boles, phones him with a request to help solve the mystery. C.B. Barrington, the town commissioner, has been killed by a headwound by the mysterious "Little David." As you read, you learn that he was killed with a stone in the center of his forehead, just as the Biblical character Goliath was slain by David. The murderer leaves the town without substantial clues of who he is, leaving the town asking questions such as "How in God's name could anyone sink a rock that size in the bone?" The town waits in anticipation to see when and if he will strike again. In an effort to solve the mystery, St. James interviews the townspeople. While trying to solve the first murder, a second one is committed. This time Mayor Leon Link, the old, crazy mayor previously interviewed by St. James is murdered. After the second murder, St. James discovers where the stones used in the murders originate. While St. James is trying to solve the murders, interesting people and relationships evolve throughout the book. Chaze weaves an interesting tale of small town murders, characters, and relationships in the rural South. Read this entertaining mystery to find out who Little David is.

Björn Säfsten: Fictional Copies
AboutFriday 11 April 2014 / 19.30 Saturday 12 April 2014 / 14.30 & 19.30 BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art / Level 1 / Duration: 60 mins Booking essential online at balticmill.com/tickets / £12.00 / £8.00 concession BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art in association with Dance City presents Fictional copies. Created during 2013 by choreographer Björn Säfsten, set and lighting design collective SUTODA and five performers. The performance examines the importance of photography in today's culture and how it has become a significant force in the development of our identity, how we present ourselves and interact with others. In a space that documents all actions, the audience and performers share a common space and in doing so are all asked to take responsibility for the events which are created within it. A multitude of images captured in the opening minutes flow into the rest of the performance and ask what is there to trust? Within the space the folding and manipulation of the images bends our trust in what we think is original. We are taken through a number of suggestions and scenarios that manipulate the way we perceive the images before us, and in doing so, question how we interpret the signs displayed. Björn Säfsten creates choreographic art in close collaboration with his current artistic team. Fictional copies is a development and continuation of the themes he has explored recently, in the critically acclaimed Introduction 2012 and a commission for Skà ¥nes Dansteater,...AND... 2013. He lives in Stockholm, Sweden. Co-production: Säfsten Produktion / National Choreographic Centre of Caen / Basse-Normandie and festival Les Boréales / The Swedish Centre for Architecture and Design / NorrlandsOperan.

Arc Basin Mixer & Mirror Storage by David Goss is an interesting idea that combines three functions into one simple, discreet unit. This multi-functional bathroom accessory that besides providing with water to help you wash your hands lets you store your stuff. A wide (but controlled) plane of water emerges, momentarily extending the arc beyond its metallic form. The mirror pivots along one edge to reveal a concealed storage cabinet. Arc strikes a balance between form and function, highlighting both the preciousness and scarcity of this rich resource, and highlighting the elemental beauty inherent in cascading water. For now this idea is just a concept, but I have to admit that it looks pretty amazing don't you think ? – Via – Hometone
One comment
yeah you're right, the design is rather cool. I always get excited when multi-functional furniture and accessories are designed, because it really is something we have need, as our homes seems to get smaller.

Padraig Harrington's never-say-die attitude can help him return to the top of world golf, says Rob Lee.
Padraig Harrington's never-say-die attitude can help him return to the apex of world golf, says Rob Lee.
Last Updated: 09/01/13 6:52pm
Aside from his fourth-placed finish at the US Open in 2012, the Irishman hasn't really got close since he won the last of his three Majors - the PGA Championship - in 2008, which capped off a glittering 13 months.
Harrington, the 2007 and '08 British Open titlist, showed signs of improvement last term, ending a two-year wait for a title by claiming the Grand Slam of Golf in October, and he will be looking to push on in 2013.
Padraig is a renowned tinkerer and while you could argue that is the way to seek perfection, sometimes in golf you don't realise when you've got it sussed, and I think constant swing changes contributed to Harrington going backwards rapidly and tumbling down the rankings.
