Well this another one I start a couple of months ago & since the Camaro is finished I start back up on the Hemi Dart. The color is Root Beer & the pic does not do it justice. I had to raise up the Hood scope to accommodate the aluminum stacks on the carbs. Reworked the rear wheel tubs for some wider meats and made a different rear end. The interior is just about finished just have to add a few details & a Tach yet.
68 Hemi NO# 2 Build after 15 yrs
Posted 03 March 2013 - 03:17 PM
Posted 03 March 2013 - 03:23 PM
Also built a custom center console & shifter & the bezel that is over the shifter. Will also be installing front discs & calipers and may try to run the brake lines also & also scratch built a set of traction bars for the rear.
Posted 03 March 2013 - 04:21 PM
Great job!! and i love that color!!
Posted 03 March 2013 - 04:27 PM
Also going to add the strip on the back in white.
Posted 04 March 2013 - 02:00 AM
Posted 04 March 2013 - 07:33 PM
Was not sure if the two tone interior would go with the Root Beer paint. Here are few pictures of the wheels & tires and the hood after being painted.

Clear coated the rims tonight & made mounting plates for the rear backing plates to axle housing & painted them.
Posted 10 March 2013 - 06:43 PM
Well have gotten it cleared and the strip on the rear & should have done some research on the rear strip because it's not far enough back on the trunk and as it goes down the sides it is slanted forward a bit.

awesome!! turning out great
Posted 11 March 2013 - 11:22 AM
Cool! That color is pretty similar to what is on my 1:1 Thunderbird.
Posted 14 March 2013 - 05:58 PM
Going to have to repaint ! Leaving the rubber band on overnight to get the ride height correct cut into the paint pretty bad.
Learning something new everyday.
Posted 16 March 2013 - 03:50 PM
Picked up another Revell Hemi kit to use the body & hood for the repaint and will be changing the color also even though I liked the Rootbeer.Plus the 426 in this kit is done really well so I'll be using that for a future build. So hopefully I will be able to get this painted tomorrow since today i did the body clean up & scribed the door and trunk lines & primered the body today.
Posted 16 March 2013 - 04:37 PM
You can strip the old paint off the 1st body with castol super clean, you can find it at wal mart
Posted 16 March 2013 - 04:42 PM
Yes I know but want to get this done plus i needed another 426 Hemi motor for a future project.
Posted 17 March 2013 - 04:10 PM
Got the Hemi Dart primed today and some of my next build which is a Lamborghini Aventador. Man I really like the Tamiya Primer that primer goes on really thin and smooth.
Posted 23 March 2013 - 02:24 PM
Well I finally got the 68 Hemi repainted today in Bronze it was Root Beer & the Root Beer just did not look right to me plus when I installed the rear decal strip I laid it down wrong and the rubber band I had wrapped around the front to hold on the frame so I could get the ride height right on the front cut into the paint really bad. Plus I worked on the Lamborghini Aventador Brake assembly's.[attachment=34736:IMG_1300.JPG][attachment=34737:IMG_1303.JPG][attachment=34738:IMG_1302.JPG]
Posted 24 March 2013 - 01:19 PM
[attachment=34832:IMG_1305.JPG][attachment=34833:IMG_1306.JPG]Got the Decals on last night & cleared the body and hood today so hopefully if everything goes right I can get the Dart assembled sometime this week.
Posted 24 March 2013 - 01:21 PM
Love the color and the soft drink! IIRC, MOPAR made a series of street legal HEMI Darts labeled "Baby Grands".
Posted 26 March 2013 - 06:44 PM
Here are some mock up photos. I still need to rub out the clear coat which I will do this weekend add the coolant hoses,brake lines,seat belts etc and get the stance done.[attachment=35013:IMG_1309.JPG][attachment=35014:IMG_1310.JPG][attachment=35015:IMG_1311.JPG][attachment=35016:IMG_1312.JPG]

Prince Aha Stool
No one deconstructs traditional form like the subversively playful Philippe Starck. A kinetic piece, his Prince AHA Stool erases the distinction between seat and base, each becoming the other when the stool is turned upside down. Use it as a side table, foot stool or for additional seating. As an added benefit, the end caps are removable to create discreet, concealed storage. The Prince AHA, manufactured by Kartell, delights through mobility, color and shape – and proves that the unexpected is a…read more

press release
It was reported today that less than 3 000 police officers have been declared competent in the use of firearms since January this year. Matching this data with figures released earlier this year, this means that South Africa has approximately 24 000 police officers on the streets who have not been declared competent to use firearms.
This is a disaster waiting to happen. Police Minister Nathi Mthethwa must take urgent steps to address the lack of training that is making police officers a potential danger to the citizens they are meant to protect.
Earlier this year, a leaked performance audit revealed that 27 000 police officers had failed their firearms proficiency test. The report today which quotes the Safety and Security Seta spokesperson, Isabel Bowden, reveals that since January, only 3 353 applications for renewal have been received and of those only 2 112 certificates have been issued so far.
Progressing at the current rate, it would thus take us eight years to ensure that the current group of 27 000 officers are declared competent to use firearms. One must ask how the SAPS will possibly cope with firearm licence renewals of about 160 000 operational SAPS members.
This information, coupled with the fact that 16 954 police officers do not have driver's licences and numerous officers fail fitness assessments, makes us question what the Minister is doing for his department.
Minister Mthethwa's spokesperson, Zweli Mnisi, says that the Minister is actively involved in ensuring police officers are competent. If that is true, then the Minister himself must be incompetent.
I will be writing to the Chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Police to ask that the Minister presents a plan at the earliest opportunity next year on how he will ensure every officer in the South African Police Service meets the basic requirements of being able to drive, shoot and run.
The Minister needs to ensure that his department gets the basics right. We need fit, trained police officers out there fighting crime. Failure to achieve this puts the lives and safety of all South Africans at risk.

