We love our meetups so much, we find the need to meet twice a month! And for our second instalment, we move away from Vancouver and into the Burnaby/New West area.
Event is completely free and friendly for new members. We discuss everything from books to shoes. Yes, it's a varied evening full of laughter, conversation (sometimes heated) coffee, goodies and good company.
And remember, if you have registered books, bring them along for release!
Hope to see you there!
I might not be able to attend tonight. Will come if I can, of course - with books.

I decided to start Reno Motorcycle Riders Group because I wanted to be part of a group of people who enjoyed my passion... I was excited and nervous. Our group has grown by leaps and bounds. I never thought it would be this big.

Free and Easy

September 01, 2011 — Textures, literally and figuratively, add a layer of interest to any image and can be just the thing to take an okay photo to an oh-wow" photo. Texture can change not only the look of a photo, but also the feel—from dark and foreboding to light and happy and everything in between. Finding the right textures, however, can be time-consuming and costly, especially since there's no guarantee that any given texture will work with any of your photographs. There can be lots of trial and error involved in using textures (and as with any enhancement, they're best used in moderation), but the results—whether subtle or bold—are worth the additional time and effort.

With the increasing saturation of other channels, mobile
advertising has seen an emphatic rise in prominence over the last
few years, in line with the consolidation of the smartphone as an
integral part of modern daily life. The last couple of years have
seen an impressive increase in mobile advertising revenue as a
result of rising smartphone adoption alongside greater 3G and 4G
market penetration, and an increase in time spent by users on their
mobile devices. Although the market is dominated at present by a
handful of key players, the obvious potential for growth indicates
a prime opportunity for investors to dip into this exciting and
relatively young industry.

Does Stress Make You Fat (Continued)
Stress...fat...an endless cycle? It may be a classic catch-22, but how do we put the kibosh on the whole thing? (continued)
The researchers then experimented with blocking these specific fat-cell receptors or removing this receptor's gene from the abdominal fat cells. When they did this, the stressed mice on high-fat, high-sugar diets did not become obese. In addition to not getting as fat, they also did not suffer the metabolic changes linked to stress and diet, including glucose intolerance (prediabetes, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, etc.) and fatty liver — an accumulation of fat in the liver that is often associated with obesity and diabetes. The lead author of the published report called the effect of breaking this chain of molecular events "remarkable."
While the researchers talked about the ways in which these findings can be used by pharmaceutical companies to create drugs that interfere with these receptors, thereby reducing fat cells, it might be wiser to simply put some extra time and energy into addressing our culture's stress epidemic. We're always on the lookout for that magic pill that will mean we don't have to do the heavy lifting — that is, we won't have to change our unhealthy ways. Change is hard, but change can be good.
Stress Soothers
What are the best ways to manage and relieve stress? You've no doubt seen countless articles on relaxation techniques, exercise, yoga, and the like. Stress relief is big business in our stressed-out country, so you can find books, videos, websites, gadgets, and services galore that claim to melt away stress and anxiety. But what really works? Scientists want the answer to that question and have begun to study in earnest methods for relieving stress.

Letters to the Editor Spring 2001Politics or Polemics I was somewhat distressed at the political nature of both a letter to the editor and a primary article in the Winter 2000 issue of Tricycle. This political material is not what I subscribe to Tricycle for, and although I agree that where politics, religion and philosophy collide, it is perfectly reasonable for Tricycle to address relevant issues, my expectation is that when it comes to politics Tricycle should rise above polemics.

Letters To The Editor Spring 2004Chant or Cant?As a practitioner of Nichiren Buddhism with the Soka Gakkai, I have certainly come across articles and other writings on our organization. (I used to marvel at the fact that the SGI was rarely, if ever, mentioned in Tricycle and other Buddhist publications, considering its membership size and scope.) As Clark Strand points out in his article "Born in the USA: Racial Diversity in Soka Gakkai International" [Winter 2003], these publications have often maligned SGI. Strand has made an excellent and noteworthy effort in addressing this large oversight. Not only did I find Strand's writing to be clear and engaging, but his exploration of race within Buddhism, and particularly in the SGI, was rich and informed. More »
Letters to the Editor Winter 2003A Huxley Hoax?We've learned so much about Buddhism since Huxley was alive, I was surprised that Dana Sawyer simply reported Huxley's judgments about Buddhism without checking to see if they were still valid or not ["Aldous Huxley's Truth Beyond Tradition," Fall 2003]. Did Huxley really know enough about Theravada meditation or Pure Land devotionalism to make accurate judgments about them? In The Perennial Philosophy, did he really identify the subtext of all great spiritual traditions? Or did he simply cite writings that coincided with his own personal preferences? A glance at the first chapter of that book is enough to make you wonder if he really understood what the teaching on nonself was all about. It would be useful to have an article that accurately assessed these issues. More »
Letters to the EditorAUSPICIOUS BEGINNINGS The first issue of Tricycle was superb—a most auspicious beginning. I especially enjoyed Joel McCleary's fine tribute to Geshe Wangyal, Dean Rolston's moving "Memento Mori," and the delightfully unorthodox Spalding Gray interview with His Holiness the Dalai Lama. The quality of the writing was very high and was matched by a marriage of intelligence, wit, and deep feeling, all qualities much needed in the kind of times we now live in. The time has surely come for the years of practice by American Buddhists to bear fruit in a new activism to begin to create a decent, sane, and just society. NICK PEARSON Weston, Massachusetts More »