The Dubliner can come again, though, because he has a huge heart and never knows when he is beaten; he will always find a way to hole a chip or make a putt, and doesn't get scared when he is in a winning position.
Harrington is 41 now and golf does became harder as you get older; everything slows down, you tend to get injured more and you have to work harder to keep your weight down, your mobility up and yourself out on the course.
But Padraig has enough about him to get back to the pinnacle of world golf, and would dearly love to get his year up and running by winning this week's Volvo Golf Champions in South Africa.
The start of the season is a vital time for players who have just received their card from the qualifying school or moved up from the Challenge Tour.
They have to play well pretty much every time they go out, as they are not going to get too many opportunities to rack up the pounds and secure their Tour card.
I'm sure the rookies and unheralded players will be looking at what Branden Grace did in 2012; the South African began his campaign with victories at the Joburg Open and at the Volvo and went on to have a stellar year, ending it with four European Tour titles.
But I think that it is an anomaly and will be virtually impossible to recreate, so these players need to focus on making cuts and getting some money on the board.
Players looking to surge up the rankings and win tournaments always like to kick off the year with a victory, too, and that's what Dustin Johnson achieved at the weather-affected Hyundai Tournament of Champions in Hawaii.
Johnson, who has now amassed seven wins on the PGA Tour, is a fantastic athlete and a fantastic player, but the brain switch-off does scare me at times.
His final round in Kapalua was not error free and he also saw his hopes of triumphing at the 2010 USPGA shattered after he hit a shot from the bunker and grounded his club.
I think he needs to be sharper mentally in order to fulfil his potential.
There are a host of American players who could flourish this year, but I will be interested to see how Webb Simpson, last year's US Open champion, and Keegan Bradley, the 2011 USPGA winner, fare.
Both men use the anchored putter and with that device likely to be banned in a few years' time, I wonder whether they will stick with it hammer-and-tong for the next few seasons or adapt their putting.
Either way, I expect Bradley to have a very successful campaign and I think Rickie Fowler will, too - provided he can stay fit.
Steve Stricker, who finished second at the Hyundai, a year on from winning the tournament, has announced that he will play no more than 10 tournaments in 2013 and that seems pretty extreme to me.
I know the 46-year-old wants more family time, so perhaps a complete year off might have been the answer, leaving him able to come back refreshed for 2014.
Tournament schedules are a very personal thing; some players perform better playing most weeks, while others benefit from having time off - but I think Steve's decision to feature in so few events, could backfire.
It will be hard for him to play that well playing that little and it renders his chances of qualifying for the 2014 Ryder Cup almost impossible, as he probably won't even get close to an automatic berth.
Still, if Stricker wins two Majors from his 10 starts, what do I know?
Hit the video below for Rob's preview of the 2013 season, which includes his thoughts on Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods...
Paul Casey injured his shoulder on a snowboard this time last year, but he is fit again now and I think he will have a good season. I will back him at 22/1 with Sky Bet to win the Volvo Golf Champions, while I wouldn't be surprised if Dustin Johnson tastes victory for the second week in a row at the Sony Open.
Johnson, the 9/1 favourite, didn't back off at the Hyundai and every time he made a mistake he got his driver out and gave the ball a hit, which shows how confident he must be. He also coped well with the windy conditions and with the weather likely to be gusty at the Sony, too, he must have a great chance.

Discussion in 'Fly Fishing Forum' started by Don Barton, Apr 20, 2011.
Hey Jesse, got anything to say on topic or do you only insult people?
A buddy of mine worked as a store manager for the Kaufmann Bros. for a few years. Basically, they were both primadonna pricks who ended up treating my hardworking friend like a piece of shit. He quit and went to another shop. Too bad about losing another fly shop but I don't give a rats ass about the Kaufmann Bros. When I met Randall, I thought he was a conceded asshole and I'm glad he's out of the biz! Good riddens to them. People like that give flyfishing and flyfishers a bad name!