10 Simple Ways To Improve Staff Morale
Company directors are constantly trying to improve staff morale and make their company the best place to work. You don't have to turn your whole company upside down to keep staff happy, there are lots of simple things you can do that are all likely to boost morale.
Creating the perfect working environment for staff is quite difficult but it's something you should be constantly striving to do. If you can boost morale, even by a small amount you are likely to see big increases in productivity across the board.
Staff really like to be rewarded and really appreciate it when managers reward their hard work.
10 Ways to Improve Staff Morale
If you want to keep your staff happy then try these 10 simple ways to improve staff morale.
1. Offer Bonuses
Staff are more likely to work harder and achieve their targets if they have the possibility of getting a bonus. Put a reasonable bonus scheme in place if you want to get the most out of your staff.
2. Give Creative Rewards
Don't just give all the normal rewards, try and think of some clever and creative ways to reward your staff. Have a brainstorm with team members and some staff representatives to see what rewards would motivate them the most.
3. Improve The Working Environment
Staff are much happier when they get to work in a nice office environment. Check the temperature of the office, make sure desks are well lit and give your office a bit of a refurb if it's looking a bit neglected.
4. Take Feedback On Board
If you not only take staff feedback on board but put it into action then you could really boost morale. Employees will really notice if you switch things up a bit and demonstrate that you have taken on board their suggestions.
5. Encourage Communication
In offices where people feel like they cannot openly communicate the morale is often very low. Make sure you allow people to communicate and feel comfortable voicing valuable opinions in the workplace.
6. Stamp Out Negativity
Negativity is a huge issue when it comes to not only staff morale, but staff productivity. If staff are being brought down by negative team members you expect productivity to take a nose dive. Try and manage negativity and speak to people who are consistently negative.
7. Encourage Positivity
Encourage positive staff and create a working environment that feeds off positivity. Make sure that managers and senior members of staff are always positive in front of the rest of their team.
8. Have Strong Company Ethics
Having strong company ethics is a good way to promote good staff morale right from the start. Try and have a mission statement and company ethics that staff feel passionate about.
9. Working With Charities
Working with charities and members of the local community is a good way of boosting staff morale. It enables them to get involved with causes they feel strongly about and raise money for charity as a team.
10. Have Some Fun
This is perhaps the most important point of all. Don't create an environment where employees feel they are not allowed to have any fun. Having a good laugh occasionally can really raise people's spirits and make them want to come into work every day.
Follow these 10 ways and improve the morale of employees.

See http://www.nsc.res.in/~elab/phoenix/
`Phoenix' (Physics with homemade equipment and innovative experiments)
is perhaps the only product of its kind working on GNU/Linux. Says
Pramode C.E.: "The project is fast reaching maturity (a bootable CD is
ready, some manufacturers have started taking orders for the hardware
box, a mailing list is in place ...)."
Physics with Homemade Equipment and Innovative Experiments
* Improve the accuracy of existing experiments by redesigning them
using the low cost interface.
* Encourage students and teachers to design new experiments.
* Learn science from the experimental data by constructing
mathematical models governing various phenomena.
* Create a synergy between engineering and physics students so
that new physics experiments can be designed as the project
works of the former.
* Develop demonstrations that can be used in the classroom.
* Student projects based on phoenix
* Demos and science fare items for school students.
There can be achieved only with active collaboration of large number of
people at various levels. Contributions from physicists,
engineers,teachers and students are equally important. We hope it will
be realized. See above URL.

Great Liners
By Huwie
from Chicago, IL
About Me Performance oriented, Practical
Comments about DaKine Scirocco Liner Gloves:
Great liners. Fits close to skin, breathable, and easily slides into ski gloves/mountains on cold days. Warm enough to wear as a stand alone pair on warmer days on the slopes (30+ degrees F) and works well for runs outside in chilly weather. Would definitely recommend for both price and performance.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Havent tried it yet but went nicely under the ski glove. should be able to keep the hands real warm!
Does the job!
By P_Nizzle
from Kansas City, MO
About Me Comfort-oriented, Practical
Comfy and warm as a liner or alone. Did start seeing pilling after two days of use - don't know if it's from the other gloves or using them alone. Still a great purchase.
Satisfactory handware
By Dave
from Wyoming
About Me Practical
Good gloves. Durable manufacturing. I use them underneath my motorcycle gloves for riding at night and in cool weather. They do a great job of insulating while not stifiling air flow.
They run a little small.
By Matt the runner
from Appleton, WI
About Me High-end shopper, Practical
I wear a medium in most ski gloves but these liners run a little small. The large fit nice.
Very good product
By J Guess the biker
from Corvallis, OR
About Me Comfort-oriented, Trendy
I use the product every day when biking to class in those rainy Oregon winter days. They're lightweight and I can wear them and keep warm without having bulky gloves to inhibit braking.
Best mix of dual functionality
By AX
from RI
About Me High-end shopper, Stylish, Trendy
These are great. You can wear them around casually. and as under gloves. For the chilly days it works perfectly well, however these are not intended to be your main gloves, but rather worn under other ones. This causes a lack of grip and waterproofing, but they're still awesome.

Flint-area Wrestler of the Year Roger Wildmo (No. 4 @ 152) was determined to dominate this season.
The Durand senior's mission was to do plenty of sweating in practice so he would hardly have to break a sweat in matches. And that's exactly what happened as he was rarely tested in finishing unbeaten for the second straight year.
Wildmo went 59-0 with 47 pins, concluding his career with a third Division 3 state championship. The 152-pounder is the first area wrestler to finish as an unbeaten state champion in consecutive seasons since Davison's Brent Metcalf in 2004 and 2005.
"I worked very hard in practice to be sure I was completely ready for every match and never anybody lightly no matter what," Wildmo said. "My goal was to make myself exhausted by the end of practice."
While Wildmo might have been spent when practice concluded, it was his opponents who were feeling that way when matches ended. Only 12 of 59 went the distance with the MIchigan State signee and only one of those — Lowell's Andrew Morse (H.M. @ 145) — kept the final score within five points.
Morse, a Division 2 state champion and the state's top-ranked 145-pounder, took a 2-0 lead in the first 30 seconds against Wildmo at the New Lothrop Invitational, but mounted little offense as Wildmo rallied for a 6-2 win.

Unluckily, last week I lost my measuring tape. It was unlucky as I had to measure Daniel's toy box.
Luckily though I could remember that the top had an area of 720 square inches, the side was 800 square inches and the end was 360 square inches.
What were the true dimensions of the toy box?