However, he misleads when he proposes that we think of Buddhism as a "basic pragmatism, rather than an adherence to some philosophical system," and Buddhist teachings as "skillful means for liberating the mind, rather than statements of absolute truth."More »

Fixer-Upper Sailboats
The Neglected boat you save may become your own
If you're looking for an affordable good old boat that needs major fixing up, you've come to the right place. We're looking for abandoned, deteriorated sailboats in need of a new dreamer to turn them into a dream boat once more. So if you know of one, get in touch! And if you're interested in one of those listed here, follow your heart and follow up. Call the number listed.
Have something to add? Contact us. There's no charge to list a fixer-upper. But you must be selling it for $5,000 or less. Please let us know when your boat goes to a good home and we'll remove the listing.
There's no fee for the buyer either. We just want to help you find the boat of your dreams.
Summer 2015
Cascade 27 Sloop
- Length: 27 feet
- Price: $3,500 (includes trailer)
- Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
- Phone: 253.722-7148
- Location: University Place (near Tacoma), WA
Hull and deck are sound. Engine and interior have extensive water damage. Improvements include: stainless steel handrails; stainless steel stern pulpit with boarding ladder; Shaeffer roller-furling jib; Lewmar offshore forward hatch; Airhead composting toilet; standing rigging replaced within the last 10 years, but has received little use; sails included.
Columbia 7.6
- Length: 25.1 feet
- Price: $3000.00 (Boat, Trailer and motor)
- Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
- Phone: 205-919-7801
- Location: Tuscaloosa Alabama 35401
Sailboat with dual axle trailer and 9.9Hp Motor.
This great boat was built in 1978. I purchased it a year ago as a restoration project. It had set in the previous owner's driveway for a couple of years and accumulated a large amount of dirt and debris. It has been mostly pressure washed but is in need of a complete cleaning inside and out.
Outside: The hull is in good shape but the clear coat is thin and I did find one small blister. All the metal rigging looks like it is there and everything looks good to be used on that front. The lines and sheets look decent but I would probably replace them. The mast and boom are also in fine shape.
There are no soft spots anywhere on the deck buy the companion way hatch is a little rough. The deck could use cleaning and I had planned to paint it.
Inside: The cabin is a mess. The line is falling down in areas and rain water sat cabin for a while before I cleaned it out. The wooden parts seem salvageable and I have to foam parts of the cushions for templates to make covers from. The cabin needs a good deodorizing also.
Trailer: The Trailer was custom made by Sail Trailers of Columbus Ga. It can be configured to accommodate many boats. The trailer is in great shape but has one broken light that I know of. The tires are like new but need air. The trailer was used to move the boat from Georgia by the previous owner and has been sitting ever since. It is a dual axle trailer with a telescoping tongue. It comes with s certificate of origin for a vehicle issued by the state of Georgia.
Motor: The Motor is a Honda 9.9 horse power Model BFP9.9Xrta. It has controls mounted in the cockpit. The motor has extremely low hours on it. I was told less than 16 total hours. It comes with the Certificate of Origin. It is extremely clean and looks virtually new.
Air conditioning: The boat has air conditioning installed that works off of shore power. I have not been able to verify that it works and I am sure that it needs servicing, like everything else on the boat. I do have a receipt for the unit from 2005. The parts alone cost 1700.00.
Sails: The boat comes with 5 sails. All appear to be in good condition. 1 main sail and 4 Jibs.
Sunbrella covers and a Bimini top: The Bimini Top is in great shape as are the rest of the Sunbrella Covers. One for the engine, Boom / Mainsail, Jib bag, and Bimini cover. (See photo)
Misc.: Keys, wench handle etc.
This Boat could be a wonderful boat once again and is a great bargain at $3000.00
Spring 2015
Columbia 25
- Length: 25 feet
- Price: FREE
- Email: email@example.com
- Phone: 401-749-6643 (Leila O'Connell)
- Location: North Kingstown, RI
It has not been in the water for the whole time my ex has had it, since 2006 or '07. He said he would have to take it apart & burn it, but is ok if someone wants it free. It's in the front yard in North Kingstown, RI, on the North end of the town.
Dufour "Dinette" sloop
- Length: 27 feet
- Price: $4,000 ($4500 with fiberglass sailing dinghy)
- Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
- Phone: 301-770-0385 (Jim Caskey)
- Location: Bodkin Creek, western shore of Chesapeake Bay