I remember the Bellevue location was OK, when Sparky and there was another fella (drove an old K-5 Blazer) really cool dude & great fisherman. I have picked up a couple rods from those cats. I do recall years later after the replacement crew, things became sour and my feelings had shifted. Never did go back, then the Bellevue store closed some time ago. Something had me thinking......... why a store in downtown Seattle, with crap parking and to many people? I never did go to the downtown location. I wish I did see the Seattle store? Its like the time I drank a beer the day before the Stardust in Vegas closed = kinda sad. Or like this one time in band camp when Jimmy and Golfman found this goat up in Lyman, they......................
I don`t know how relevant this is , as I`ve never been in a Kauffman`s store , and certainly don`t know anyone who ever worked there .
C&P from elsewhere ...The manager from their Oregon Store has started his own venture "Royal Treatment Fly Fishing". He's opened a nice store in the Portland area and has an online business as well. Joel LaFollette is the owner.
It is sad to see Kaufman's go and I wish someone could have bought the business. Maybe Joels shop will take the good things from Kaufman's and make it better.
Very sorry to hear. I liked Kaufmann's. I wish I would have kept the last catalog I had of theirs. While I haven't frequented many fly shops the past couple of years, when I really needed something, I readily went to Kaufmann's and I know my wife regularly got me Christmas presents from there. They were always super friendly and were helpful in recommending some great flies for my last trip to Florida to fish for Redfish and Speckled Trout.
I walked by the Seattle store yesterday. The door was locked and there was a small pile of mail on the floor, a few feet from the door.
I remember when I used to go to the store in the "U" district. Then it closed . It seems that all good thing just come to an end. It's a sad thing when fly shops close. I used to hang out at AATF, and now it is closed. Whats next ??
Not true duffer! From the webpage:
Welcome to ALL ABOUT THE FLY.
We are an internet fly shop, with call-for-appointment hours for the local crowd. The shop phone number (360-863-1833) has been moved to a cell phone, so you can still reach 'Ron at the shop.'
I first got into fly fishing in Colorado, where a friend made me a custom fly rod and colluded with my wife to get me the rest of the stuff to take up the sport. Soon after I moved to Seattle in the mid 90's, I went on a pack trip into the Wyoming mountains where the packers lost a duffel containing, among other things, that fly rod.
I was new to Seattle and still relatively new to fly fishing, so I made the circuit to all of the fly shops in the Seattle area to try to find a replacement rod. I had been fishing for a while by then, but it was the first time I had bought a rod. I received the most attention and helpful service from the Bellevue Kaufmanns store and rewarded them with the purchase of a fine Sage rod that I enjoy to this day.
I've always had a soft spot in my heart for Kaufmanns' since then, even though geographic proximity has led me to favor a couple other shops in recent years.
Randall Kaufmann is a giant of a name in western fly fishing. It's sad to see the shop bearing his name and legacy disappear.
To be blunt, if they treat me like shit, why would I give a crap about them?
Do you care about people that break into your car? Oh, I hope they didnt cut their arm on all this broken glass...
I stop by the shop in Welches maybe twice a year, and just about everytime we are greeted with a handshake and kill some time talking about the Crooked River. Anytime I said the word Crooked or White fish at Kaufmans, I was looked at like a second rate person...
The shop in general closed their doors. I just can't hang out on a web page and bull shit with the owner.
my condolences to those of you that frequented Kauffmans and will be missing them. I had been in there only a handfull of times, but found the place well decorated and stocked to the hilt. Of course that was several years ago. I know what its like to lose a community resource " a genuine fly shop" is a community resource, and the loss of these shops does not bode well for the industry. An industry rep that I know told me that over 30% of the fly shops in his area had closed down, and that was over a year ago. Look at all the shops back east that have shut down and the Reno fly shop. all gone.............