Over the past year my blog has grown more succesful than I could ever have imagined, and as it has grown, so has the amount of PR requests. I personally dislike writing these about PR and samples as I dont wish to sound rude, ungrateful or greedy, however my guildines do need to be stated somewhere!
I do accept PR items, but only if they're relevent to my blog, (for example, a beauty product such as shampoo is relative whilst gadget reviews are not!). I quite frequently get requests that I turn down as they have very little relevance to my blog and therefore it would be unfair of me to review said item. I can always tell when a PR company has genuinely read my blog, my disclaimer, my about me details.etc, and this pleases me. I know instantly when a company has not, and when I am part of a mass group and it is more likely that I will then turn the offer down. Sponsered/gifted items will always be reviewed with my own opinions, I will NEVER accept a product if I am asked to lie or be dishonest and my opinons are all my own. I will more than happily review a product negatively, if I personally dislike it, no matter whether it has been bought by me or gifted to me.
I will always clearly state as to what is PR products and what is not. Items will be labeled with 'C/O' (which stands for courtesy of) so that my readers can clearly see what is a free sample and what is not. I dont think its fair to be dishonest and to make out that I did buy the product, when quite clearly I did not.
All images, words,etc. are copyright to Dolly Daydream unless stated otherwise. Please refrain from using/taking these images without my permission. I will more than happily accept for you to use on of my images if I am made aware through an email or tweet. I will not be happy if I find my images being used elsewhere without my prior consent. I would apprecaite it if I do accept for you to use one of my images that you credit it back to me, so that it is clear where the photo came from and who took it! Not a lot to ask really!

With rumors about a Verizon iPhone 4 making rounds for quite some time now, and there being speculations about the device going on sale in January next year, a NYTimes article has suggested that a Verizon iPhone could actually benefit the AT&T network.
According to the article, even though AT&T is presently upgrading its network, in an effort to increase customers' satisfaction with the network, users are still complaining about the carrier's long-standing problems - dropped calls and irksome reception. As such, most of the existing iPhone users are of the opinion that Apple's switch to Verizon may turn out to be an answer to all their problems.
NYTimes has noted that the shift of some iPhone subscribers from AT&T to Verizon will likely take off some of the stress from the AT&T network; thus implying that those who stick to AT&T will, hopefully, no longer experience the reception issues which they are currently plagued with.
As of now, Verizon customers are certainly more satisfied with their network, vis-a-vis the AT&T customers. However, the release of a Verizon iPhone by Apple may potentially have an adverse affect on their network, in case a large number of customers joined Verizon; thereby increasing the chances of dropped calls and reception problems.
Though it is being widely believed that the Verizon network is capable of handling the extra stress resulting from a potential iPhone release, how well the carrier actually manages it all can only be gauged after the much-rumored Verizon iPhone is released!

Here's a craft idea for kids, using supplies you likely already have to hand.
You'll need :
4 wooden skewers (trimmed and with the pointy ends chopped off)
6 – 8 large popsicle sticks
Plastic pony beads
Hot glue gun.

If you follow our Facebook page, you'll have seen last week that I posted a photo of an old clipboard that my son had brought home from school for me. He was so excited to give it to me so that I could have the opportunity to give it a makeover, but I must admit I felt a little uninspired when I saw it! I didn't let him know that however, and instead I asked for some advice on how I should tackle the project. As ever, you Fiskateers were generous with your responses and ideas! Here's a round up of some suggestions that were made :
-Chalkboard paint
– Mod Podge with photos
– Stickers
– Decorate with paper and flowers
– Cover with fabric
– Add magnets and hang on the fridge
– Ink stamps and ribbons
– Decorate with pictures from magazines and other ephemera
I took your ideas on board and that afternoon, I pulled out some papers and supplies and got to work. I LOVED the idea of adding some photos, and since I had a couple of photos kicking around of my son from over the years, I decided to add them too. I used paper and sticker embellishments from the gorgeous Grace Collection by Authentique. The bright, yet vintage-y feel to the paper collection seemed fitting for this weather-worn and tired looking clipboard.
I'm going to bet you have some scraps of fabric needing to be used up for small projects. I'm also certain you're starting to thinking about Father's Day (coming up on June 15). Here's a win-win project that uses just a small amount of fabric and a little bit of time.
I used two different prints and made my coasters reversible. Retro glasses on one side and Pac Man (or Pac Men?) on the other.
Fabric scraps
Pellon Fusible Fleece
Pellon Vinyl Fuse
Fuse Creativity System and Circle Medium Die
Sewing machine and thread
Teflon machine foot, suitable for sewing vinyls
I've been wanting to write that post title ever since my brain starting figuring out how to make the Fuse Favor Wrap die into a fox! I think foxes are still going to be huge this year – and wouldn't they make a cute birthday party theme?!? I used my Petal by Petal punches to create the ears, cheeks and nose and drew a tail free hand and glued it to the back of the box. For the eyes, I used my tiny circle Pop Up punch and the center of the eyes were the circle from the L Petal by Petal punch. Sometimes I think that the hardest part of creating something like this is getting the scale correct on all the features.Now to consider what theme-appropriate treats to put inside the fox box! Any thoughts?
Crafting and chocolate is probably one of my very favorite combinations, do you agree? Here's some cute little bird's nests I made up, that I'll use to decorate the table over Easter, for my children (and for me too!)