My GOB is a 1973 27' Dufour "Dinette" sloop; I am the second and sole owner since 1979. Except for actually hauling the boat out of the water, I've generally maintained her myself. I rebuilt the Volvo diesel engine and made numerous upgrades and innovations over the past 35 years of sailing her on the Chesapeake Bay and around the Eastern Shore. But age takes its toll on humans as well as boats, and she is in need of foredeck lamination repairs and work on the auxiliary (possibly repowering) as well as cosmetic attention. She comes well equipped (gear has age but is still serviceable) and ready to sail away after the aforementioned repairs.
Except for my wife of 31 years she has been the love of my life and I hate to part ways, but it's time for a new owner to take her on and restore her to her glory. She's a stable boat (rigged for single handing), points well, has sailed through numerous squalls. I'd be glad to introduce you and let you see for yourself what a great boat she is and can become again. Slip lease is up for renewal, so I'd like to sell her soon. I feel $4,000 is a very fair price for this French lady.
Ahoy, I am saddened to admit my GOB has slipped (pardon the pun) my attention over the past few years and become somewhat of a fix-it-upper in need of maintenance that is stretching my physical resources. Priorities have shifted and at 73 I'm not as nimble as I once was in being able to cram myself into the cockpit locker, lazarette or engine compartment. With sciatica and two torn rotator cuffs, hauling on halyards, sheets, and anchor rodes, not to say lifting cast iron engines, transmissions and other heavy equipment or hauling myself aloft, sailing and maintaining my GOB has become more of a chore and less of a joy.
1974 Clipper
- Length: ??
- Price: $ 800 or negotiate
- Email: email@example.com, Sharon Valenzuela
- Location: Fresno, CA.
1974 Clipper sail boat and a 1973 AM (trailer which has permanent tags on it). Have both titles. Willing to let them go at a very reasonable price.
The rigging is all there but no sail. No leaks anywhere but inside will need refinishing. It wasn't covered over this last winter. Need to move it right away. It was to be a project for my husband but his health will not permit it now.
Winter 2015
Jason 34
- Length: 34 feet
- Price: $5,000.00 OBO
- Phone: 727-417-3204 (Thomas)
- Location: in water Clearwater, Fl.
1983 Aluminum Ted Brewer design. New North Sails. Interior has mariner stove, Norcold Fridge, sink and head. Rest of interior needs finishing to your style. Farymann Diesel With 300 Hours.
Catalina 25
- Length: 25 feet
- Price: Make Offer
- Email: Mary Read email@example.com
- Phone: 330.328.5166
- Location: Cleveland, OH
I have a 1981 Catalina 25 Standard Rig Fixed Keel in a cradle in a Cleveland boatyard that is expressway adjacent. She has 1990 Evinrude 15 (just a carburetor different from a 9.9 but on sale at the time) Electric Start Long Shaft. She is a dinette interior with a marine head, screens, other cruising/storage options. The Main has 2 reefs, 150 Jib is roller furling, Spinnaker is radial head with double end pole, light and heavier air sheeting. All running and standing rigging has been replaced since original.
I know that ports have leaked and this needs work as does the engine. She has been wet but not sailed in about six seasons. I would like to find my boat a skipper to take her cruising again. She needs someone soon. Please contact for more details, equip list, etc.
Not as much interested in price as not having to pay for dockage again March 1.
Summer 2014
Catalina 25
- Length: 25 feet
- Price: $3,000 USD)
- Email: email@example.com (Ron Fisher)
- Location: Severna Park, MD
I have a 1979 Catalina 25 tall mast, swing keel sailboat on an E-Z Load trailer that I would like to part with. It's just a little too big for single sailing at my age. It is seaworthy, but the windows need new gaskets as several of them leak rainwater into the boat. The main has a dutchman flaking system for easy handling, and there are both a working jib and a genoa. The outboard will probably need work as well. It is an Evinrude 9.5hp that connects to controls in the cockpit. The main hatchway is a pop-top for standing clearance. Cushions are in good shape, but the dining table has split and needs to be repaired or replaced.
I bought it in 2007 for $4000.00 and put $800.00 into bringing the trailer up to standard to pass Maryland inspection. Since then, the boat has only been in the water part of one season, and has been transported no more than sixty miles. (In other words, it should still pass inspection.) I would be happy to get $3000.00 for it at this point.
Spring 2014
Islander 28
- Length: 28 feet
- Price: $5,000 USD
- Email: email@example.com (Don Hall)
- Location: Wilmington, NC
A good old boat of this heritage (another Islander 28 ) was featured in Good Old Boat Nov/Dec 2006 , issue 51, pgs. 9-12.
This Hull #19 has been on the hill almost 5 years. That's not good. Needs a new home and TLC. $12K invested in new Yanmar 18HP, 2cyl, diesel=10hrs run time. New shaft, PYI dripless seal and full reversing 3 blade Max-Prop. The expensive part is done. Someone needs to finish. Will sell motor, drive, prop for $5K with boat attached.