It pays to live in a Trout rich state. The fly shops 9in Montana and in my area all do a half way good business. Slow in the winter time but busy in the warm months.
i have only been into one MT fly shop that i would consider a junior sized trout focused kaufmans. the rest of'um are botiques, sort of like the bozeman angler. virtually everyone i have gone into carries tons of pretied flies at significant cost, but next no materials for the travelling anglers. of course, you have to figure out your business model to be successful and those are the things that sell like hot cakes, more power to'um but not my cup of tea.
and you have to remember, kaufmans didn't think of trout as the only flyfishing species worth looking into. ever talk with jerry about their trips?? anything that swims was ok at kaufmans and they carried what you needed to make the adventure a success. that part of losing this business is going to be very difficult to replace without shopping via the internet.
then you couple all of this 'stuff' with employees who knew you by name, had actually travelled to many of these locations and knew the inside scoop, and you had a business model under randall that was astonishing. then along came lance.....................
You must not have been in to many shops in Montana, and in fact shops like the Bozeman Angler are more so the exception out here. Hit up Troutfitters in Bozeman of Greater Yellowstone Fly Fishers in 4 corners. Also check out Frontier Angler's in Dillon. Frontier and GYF are very Kaufmann's like (when kman's were in their prime) and focus on the local trout, but also have info for all over the world. The big difference I notice between these shops and K-mans was customer service, it was a 50% chance on getting talked to at the downtown kman store when I went in there, and the shops in MT treat you like you've been in there all the time. It sucks to see fly shops go out, especially K-mans (I too remember drooling over there catalog before the internets, and I have friends who worked in their Tigard store), but it should serve as a good reminder to support your local shop when you can.
I agree with you Joe. There are some great shops there. I remember fishing the Ford one day right after I got out of H.S. . I fished it most of the day catching only a couple. I was surprised to see a rig parked at the big spring. I watched at afar as this guy caught fish after fish. Later that day I ran into the guy. It was Randall. We talked and he asked how I was doing. I told him not good and he said here take a couple of these. The were big black carpenter ants. I thanked him and proceeded to crush fish. Thank you Randall !!!!
After reading this thread I feel the need to speak out about this subject.
1) As a former employee of Kaufmann's, it is sad to see that they have closed their doors after 41 years of service in the flyfishing industry.
2) The staff at Kaufmann's were some of the best in the business - some were rough around the edges and not the most professional by today's standards of customer service. Don't judge a book by it's cover. Unless you knew them on a personal level, you do not really know what they are like at all.
3) To this day, I am still friends with Randall and have been for over 20 years; if you knew him, you would know that he would do just about anything for you.
4) They did not treat their emploiyee's poorly. I will say that they had some unorthodox methods of running a business, but they were not a bad company to work for at all and offered some nice perks for anyone who appreciates fly fishing.
5) More than anything, I sincerely hope Lance and his family are able to work thru whatever it is that has resulted in the closure of Streamborn.
After closing up my freelance ad agency in 2003 and going to work at Patrick's to find out if I would like turning my avocation, flyfishing, into my vocation, I received a call from Ryan Petzold at Kaufmann's. I interviewed with Randall and when I returned to the shop three hours later, Dennis Worley and Ryan were wondering what the hell happened? Turns out, Randall and I were close to the same age and simply spent three hours reliving our hippie days. What a hoot! When I went to work at both the Bellevue and downtown stores, I was treated to some of the awesomely funny stories of all big names in NW flyfishing that worked for Randall and Lance throughout the years. A book should be written.
I learned an awful lot from Bob Aid, Dennis, Ryan, Blair Alexander, Gary Thompson, and Randy down in Tigard. I owe a lot of what I know now to Kmann and I, for one, will miss them.
I've known Bob Aid for along time. He help me when I was in my teen's. He is a great guy! I'm sure he will pop up some where. Good luck to all!!!
I loved the print catalog. I used to fall asleep many a night reading about the trips they offered, checking out flies and accessories, and dreaming of having some of those high-end rods and reels.