'You don't get anything for nothing' is a commonly utilised phrase, which in this day and age (and current financial climate) is becoming more and more evident. Furthermore, there's an additional saying indicating the existence of an exception to every rule. In MyProtein, as a company and a brand, we have this very exception. They really are a consumer's dream. Simply by cutting out, amongst other things, the expensive advertising and unnecessary packaging, they have managed to keep their overheads relatively low. Consequently, MyProtein have been able to give back to their customers without having to skimp on quality.
So next time you hear someone saying 'you don't get anything for nothing' feel free to think of MyProtein, think of this particular article and feel free educate that particular individual that sometimes you do! One of the best ways to show MyProtein's incredible value for money and quality is through their award winning all in one supplement Hurricane XS. In fairness, we could have picked almost any of the product range to emphasise the point, from their whey protein to their creatine range, but we've gone with their incredible all in one.
All in ones, when compared to the other supplement categories sometimes seem to fall short and receive negative reviews. The major complaint with these supplements generally, is that they contain a little bit of everything but not enough of anything. Once again, this is simply not the case with Hurricane XS. MyProtein have left nothing to chance with this supplement and the end result really does hammer home this point.
Initially, you have the inclusion of low glycemic index, slow digesting carbohydrates in the form of their ultra fine Scottish oats. These allow for a sustained release of energy over a lengthy period of time, maintaining blood sugar levels and reducing that feeling of hunger. Consequently, this product is great as both a post workout supplement and a meal replacement. This particular product offers 20g per recommended serving.
Next we move onto the protein content found within this all in one supplement. The protein chosen has been recently modified and now comes from a dual combination of whey protein isolate and whey protein concentrate respectively. This protein is of high biological value and provides close to a whopping 30g per recommended serving, allowing for both muscular repair and growth.
Alongside the addition of high quality carbohydrates and protein, also found within its contents is 5g of creapure creatine. Once again creapure is an advanced creatine formula, allowing for enhanced gains in lean muscular mass and strength increments accordingly.
Impressed with what you've heard so far? Whilst other all in one supplements might call it a day there with the three main ingredients, MyProtein have also opted to add in 1.5g of HMB which is responsible for maintaining lean muscular mass whilst at the same time preventing catabolism.
These ingredients are all well and good but what does it taste like? MyProtein have once again placed themselves at the forefront of the competition by releasing 11 different flavour variations. From unflavoured to chocolate nut to toffee, there really is something for everyone. Even if you're the fussiest person in the world, you'd struggle to find a flavour that didn't appeal to your taste buds!
Speaking from personal experience the toffee is a definite winner for me. What's more is that it mixes with ease and doesn't leave an unpleasant aftertaste in your mouth that you get with some of the alternative competitors.
So there you have it, a brief overview of one of the premier brands and leading all in one supplements currently available on the health and fitness market. With prices at the time of writing starting from £30.49 for 2500g, it really is incredible value for money too.
All in one supplements are not for everyone and sometimes you have to purchase individual products if you're looking for a specific requirement or outcome. Having said that, if you're seeking an all in one supplement that doesn't disappoint and delivers every single time, then it has to be Hurricane XS.

Wage Gap: State Rankings 2012
November 14, 2013
Families depend on women's wages more than ever, but the typical woman working full time, year round is paid less than the typical full-time, year-round male worker. These disparities exist in every state. However, as indicated in the map below, the size of the disparity varies by state. Additionally, women represent nearly two-thirds of minimum wage workers — and full-time, year-round work at the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour leaves a woman with two children thousands of dollars below the poverty line. Working to close the wage gap and increasing the minimum wage are key steps towards fair pay for women.
Read our fact sheets on the state-by-state wage gaps for African-American women, Hispanic women, and women overall:

At the moment it may seem like fun to hold your own genome sequence, but have Craig Venter and colleagues considered the task of telling someone that they will develop Parkinson's disease, or end their life in a wheelchair, or simply await the day that their medication may fail and they might be struck down with a stroke or heart attack (12 October, p 12)?
My first heart attack seven years ago came out of the blue and I would not have had it otherwise. True, had the possibility or probability been known, my doctor would have advised various precautions. Equally, two hours before the onset of pain, I would not have been 10 metres up a large sycamore tree. But it is also true that my life would have been blighted by the knowledge.
My second heart attack was not detected until I had an angiogram this year. ...

Tagua Nut Nativity
Item Sku: 6301210
Tagua Nut Nativity
A tiny nativity, carved from Tagua nuts. Each figure is produced from an individual nut, with carved Tagua pieces adding details. This nativity wonderfully displays the unique attributes of the Tagua nut, including the contrast between the dark outer skin and the milky white interior. Also known as vegetable ivory, Tagua is produced by a palm-like tree in South America. The nuts fall to the ground when mature, thus harvesting does not damage the trees. Tagua nuts grain is close and very hard, resembling the finest ivory. Artisans carve each nut individually into the desired form. Cultural tradition and forest preservation combine in the use of this renewable resource. Set of 8

Check out the latest internship postings from 42Floors.
Unhelpful Google results are often the sign of a business opportunity. I started One Day One Job because I was frustrated with the junk that turned up when I'd search things like "entry level jobs" (there's still a lot of junk out there, but I'm doing my best to bring more quality to the results). Though I've never researched leasing an office, I hear that doing so is even more frustrating than looking for a job online. (I just searched for an office in my neighborhood, and the #1 result looks like it's from 1995.) 42Floors is a company that wants to finally bring the $25 billion office space/commercial real estate market online in a proper way. They're based in San Francisco, CA, which couldn't be a better place for this kind of business to get its start (the Bay Area is the only market they cover right now).
Going Up!
42Floors is what is known as an aggregator. They pull information from all across the web, organize it, and give it a pretty interface that makes it easy to use. This sounds simple, but it's a really tough technical problem. So far I'm really impressed with the 42Floors' product, but I think it will get even better as real estate agents start listing directly on their site (this will encourage better postings with more information). What I also like is that 42Floors has a showroom section of their site where you can look at furniture, services, decor, and pretty much anything else that you'd want to look at when you're getting a new office.
I really like what 42Floors is doing. They've seen what companies like Zillow and Redfin have done in residential real estate, and they think that they can do the same for office space. If they can, they're going to win big. They're going all out, which explains their interesting approach to recruiting talent. While they may not have offered any "internships" yet, the guy that they wrote about was a Sophomore in college. Age doesn't matter at 42Floors, so if you think that you can add something to what they're doing, reach out to them and let them know.