I have a 1979 Cal 25 that I'd like to sell. It needs bottom paint and has a diesel inboard engine that works. A link on the steering is missing so even though the engine works the boat will need to be towed. Basically a great boat that was a gift from my father. I haven't had the time or money to get it working properly but it has a lot of potential - even if just used for parts. Was clean and motored, sailed in 2008 but not since then - just docked in Deale waiting for some TLC. Please contact me to discuss.Back To Top

False hope, if you ask me. This is just another moisturiser, really. Like so many reviewers before me, I find the acrid smell disgusting. And it lingers long after application. It smells quite like cheap creme cleanser - and I mean the one used to clean bathroom sinks. Ugh! I've never experienced a moisturiser with such an objectionable fragrance. That aside, HIAJ is quite an intensive moisturiser and I wouldn't recommend it for oily skin. As for the grandiose claim that it regenerates the skin - I have seen no evidence of that. My skin is no better or worse since I started using Hope in a Jar.
** Update - 2 days later: it made me breakout in small but irritating pimples :-( **

I just had to give this a try! I was looking for any "skin regenerating" -type of lotions (since I'm no longer a young'un *sigh*) and bought this not really knowing how my sensitive, combination skin would handle it. I was mainly going by the wonderful reputation of the Philosophy brand. Here's my take on it:
This stuff was like a moisture surge on my skin! It helped the tops of my dry cheeks and "puffed out" the fine lines. A little goes a long, long way.
CONS (unfortunatley, cons outweigh the pros)
This stuff just did not sink into my skin. Sure, it made my cheeks nice and smooth but on the rest of my face, it just felt like it was sitting there. It was weird because my face wasn't shiny, but it felt like there was a layer of oil on it! I could not use this during the day because it felt so bad. I used it as a night cream, but....it smells so bad!!! I had to go to sleep with this awful stench filling my nostrils. I've worked in hospitals and research labs and nothing- nothing!- smells this bad.
Conclusions- Not worth it for me. Too heavy and icky feeling touse during the day, and too smelling and distressing to be used as a "comforting" night cream. It helped end my dry skin but there's other, better smelling, less greasy-feeling alternatives out there.

This product was way too moisturizing for my oily skin. However, the cream itself was nice. I liked it. The smell was different, its hard to describe, but I came to like it. It absorbed into my skin pretty quickly, and I like the light texture of it. Overall a good cream I think, but just not for me.

Okay, I bought this b/c I heard so much great stuff about this but oh noooo...this is NOT the product for me. I have extremely oily skin that's acne prone and it's pretty sensitive, so I used this sparingly. The first time I used it, it felt like it was burning my skin OFF. My eyes started watering and then I got a whiff of that acrid smell and I was seriously regretting my purchase! But I used it for about a week, and I noticed that right after I applied it night, my skin did look much healthier, clearer, and more radiant. But in the mornings, my skin was back to normal. And then after a week I started getting all this painful cystic acne pimples, so I gave it to my best friend. She was in love with it for about a week too, and then quickly fell out of it for the same reason. This was definitely not for me.

I have heard raves about this product for years, so I finally decided to try it. (Plus, my best friend loves it too, it's her "stand by" moisturizer." ) I opened the jar and my immediate thought was, "ew, that smells like frozen pizza!" I don't know what that smell it is, but it's gross. Anyway, I use it, and I like it the product a lot, but the smell is really horrible. I would have given it a 3 overall rating, but the smell knocks it down.

I didn't find this stuff greasy. In fact I'd be using it as my daily moisturizer if it didn't smell sooo sooo BAD. The smell makes me nauseous. It's almost like lavender mixed with a licorice scent. I will definitely not be using this! It's just too bad the smell is horrible because it's hard to find a moisturizer for my sensitive skin that doesn't make me break out!

This is a great moisturizer for my sometimes-dry skin.
I only use it at night or if I'm at home, though, because it is a bit heavy/greasy.
I don't wear it under makeup for that reason.
I used it on some sensitive sore patches on my nose and chin when I had a cold and it was quite soothing.
The smell doesn't bother me, but it is unusual.
The jar is really easy to get into - nothing will be wasted.

here is the one thing i don't like about this moisturizer: it is so NOT for all skin types despite what it claims on the packaging. besides the fact that i don't think a universally efficacious moisturizer exists (hence the miserable search for the perfect one, but i digress), the scheme worked on me & i was sucked in to buying it.
thing is, it worked great for about two months. my sister came to visit me at school, borrowed some, & then even bought her own. when i came home from school (where it was pretty dry), i started to break out all of a sudden. my skin continued to break out gradually more & HIAJ stopped performing. it couldn't handle my aggravated skin.
i switched to a moisturizer that was actually for my skin type (normal to dry) & my skin felt so much better. too bad b/c i'd finally gotten used to the smell, & i was on my second--also known as my last--tub.
the reason i did give this a 3 is b/c when it worked, it really worked. i should probably be more bitter, but when i was using this (for whatever reason, there are probably a lot), my skin was at its best.

Hope in a Jar and Purity Made Simple Review by daiwozoux3

Smoky, firm tannins, with black currant fruits, firmly dark, dry and tannic, with a solid structure.
A fabulous sleeper of the vintage, Chantegrive's 2010 is the best wine I have ever tasted from this estate, which has long made very good wines that represent terrific values. An equal part blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2010 exceeds all expectations. Notes of tobacco leaf, creme de cassis, barbecue smoke and loads of flesh, opulence and richness characterize this dense purple-colored wine, which is full-bodied and over-achieving. Drink it over the next decade. A major sleeper of the vintage.
Dark and winey, with lots of steeped currant and crushed blackberry fruit wrapped with tarry grip. A licorice root edge frames the finish, which stays fleshy and muscular. Very solid. Best from 2014 through 2022.
Ripe fruit with a hint of violets. Fragrant. Firm, quite dense but gentle. Drink 2017-2027.
Good dark red. Expressive, nuanced nose combines redcurrant, plum, cured tobacco, flowers and spices. Supple, sweet and spicy, with rather soft, inviting red fruit and dusty spice flavors accented by fresh herbs. Finishes with a good tannic spine and a light green quality. This already makes an attractive, nicely balanced drink.

As I've mentioned before, I love the Fourth of July. It is easily one of my top three days and weekends of the year. Which is why it's with a heavy heart that I address the tragic events of Saturday at noon. I'm talking of course about the stunning results out of Coney Island at the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest.
Taking nothing away from Matt Stonie, a worthy champion who went out and earned the Yellow Belt fair and square. But I was heartbroken watching him beat Joey Chestnut. Chestnut is an American institution. Arguably the greatest champion we've had in any sport of his generation. He's the Bill Russell of Competitive Eating. The Michael Phelps of processed meat byproducts. And watching him finally meet his match after all his of years of dominance since Takeru Kobayashi chickened out of the competition in 2010 must have been what it felt like to finally see Joe Louis get beaten.
Or to put it in terms of something I actually have seen, to me this is how I felt when Superman gave up his powers in "Superman II" and had to kneel before Zod. It crushes my soul to see an icon like him reduced to this lowly state.
On the positive side, I think Chestnut needed this. It's been too easy. He's had not worthy competition since Kobayashi. In the last few years he could go out to a nice big brunch on his way to Coney and still win going away. And I think without anyone pushing him, he lost his edge. He got skinny and lazy. Well now he has the Joker to his Batman. The Magic to his Bird. The Manning to his Brady. And I'm convinced he'll come back from this hungrier than ever before. And next year when Chestnut and Stonie are pushing each other to the 70-, 80-, dare I even dream the 100-hot dog mark, then we'll all be winners.