S. Korean Authorities Slammed for Driving KIZ into Crisis
|Pyongyang, April 17 (KCNA) -- The General Bureau for Central Guidance to the Development of the Special Zone of the DPRK issued a memorandum on Tuesday to clarify how the Kaesong Industrial Zone (KIZ) was built and who drove it into a crisis.
According to the memorandum, KIZ was built as a symbol of reconciliation, cooperation and reunification, pursuant to the bold decision made by leader Kim Jong Il out of his deep love for the nation and compatriots, valuing a south Korean businessman's patriotic will for reunification.
Kim Jong Il received Jong Ju Yong, honorary chairman of the Hyundai Group of south Korea, in October 1999 and June 2000 and met his request for allowing him to build a special economic zone for cooperation between the north and the south in an area of the north, the memorandum said, and went on: As a result, 123 south Korean businesses entered KIZ for co-prosperity.
The dear respected Marshal Kim Jong Un paid attention to KIZ despite the acute situation where the moves of anti-reunification forces for confrontation and war reached an extreme phase. He wisely led the work to ensure that operations in KIZ are preserved and reenergized.
The south Korean puppet conservative group, displeased with the building of KIZ from the outset, has run the whole gamut of moves to torpedo operations in the zone.
The "Grand National Party", the predecessor of the "Saenuri Party", obstructed the operations in KIZ as soon as the ground was broken in the zone, claiming that "special economic zone would help north develop nuclear weapons and missiles" and "it might be a drain on resources".
Coming to power, traitor Lee Myung Bak began to trample down the October 4 declaration, thus putting the brake in the wheel of implementing articles on the building of KIZ clarified in the declaration.
Kim Ha Jung, the then minister of Unification, in March 2008 at round-table talks with enterprise representatives in KIZ and on other occasions undisguisedly disclosed his black-hearted intention to derail the operations in KIZ.
Such moves of the Lee group got pronounced with the Cheonan warship sinking case in March 2010 as an occasion. The deliberate moves of the group to scuttle the operations in KIZ brought the plan to develop more than 60 million square meters in the zone in three phases to a standstill. Less than half of the planned project for first-phase area finished and came to a hiatus, to say nothing of the second and third-phase development.
The Lee group, not content with this, turned KIZ into a theatre of smear campaign and confrontation with the north.
The operations in KIZ have been put in a more serious crisis by the present conservative regime which has carried forward the vicious confrontation policy of the Lee regime.
Right after the appearance of the present regime, it totally blocked even the cooperation between north and south non-governmental organizations which had barely been kept afloat, desperately enforcing "sanctions" against the DPRK over its satellite launch for peaceful purposes and nuclear test for self-defence. From February last it strictly controlled the entry of goods into KIZ. It worked hard to turn KIZ into a theatre of confrontation with the north. It seriously hurt the dignity of the DPRK, describing KIZ "a source of money" and "source of food" of the north
Right after Kim Kwan Jin was allowed to stay in the office as puppet minister of Defence, he desperately worked to reduce KIZ to a hotbed of war, escalating with increased frenzy the moves for a war against the north together with the U.S.
Timed to coincide with this, the military gangsters committed such hideous provocation as working out a plan for precision strikes at the monuments to the leaders, symbolic of the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK, in Pyongyang and other cities of the DPRK.
Kim Pyong Gwan, designated as minister of Defense when the cabinet was in the making in south Korea, a spokesman for the Ministry of Defence and other gangsters let loose a spate of invectives daring hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK such as "fall of the north's regime", "its change" and "its collapse."
Even the chief of Chongwadae cried out for "change", openly slandering the DPRK over its social system, economy and people's living. She went the lengths of seriously insulting the DPRK, jabbering that the "north would get nothing through nuclear development and provocation" and "the north can expect nothing unless it dismantles its nuclear weapons".
Needless to say, KIZ can hardly exist amid such unprecedented mayhem of confrontation.
The conservative group is now becoming vociferous about "normalization of operations in KIZ" and "dialogue". It is doing so not because of any concern for the minor south Korean enterprises or any wish to bring about a turn in the phase. But it is nothing but a crafty ploy to evade the blame for the crisis in KIZ and justify the moves for confrontation and war.
The puppet group can never evade its responsibility for the present grave situation in KIZ. If the group keeps vilifying the important step taken by the DPRK in a bid to pass the buck for the crisis to it, the situation will reach a more uncontrollable phase.

Dear ZeroC team,
I was wondering what your opinion is on Javascript support in ZeroC. With the increasing adoption rate of Javascript on the server, I see JS as the ideal language to make ICE a true internet communication platform.
With the new HTML5 websocket feature becoming widely available in IE, Chrome and Firefox, ICE could play a critical role in creating and powering next generation internet applications:
By supporting JS on top of websocket, ZeroC could support the following architectures:
- HTML5 client (JS and websocket) talking to any ICE server. JS code would be generated based on Slice definition.
- ICE server implemented in JS on top of node.js. By supporting JS on the server, ICE servers could easily and quickly be written in JS. The ubiquitousness of JS would help the market penetration of ZeroC.
Any feedback would be appreciated

These three systems work together and allow you to quickly and accurately sense and respond to your environment. When one system provides incorrect information "dizziness" and poor balance follow.
Imbalance and Falls
Every year, more than one third of all people over 65 will fall. Among older adults (those 65 or older), falls are the leading cause of injury death. They are also the most common cause of nonfatal injuries and hospital admissions for trauma.
Many people who fall, even if they are not injured, develop a fear of falling. Frequently they will limit their activity and/or start using canes/walkers. This can lead to a loss of independence and further disability. This can lead to greater weakness and more falls.

D.C. heat looks to break next week
Sick of the 90 and 100 degree days in the D.C. area? You'll only need to endure it for a few more days, which brings a little comfort after 8 consecutive days of temperatures of 95 degrees or more.
- D.C. has been baking under hot and steamy temperatures for a week. Photo: ABC 7
You may not believe this statistic after the incredibly hot summers the D.C. area has seen over the past few years, but this stretch of 8 days in a row with temperatures of 95 degrees or higher has only happened three other times since 1871. The last time it occurred was back in August of 2002. There has also never been a stretch of more than 8 days in a row at 95 degrees or higher, a feat that will be accomplished tomorrow and extended to 10 or 11 days this weekend.
High temperatures look to extend through the weekend with a forecast high near 100 degrees today and tomorrow, and over 100 degrees Saturday. Saturday may approach some record temperatures with 102 as the record at Reagan and 101 at BWI Marshall and Dulles airports.
- Region of HOT 850mb temperatures
I wanted to show the 850mb temperatures as there will be a pattern shift over the next couple of days. Temperatures shown on Saturday will be around 20 degrees C or higher at 850mb. Translated down to the surface, high temperatures Saturday could reach over 100 degrees without a problem.
Check out the next image, which I imagine you will like a bit more. Temperatures at 850mb on Tuesday will only reach around 12 degrees C, which translated down to the surface dry adiabatically only puts the D.C. area in the lower 80s. This is all based on a forecast and as we are a little more on the conservative side, we're going with temperatures in the mid 80s as of now.
- 850mb temperatures on Tuesday
This pattern shift will occur as a cold front pushes into the region on Sunday. High pressure over the Plains will ensure a northerly flow across the eastern part of the United States, making for a continued supply of cooler temperatures in D.C. The main forecast problem for next week will be the location of the frontal boundary, as it could linger across the D.C. area for days. If this happens, much needed rainfall could also be in the forecast next week. At this point this rainfall may fall mainly be south of D.C.
Either way, the end is near for this record breaking heat wave. As Adam Caskey put it this morning, it's time for everyone to break out their parka's! At this point, I wish Adam...I wish.