NY Post – Now they probably love the cops.
A group of flag-burning anti-NYPD protesters needed New York's Finest to save their skin from a gang of angry bikers who tried to pummel them in a Brooklyn park for setting Old Glory ablaze. …
The fiery stunt by a few dozen members of the group Disarm the Police led to a chaotic scene at about 8 p.m. in Fort Greene Park, when the activists enraged 40 members of the Hallowed Sons Motorcycle Club by roasting the flag on a tiny barbecue grill.
'They took off like little [expletives]," said one biker. 'They lit the [expletive] flag and took off running once they got slapped once or twice."
The anarchists had announced on social media that they had planned to burn the flag in protest of NYPD policies, drawing a large group of flag-waving counterprotesters, including the bikers. …
Thus, they started to roast the flag, but they didn't burn it for long. One of the bikers rushed forward in a fit of rage and kicked over the grill, sending embers flying. He then doused it as members of the pro-flag crowd chanted "USA! USA!"
The bikers then started trying to rough up the protesters — who were quickly saved by members of the same police force that they criticize.
The protesters were shielded by the cops and escorted out of the park.
"I served in the Marines," said counterprotester Brian Christopher, 23. "We defend this flag. We are ready to die for it. When I see people burning it and showing complete ignorance, it's very offensive."
I'm not a big one for condoning violence of any kind. Even if the violence is in opposition to something I detest, like setting fire to the symbol of everything I hold dear. And I know a lot of police and military defend torching the Stars and Stripes as one of the very freedoms they put their necks on the line for. So as a guy who makes a living shooting his mouth and his keyboard off, I'd like to be an absolutist when it comes to the whole freedom of speech part of a protest, even when it involves tossing Old Glory onto hot briquets.
But with a story like this, it's hard to get worked up over what Brian Christopher and the Hallowed Sons did here. After all, nothing quite says "free expression" like a biker's meaty fist to some scrawny anarchist's face. Historically speaking, threatening to give someone a mouthful of bloody Chiclets is sometimes the only rational response to dealing with jerkstores like Disarm the Police.
And besides, what kind of anarchists are these cowards anyway? Isn't occasionally getting punched out by angry, patriotic bikers the price of poker when you're into the whole anarchy thing? Isn't their whole philosophy based on self-policing and living by your own rules? It's a little hard to claim you embrace chaos and disorder when the first thing you do is ask those cops you want to disarm to protect you like you're hiding behind your mom's skirt.
So far be it for me to question the actions of Brian Christopher, USMC, for exercising his First Amendment right to scare some candy-ass, flag-burning, fake anarchists into exposing themselves for the cowards they are. When you slapped one of these frauds, you slapped them for all of America.

All-new video.The Leap Frogs jumped into the Boston Red Sox-Houston Astros game at Fenway Park over Independence Day weekend. Drop everything and watch it. Now. #redsox
Posted by U.S. Navy Parachute Team "The Leap Frogs" on Sunday, July 5, 2015
I grew up a mile or so from the now-closed South Weymouth Naval Air Station. And I can't tell you how many times my buddies and I would be playing touch football on a Sunday morning at Stella Terrell park while some guy our age would be zooming overhead in an F/A-18 Hornet. We'd be traipsing off to the bar to watch NFL football like losers while Top Gun would be breaking the sound barrier in a $40 million instrument of death and I don't think a week went by where one of us would point out that's his job. We'd all be a bunch of cubical monkeys living paycheck to paycheck, and someone a couple of thousand feet over our heads would be living an adventure every day.
Well, I have to admit, watching this video I have that same feeling. Watching the Navy's Leap Frogs touch down with pinpoint precision in the middle of Fenway Park doing stunts all the way down is a reminder that I spent Fourth of July weekend drinking beer and blowing out my knee in a backyard badminton game against a bunch of moms and kids.
Don't get me wrong; I like my life. It's just that every so often as a guy you have to take an assessment of how cool other guys are. And, if you're being honest, realize they're 10 times the person you are and, as Henry V put it, hold your manhood cheap whilst any of them speak.
So nice going, Leap Frogs. Watching you do this might be a blow to the ego of men everywhere. But on the country's birthday it's comforting to know we're in your capable hands. Just watch out for dangerous stuff. Like badminton.

1997 Dodge Ram Van 2500 Q&A
1997 Dodge Ram Van 2500 Question: what is cause of intermittent engine stall
engine acts as if it has fuel starvation, but only intermittently. sometimes it just struggles to stay runnig and not able to increase engine rpm with additional fuel pedal press. computer check ok, no instrument panel indicators or error codes given. recent spark plug change, fuel pump pressure steady at 50lbs. when it does stop engine if i start engine directly after failure it stops within 2 or 3 seconds. if i let it rest for 15 -20 minutes she runs beautifully for another few hours - hosacanuc
Answer 1
really need to check the Check Engine codes and then diagnose the problem, there are dozens of possible things it could be, as you have found out by trying different parts with little success. A simple code check is NOT a Diagnosis, you need to scan the real time data to see what is going wrong and when. http://repairpal.com/check-engine-light-diagnosis Here is an article we at RepairPal constructed to aid people in getting a performance/Check Engine Light problem serviced. - dandd

Geographic Range
Deepwater white coral has a vast geographic range, including the Atlantic coast of the southeastern United States, the Gulf of Mexico, the western Caribbean, and the New England seamounts. This species may be found along the coasts of Brazil and West Africa as well. Outside of the Atlantic Ocean, deepwater white coral may be found in the Mediterranean Sea and Pacific, Indian, and Southern Oceans (latitudinal range of approximately 56ºS-71ºN). The largest known reef is west of Røst Island in the Lofoten archipelago, Norway. ("Deep water corals", 2013; "The State of Deep Coral Ecosystems in the United States: 2007", 2007; Cairns, 1994; Fosså, et al., 2002; Hiscock, et al., 2005)