Volleyball Adds Matt Fishman To Coaching Staff
Feb. 12, 2014
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Head volleyball coach Sherry Dunbar has announced the addition of Matt Fishman to her coaching staff. Fishman will serve as a volunteer coach for the Hoosiers and will help with scouting reports, IU Volleyball camps and assist with practice plans throughout the year.
"We are excited to welcome Matt to the Hoosier family," said Dunbar. "I love the preparation he has taken to ready himself to break into coaching at this level. He has put himself in a great position to learn as much as possible in his time here and help continue to build this program."
"To have the opportunity to join such an amazing program and university is one that I struggle to put into words," said Fishman. "As the son of two Hoosier Alums, the drive to earn my stripes runs deep. I'm looking forward to being able to help build upon such a great tradition."
Fishman, a native of Carmel, Ind. most recently comes from Bishop Chatard High School as an assistant coach of the varsity volleyball program where he helped lead his squad to a 2012 3A State Championship and the school's first 2013 4A Regional title. From 2010-2013, Fishman coached the Indy Junior Volleyball Club and operated as media relations director, web master, assistant recruiting and tournament coordinator and set up and produced live stream events. Fishman was also an assistant coach for the varsity team out of North Central High School while overseeing the junior varsity program as head coach through the 2009-12 seasons.
The Bowling Green State University graduate also brings experience running various camps and clinics, including involvement with KIVA (Kentucky-Indiana Volleyball Academy) Elite Camps from 2009-12. From 2009-11, he provided instruction at the Butler University Junior Bulldog and Nike Elite camps led by current Butler head volleyball coach, Sharon Clark.
Fishman's involvement with the sport of volleyball has occurred off the court as well. He served as the Content Management System Director for the Junior Volleyball Association. Under that title, Fishman developed JVA Dig In Applications and Mini Tournament Apps used by club teams around the country.
A native of Carmel, Ind., Fishman not only has familiarity with the role as coach, but he also brings experience as a player. Fishman was a three-year volleyball letter winner at Carmel High School and was also a member of the Bowling Green State University Club Team.

Rosario, Orb try to make it 2-for-2 in Preakness with an eye on the Triple Crown
On Friday at Pimlico, Rosario warmed up for the Preakness by riding the Bob Baffert-trained Fiftyshadesofhay to a huge win in the Grade II, $500,000 Black-Eyed Susan Stakes for owners Mike Pegram, Karl Watson and Paul Weitman. He ended the day winning the $100,000 Hilltop Stakes aboard Emotional Kitten.
When Rosario left Orb to win that $10 million paycheck in Dubai, jockey John Velazquez took his place on Orb and won the Fountain of Youth and the Florida Derby. But Velazquez opted for Verrazano over Orb in the Kentucky Derby.
"We traded $1 million (Florida Derby purse) for $10 million," Anderson said. "There is a lot of luck involved in this game. That was a super lucky situation for us."
Baffert, who will send lightly raced Govenor Charlie in the Preakness, thinks highly of Rosario, but he said the young Dominican can be, well, a bit unpredictable.
"He's a really talented rider," Baffert said. "But sometimes he'll do something kind of wacky. He'll make a move and you just scratch your head and wonder what he was thinking. But you can't get mad at him. He's sort of a silly guy. But when you throw him on a horse, his IQ goes up 100 points."
Craig Dado, executive vice president and chief marketing officer of Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, was elected to the board of directors of the National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA).