This species is a cold-water stony coral, preferring temperatures of 4-12º C. Deepwater white coral can be seen at depths ranging from 39-3000 m, but is most commonly found at depths of 200-1000 m. Sunlight does not reach to these depths; this species filters food from the water column, and therefore is most often found in areas with fast currents. While this coral requires a hard substrate for attachment, the specific type of substrate may vary, from small stones to man-made oil rigs. ("Deep water corals", 2013; "The State of Deep Coral Ecosystems in the United States: 2007", 2007; Davies, et al., 2008; Fosså, et al., 2002; Hiscock, et al., 2005)

Physical Description
This species is a cold-water coral that lives as a polyp throughout its entire lifespan. Bushy growths branch out and fuse together, forming colonies, known as reefs. Individual polyps are connected by their skeletons but have no internal connection to each other; individual skeletons may be up to 12 mm in diameter. Live growths cover dead coral in the center of a reef; reefs may be strongly calcified, with larger polyps, or delicate, with smaller polyps. Such variation may be a response to physical conditions, such as temperature differences. Because the morphology and size of the coral varies, reefs can be circular, dome-shaped, or elongated. The size of the colony is proportional to age in a given environment: the bigger the colony, the older the coral. The largest known intact reef is the Røst Reef, located off the coast of Norway; it is 40 km long by 3 km wide. Unlike corals found in warmer waters, deepwater white corals do not have any symbiotic algae (zooxanthellae). A Lophelia polyp may have up to 16 tentacles surrounding an opening which acts as the animal's mouth and anus; these tentacles may be seen extending from the reef structure. Polyps are yellowish, pink, or white in color and are translucent. ("Deep water corals", 2013; "The State of Deep Coral Ecosystems in the United States: 2007", 2007; Cohen, et al., 2006; Hiscock, et al., 2005; Peckett, 2003; Roberts and Wicks, 2013)

During sexual reproduction, polyps release oocytes into the water column, where they are fertilized. This species has a lecithotrophic larval stage; larvae undergo metamorphosis without consuming external food and do not have a mouth or other feeding structures. Although the duration of this larval stage is not known, it is thought that larvae grow for several weeks before settling and attaching to a substrate. Distribution is likely passive, based on water currents. Once settling, a polyp remains in that location for the rest of its life. In its sessile stage, the estimated annual growth rate of polyps is 30 mm. (Kempf and Hadfield, 1985; Morrison, et al., 2008; Pitcher, et al., 2007)

- indeterminate growth
There is no available information about the mating systems of this species in the literature; it is known, however, that all polyps in a given colony are the same sex and that gametes are released into the water column. ("Deep water corals", 2013)
- Mating System
- polygynandrous (promiscuous)
This species is dioecious, meaning that separate individuals are distinctly male or female. Polyps are broadcast spawners, releasing oocytes or sperm into the water column, where fertilization and development occur. Each polyp can produce approximately 3,000 oocytes/year, which are released in January and February. Oocytes are very small, only 140 µm in diameter on average. Asexual reproduction can also occur through fragmentation or budding. ("Deep water corals", 2013; "The State of Deep Coral Ecosystems in the United States: 2007", 2007; Pitcher, et al., 2007)

This species exhibits no parental care beyond the production of gametes. ("Deep water corals", 2013)
- Parental Investment
- no parental involvement
Live polyps grow on the skeletal remains of coral from previous generations. Polyps are thought to live no more than 20 years. As a whole, deepwater white coral reefs may exist for hundreds or even thousands of years. ("Deep water corals", 2013; "The State of Deep Coral Ecosystems in the United States: 2007", 2007; Hiscock, et al., 2005)
Larvae require a hard substrate in order to settle. After landing on and attaching to a hard substrate, they may can expand across areas of soft sediment. Polyps live together in large groups, creating reefs. Reefs develop through "thicket" and "coppice" stages, forming rings roughly 10-13 m in diameter. "Thicket" refers to a very dense population of overlapping corals, while "coppice" refers to the outgrowth of new corals from the remnants of the stump of an older coral. Boring organisms may attack the central older regions of cold-water corals, leaving a patch with outer living coral and an inner dead skeleton, creating a habitat that can support a diverse fauna. (Hiscock, et al., 2005; Le Goff-vitry, et al., 2004; Roberts, et al., 2003)
Home Range
The home range of individual polyps is limited to the spot in which they settle. ("Deep water corals", 2013; "The State of Deep Coral Ecosystems in the United States: 2007", 2007)
Communication and Perception
There is no information currently available in the literature regarding communication and perception in this species. In general, however, cnidarians possess a nervous system composed of noncentralized nerve nets, and they are usually capable of detecting tactile and chemical stimuli. (Brusca and Brusca, 2003)
Food Habits
Polyps may catch live prey, including zooplankton, calanoid copepods, and euphausiid crustaceans, by extending their tentacles. When touched by a tentacle, a prey item is injected with venom by its cnidocytes (stinging cells). This species is a generalist feeder, even known to consume particles from dead fishes or other animals. ("Deep water corals", 2013; Purser, et al., 2010; Roberts, et al., 2003)