Bethlehem, Pa., April 6, 2011--The Small Cap Fund managed by two Moravian College students, members of the College's Amrhein Investment Club, had the best risk-adjusted performance among the colleges and university clubs competing at the Quinnipiac Global Asset Management Education (GAME) forum, held March 31-April 2 in Hamden, Conn. The event was attended by an international group of approximately 900 students and faculty members representing nearly 50 institutions of higher education, as well as leaders from the nation's financial services industry.
Moravian's Amrhein Small Cap Fund—managed by students Sharad KC '11 and Ekaterina Ponomareva '11—gained 45 percent in 2010, according to Linda Ravelle, associate professor of economics and business and the club's advisor. The GAME forum portfolio competition adjusts performance for risk associated with the portfolio stocks; Moravian was named the winner in the undergraduate growth fund category at an awards dinner held April 1.
"One reason our fund won was that we held Netflix last year—that was huge," commented Professor Ravelle, who has advised the club for 21 years. "But another very big reason for our students' success is that they use old-fashioned research. They invest in what they are familiar with—stocks like Netflix, Under Armour—and they tend to do very well because of that. Amrhein hasn't changed the way they do things much in its 49 years of existence. We still rely on research—what does the company do, what is their product, and do we like their financials."
Club members also presented an informational poster at the Quinippiac conference explaining the club's history and investment strategy. One of the oldest student investment clubs in the country, Moravian's Amrhein Investment Club began in 1962 with a $20,000 gift from Mr. and Mrs. Irving Amrhein. Since then, the fund has grown to more than $1.5 million in real money, all managed entirely by the club's student members. The club maintains four brokerage accounts: growth, balanced, income, and small cap. "One of the things that fascinated attendees was that all of our income goes back to the College to support the club and provide scholarships—it is not reinvested," said Ravelle.
The 30-member Amrhein club is open to students of all majors. "I believe this really sets us apart from other student investment clubs," said John Diener, Amrhein Club president and a business management major with concentration in marketing. "Our diversity allows us to put a variety of ideas into play, which helps us make important decisions." Club members gain knowledge of investment theory and practice, and take an active role in investment analysis and decision making as they become familiar with American and international companies.
In addition to the fund competition and poster session in which Moravian participated, the conference featured a variety of breakout sessions and workshops, followed by panels that explored career opportunities within the financial services industry.
Moravian College is a private, coeducational, selective liberal arts college located in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Tracing its founding to 1742, it is recognized as America's sixth-oldest college. Moravian partners with students to build a strong foundation for their future. Visit the College's Web site at www.moravian.edu.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. - Seven student-athletes from the University of New Hampshire were selected to the Atlantic 10 Football all-conference teams, the league announced Wednesday. Senior linebacker Brett Bashaw (Newburyport, Mass.) led the list with his selection to the All-Conference Defense First Team.
Classmate Eric Mitchell (Atco, N.J.) was the only other Wildcat named to a defensive team, as the defensive back earned Third Team honors. The offense featured sophomore running back Stephan Lewis (Coatesville, Pa.) and linemen Jason Ball (Londonderry, N.H.; junior), Ryan Ward (Niagara Falls, Ont.; senior) and Al Willis (Queens, N.Y.; senior) on the Second Team. Senior wide receiver Kamau Peterson (Windsor, Ont.) was voted to the Third Team.
The conference also announced that Villanova junior running back Brian Westbrook and Delaware senior linebacker Brian McKenna were named Atlantic 10 Football Conference Offensive and Defensive Player of the Year, respectively. Rich Musinski of William & Mary was voted Rookie of the Year and Richmond's Jim Reid captured Coach of the Year honors.
Bashaw led the team in unassisted tackles (63), assisted tackles (64), total tackles (127) and tackles-for-loss (18). He ranked third in the conference at 11.5 tackles per game. With 297 career tackles, Bashaw is tied for third (with Romande Carter, 1993-96) on UNH's all-time list.
Mitchell tied for the team lead in interceptions with three and averaged 14.3 yards per return. He finished second to Bashaw in tackles with 86, including 39 solo tackles.
Lewis, despite missing the last two games due to injury, led the 'Cats with 953 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns (nine rushing). He compiled 515 receiving yards for a total of 1,468 all-purpose yards. A Gold Helmet and conference Player of the Week selection Oct. 30, Lewis ranked third in the Atlantic 10 with 105.9 rushing yards per game; he was second in both all-purpose yards (163.1 per game) and scoring (8.7).
Lewis had Ball, Ward and Willis to credit for his success. The trio anchored an offensive line that propelled UNH to a No. 5 conference ranking in both rushing and passing.
Peterson led the Wildcats in both receptions (53) and receiving yards (733) and was third in touchdowns (six). His 53 receptions is the program's sixth-best single-season total. Peterson averaged 13.8 yards per catch and 73.3 yards per game. His 12-catch, 180-yard performance against Delaware helped New Hampshire upset the second-ranked Fightin' Blue Hens.
UNH, ranked as high as 23rd in the nation, finished the season at 6-5 overall and 4-4 in the Atlantic 10.

Daniella Patrick, a BS Mechanical Engineering and MS Mathematics student at NYU-Poly, is a dedicated STEM education leader. She started working with the Center for K12 STEM Education in 2011. Her creative and enthusiastic personality combined with her passion for encouraging K12 students to pursue STEM education have influenced many of the Center's programs. She has worked directly with students at local partner schools, PAVE Academy and the Urban Assembly Institute (UAI) of Math and Science for Young Women, and on campus with the curriculum development of Science of Smart Cities (SoSC) and with the launch of Applied Research Innovations in Science and Engineering (ARISE).
At PAVE Academy, Daniella leads the after-school robotics club, where a group of 10 scholars from 4th to 6th grade are competing for the 2014 First Lego League championship. She is thrilled to be part of the team and said, "To be honest this project might be the most fun I ever had at a job. Getting to see the joy and excitement these students get from LEGO and simple robotics reminds me how I was when I was their age and why I chose a career in Engineering – to build and make cool stuff!" Sometimes it is challenging to explain technical terms in simple ways, but the "A-ha!" moments always come, and Daniella often witnesses her students having fun. "For instance, when the room gets very quiet all of a sudden, I realize they are focusing deeply on building something with their LEGO pieces."
At UAI, Daniella meets weekly with 16 high school juniors and seniors who are preparing for Regents math exams and taking pre-Calculus courses. In addition to math coaching, Daniella is involved with guiding her students with the college search and application process. She enjoys supporting the students as they gain comfort with math concepts and problems. She reflected, "When I first sat down with these students, many of them told me "I hate Math," and now I hear encouraging statements such as "I love when it makes sense." This makes me hope that by the end of the year they will no longer fear the subject and hope to pass the class, but feel confident tackling Mathematical problems, and who knows – maybe even enjoy it!"
Daniella has worked with a range of students from 4th through 12th grade. Her students come from diverse backgrounds in terms of religion, socioeconomic background, origin, and race. They are a hard-working and determined bunch. Daniella described, "I can honestly say I've only had the pleasure of working with students that either have an intrinsic passion for learning or an intrinsic drive to
learn in order to succeed in life. This makes my work all the more rewarding because I help give these students the little push they need in order to reach their goals, be it to pass a class, win a competition, or be part of a STEM program such as ARISE or SoSC. The students in return not only meet these goals, but often excel in them due to their intrinsic motivation and drive for success."

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By James Swift, campaignlive.co.uk, Friday, 05 April 2013 10:26AM
The Hackney Fashion Hub is a joint project between Hackney Council and the Manhattan Loft Corporation, the property developer behind the St Pancras Apartments at the restored Renaissance Hotel.
It aims to transform Morning Lane and Chatham place – two streets in E9 – into a vibrant shopping centre.
Albion was picked to handle the area's branding and communications following a full creative pitch, and is now negotiating its contract with the client.
It is not known how many agencies pitched for the work, but Mother Design was also known to be looking at the brief until recently. Hackney Council had specified that the agency that worked the brief should be local to east London.
One industry source told Campaign that the brief was worth around £100,000, although a spokeswoman for Albion said details on costs have not yet been finalised but that it was "a long term relationship that will include a number of projects".
As part of the regeneration development, Manhattan Loft Corporation will soon submit plans to erect two buildings – over five and eight floors respectively – as retail space on Morning Lane. The £100m development will create 6,200 square metres of retail space for fashion stores, restaurants and design studios.
The buildings will replace temporary structures that have already been created by Manhattan Loft Corporation and Chatham Works, which currently house stores from the fashion brands Pringle and Aquascutum.
Jason Goodman, the chief executive of Albion said: "Hackney has been our home for over 10 years and any regeneration to the area that will help it flourish is a great thing to be involved with.
"Our eco-system is all about start-ups, so helping to create a destination for budding fashion stars to kick-start their career alongside iconic brands is something we are very passionate about."