There is no information regarding specific predators of this species reported in the literature; it is possible that any of the animals living within and around its reefs may consume polyps. ("Deep water corals", 2013)
Ecosystem Roles
This species' reefs sustain high levels of biodiversity. The corals create a three-dimensional habitat for fish and other organisms and increase the habitat complexity on the continental shelf, slope, and seamounts. Their hard surfaces act as an attachment point for many sessile organisms. Organisms that live in these cold-water coral habitats in the Sula Ridge, for example, include rockfish, saithe, and squat lobsters. Other typical members of ecosystems created by these reefs include polychaetes, echinoderms, bryozoans, and many demersal fishes. Cold-water coral habitats are also known to provide increased food availability, functioning as feeding, breeding, and nursery habitats for many kinds of fishes. The distribution of this species in the Faroe Islands increases breakage of internal tidal waves, which is thought to increase vertical nutrient flux, thereby increasing phytoplankton production. The waves also increase the food available to benthic feeders farther down the slope. (Costello, et al., 2005; Fosså, et al., 2002; Hiscock, et al., 2005; Roberts, et al., 2003; Sulak, et al., 2008)

Economic Importance for Humans: Positive
This species has a positive impact on the commercial fishing industry; without the habitat created by coral skeletons, many commercially fished species would not be as abundant. (Costello, et al., 2005; Le Goff-vitry, et al., 2004; Roberts, et al., 2003)
Economic Importance for Humans: Negative
There are no known negative effects of this species on humans.
Conservation Status
There are currently no measures in place to protect this species, nor is it considered endangered or threatened by any agency, although the potential for significant damage to seabeds by trawling activities is very high. These deep-water reefs had no protection in the United Kingdom until August 2003, when the Darwin Mounds received protection under a European Fisheries regulation disallowing the use of bottom trawls for commercial fishing. Since 2000, cold-water reefs in the Northeast Atlantic, particularly those in the Darwin Mounds (off the northwest coast of Scotland), have continued to be damaged by trawling, hydrocarbon exploration, and oil drilling. This species was listed under CITES Appendix II in 1990, but has not been listed more recently.

Reincarnation: TROAE Steam Greenlight!
Hey everyone.
Big news. We just launched the Steam Greenlight and could use the backers help to get it Greenlite. We launched the project yesterday, and we are about a quarter of the way to the top 100%. I'm not really sure what that means in terms of Steam, but it seems good right? I haven't dealt much with them in the past, so this will be a learning experience for me as well.
Please help us get up there to bring this project on step closer to finally becoming a reality.
Up vote here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=386235229
Linux people: Don't be alarmed the game specs aren't up yet for you. We are currently looking into that.
In other news:
I'll be in Houston, TX promoting the game and my art at http://www.comicpalooza.com/. If you are in the area and are going to the con, please stop by the booth and say hi. You can also yell at me for how long TROAE is taking but then I'll just be sad all weekend.
Also, a fellow artist has a kickstarter that is about to end for her doll creation. You can back the project here if you are interested: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/331251583/skitzo-the-1920s-killer-bear-plush-toy-project

Eco Touch interior detailing products use plant-based surfactants instead of harsh chemicals to provide their superior cleaning action. You can throw away your rubber gloves when using any Eco Touch products. Artificial perfumes? Never. Essential oils provide a small amount of fragrance, not a cloying, coverup scent. Their Odor Eliminator uses an emulsifier often used in cosmetics as a masking agent rather than a chemical oxidizer to disperse odors. Their leather treatment uses coconut-derived esters and glycerin to feed your leather seats instead of lanolin or mineral oils.
Two principles guided Eco Touch when developing their exterior car care product lineup. The first is that the products had to be at least as effective as their competitors while remaining earth-friendly. They accomplished that by using coconut or citrus-based surfactants and solvents, not petroleum-based ones. Their tire dressing is an example; its plant-based formulation won't leach conditioning oils out of the sidewalls and turn the sidewalls of your tires brown. At the same time, it clings better to the tires and won't sling off onto the body the first time you hit 4th gear.
The other overriding concern at Eco Touch is to reduce the amount of water needed to maintain your car. They've pioneered the use of Waterless car wash, a product that lets you wash your car without using any water whatsoever: far less than the 100+ gallons needed to wash it yourself in the drive with a hose and a bucket. Far less than the 45+ gallons needed to wash it at a commercial car wash. Their Wheel Cleaner, also based on biodegradable surfactants instead of acids or solvents, lets you clean brake pad dust and road grime off your wheels without using any water at all.
It works pretty good.