The Sports Network
DATE & TIME: Saturday, Nov. 3, 2 p.m. (et)
FACTS & STATS: Site: Joan C. Edwards Stadium (38,019) -- Huntington, West Virginia. Television: None. Home Record: Memphis 1-3, Marshall 1-3. Away Record: Memphis 0-4, Marshall 2-2. Neutral Record: Memphis 0-0, Marshall 0-0. Conference Record: Memphis 1-3, Marshall 2-2. Series Record: Marshall leads, 5-2.
GAME NOTES: The Marshall Thundering Herd are set to host the Memphis Tigers for a must win Conference USA contest at Joan C. Edwards Stadium this weekend.
This will be just the eighth meeting between these programs on the gridiron. Marshall has won five of the previous seven encounters. The Thundering Herd's 23-22 win over the Tigers at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium in 2011 was their fourth straight win in the series. These schools will no longer be conference rivals next season when Memphis departs for the Big East.
The Tigers were defeated for the third time in a row last week as SMU completed a 44-13 rout of them in the Lone Star State. Coach Justin Fuente's first-year at the helm of the program has been hard to watch. Memphis has just one win in eight tries this season. Over the last four games the Tigers have mustered only 51 combined points. Memphis is not making the jump to the BCS Conference world at an ideal time as it has just four wins total over the last three seasons, including two seasons of just a single victory.
Marshall's chances of winning the C-USA Championship this season all but disintegrated in front of its home crowd last week when UCF handed the Thundering Herd a 54-17 blowout loss at Joan C. Edwards Stadium. The win improved the first place Knights to 4-0 in league play and dropped MU to 3-5 overall and 2-2 in C-USA. With only four games left to play and the Knights holding a three-game advantage due to tie-breaker rules, coach Doc Holliday and his team simply have to win games. Holliday's team needs to win three of their last four to become bowl eligible. After a 1-3 October record, MU has a chance to start the final month of its regular season off against a weak Memphis squad which has some major issues on the offensive side of the ball.
The Tigers' offensive struggles have hindered their chances throughout the course of the season. Memphis has managed 286.5 yards and 17.5 points per game. Those are both the lowest marks in C-USA. Memphis was held to only 202 yards by SMU, which entered its bout with the Tigers surrendering 430.4 yards to opponents per contest.
Memphis is a run-first offense that relies on a stable of backs to move the ball. Jai Steib has taken on the bulk of the responsibility with a team-high 67 carries for 241 yards. Steib has replaced Jerell Rhodes (224 yards) who left the team for personal reasons earlier in the season. Brandon Hayes and Carol Harris have both rushed the ball more than 30 times this season as well.
Jacob Karam has been under center in the Tigers' passing attack, which ranks dead last in the conference. Karam has thrown for 1,146 yards, while completing a solid 60.2 percent of his passes with six touchdowns to two interceptions. Karam is an ideal game manager, but the Tigers need a playmaker at this point.
The passing game is reliant on the efforts of receivers Keiwone Malone and Marcus Rucker. Malone has caught a team-high 37 passes for 384 yards and two scores, while Rucker has 31 catches for a team-high 388 yards and a three TDs. Alan Cross made a pair of catches for 35 yards last week.
The Tigers' defense is coming off a terrible showing in which it allowed SMU to pick up 487 yards and score five offensive TDs. The only opponent Memphis managed to hold under 350 yards of total offense was the Rice Owls (221), which is the only team it has defeated. The Tigers' opposition is averaging 33.6 ppg.
Charles Harris is the team-leader in tackles with 58. Martin Ifedi (9.5 tackles for loss, seven sacks), Tank Jakes (6.5 tackles for loss), and Johnnie Farms (six tackles for loss) have been effective in stopping opposing ball carriers in the backfield.
Marshall had been stampeding offensively this season before it ran into the stingy UCF Knights, who held it to a season-low of 364 yards of total offense. The Herd's previous lowest achieved total of yards was 491 in their loss to Ohio University. Despite the off-week, Marshall is still ranked fifth out of 120 FBS teams in total offense (542.9 ypg) and second in passing offense (378.5 ypg).
The Herd operate from a spread attack with its leader, Rakeem Cato under center. Cato has already surpassed his freshman year totals by throwing for 2,949 yards and 23 touchdowns this season. The sophomore QB is completing 68.3 percent of his passes and has only thrown seven interceptions.
Although he was not even expected to be the best wideout on his own team, Tommy Shuler is leading the C-USA in receiving yards per game (92.1) and is second in the FBS with 9.6 receptions per contest. The sophomore wideout is 14 catches away from tying the school's FBS record for receptions in a single season which was set by Darius Watts in 1991. Shuler is not the only MU wideout among the conference's receiving leaders. Aaron Dobson (614 yards, 52 rec.) is seventh and Antavious Wilson (541, 45 rec.) is seventh.
While the trio of wideouts have the most yards through the air, tight end Gator Hoskins has pulled in a team-best eight touchdown catches.
MU employs a three-headed rushing attack made up of new faces. Steward Butler, Kevin Grooms, and Remi Watson have shared the ball carrying duties. Grooms has amassed a team-high 456 yards on 75 carries.
Defensively, Holliday's squad looked like it was heading in the direction after it held Tulsa to 340 yards and Southern Miss to 329 in back-to-back games. The Herd are back at square one after allowing UCF to rack up 568 yards and six offensive TDs.
The special teams unit has to make some adjustments as well after allowing UCF WR Quincy McDuffie to become the first player in C-USA history to return to two kickoffs back for touchdowns in a single game.
Marshall has the second worst scoring defense in the FBS with an allowed average of 43.1 ppg. Dominick LeGrande is pacing the defense with 84 total stops, which is the 11th most in the FBS.
As any coach would, Holliday has made changes to the lineup on the defensive side of the ball. Sophomore linebacker Deon Meadows made the most of his increased playing time by tallying a career-high seven tackles, forcing and recovering a fumble, and blocking an extra point against UCF. Juniors Billy Mitchell and Derrick Thomas each made their first career INT against the Knights as well.
The Thundering Herd can only blame themselves if they lose this one. Marshall's offense should be able to bounce back and its defense should be able to weather the Tigers' attack.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Marshall 45, Memphis 20
