Me too. Omaha has a Triple-A team (the Storm Chasers) and they play in a really cool park, but it's still too far away for me to go more than a couple of times a month.
At least I have the satisfaction of knowing that my own parents appear on Eric Hosmer's rookie card.

Hey, i've got someone for all the pedo's around here, i know there are a lot. Someone just posted some CP on youtube; I'm sure it will get deleted soon, so download it while it's still up.
My anus is bleeding
nobody would dare post cp on youtube..thats almost asking for the fbi to track u down. im pretty sure its either rickroll or duckroll
Duckroll will always be > Rickroll. Oh and, it's very funny to post CP TO the fbi right out of their juristiction. Also, a good, high anonymity proxy server can also be funny, but make sure it's either a cluster (alters packages so they could have come from any computer comming or going to or from proxy), or that you can somehow modify all the packages in and outgoing...
Duckroll is gay, GTFO.
MECHANIC Chris Donald loves his work — he has sex with CARS.
And he admitted last night: "Some men like boobs and bums, but I much prefer curvy bodywork."
Chris, 38, has a recognised psychological condition that makes him physically attracted to motors.
He has had sex with more than 30 different models in 20 years — plus two motorboats and a pal's JETSKI.
Chris, who DOES have a girlfriend, confessed: "A nice car for me is a feast for the senses. It's about smells, feelings and tastes. If I see a gorgeous Mercedes I know I'd love to jump into bed with it."

Update....2 (16/07/12)
We were supposed to be collected at 1100 this morning to go to the bonded warehouse to get our bikes. This bacame 1230 and finally 1415 before we went anywhere.
Once at the depot, our paperwork from the airport (was done by Yerzhan before we left airside) was collected and we had to wait to be given permission to enter the bonded side. This finally happened after 1600. The container was still sealed, good so far, and was unsealed in our presence.
It didn´t take long for the unloading to get underway....
2 workers then started to open the crates. At this time, we were told to keep back as it was their job. Later on, however, when they realised that the bikes were not ready to go (wheels out etc) they started to panic as the warehouse closed at 6!
This is Andries with his KTM......it actually started :-)
Finally, by box came out....last!
We than had a mad rush to get the bikes back on their feet, batteries connected, screens replaced etc etc....the usual stuff after shipping. It was really hot and there was not one of us who was not filthy and soaked in sweat.
My bike, almost done. Started first time
Group shot of the yard just before we had to wheel them all out of the bonded side as it was 1800....The guy in Red is Nick, a school teacher from Devon.
There was a group shot taken before we left....by Yerzhan. I hope to get a copy from him and will post when I can. Everyone else was just too tired and desperate to get on their way....me included.
After a couple of miss understandings between me and my satnav......and hitting rush hour traffic, I arrived in the Ainabulak 1 micro district where the Sarayshik hotel is located. Well, what a find.....through booking.com. This is like a mini leasure resort with swimming pool and outdoor restaurant, with its own parking AND many of the staff speak reasonable English. Its about €54 per night including breakfast, use of the facilities and interet (slow). Its not the cheapest available in Almaty, but is is not even close to the price of many hotels. Oh, I forgot the most important thing for me.....secure parking AND Aircon in my room. Happy chap
Reception followed by pool area. Latter photo taken from a lovely seated area where internet is available.
While doin this update, I heard from another Dutch Rider who didn´t arrive with the group, he rode here via Finland and Russia. He had problems with his police registration as he was over the 5 days allowed. He has been fined 20.000 tenge.....about €105-110. He won´t get his passport till today so had to stay another night in Almaty.
He joined me for dinner last night and has checked out of his hotel (Reunion) and is staying here tonight. I feel a few beers about to be poured

HSBC "lift" by Grey London

By Alex Brownsell, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Tuesday, 26 February 2013 08:00AM
Olympic heptathlon gold medallist Ennis became the latest sports star to sign up to represent Santander last week. She is its first female ambassador, joining world number one golfer McIlroy and Formula One driver Button.
The Spanish bank has launched an above-the-line campaign featuring the trio to promote its 1-2-3 current account and credit-card product, which offers customers cashback on everyday spending. The campaign is being devised by agencies Havas Worldwide London and Engine Group.
Ennis was signed by the brand to replace long-time ambassador Lewis Hamilton, who left F1 team McLaren Mercedes, which Santander sponsors, to join rival team Mercedes F1.
Hamilton first appeared in an ad for Abbey, prior to its rebrand to Santander, in 2007. Button has been used by the bank in its marketing material since 2010.Follow @alex_brownsell

I once head an interesting story about how one local church pastor, on the occasion of All Souls Day Nov. 2, invited parishioners to gather in the church cemetery for a blessing of graves.
Each person was asked to stand by a grave and a few minutes later, with people standing by the graves of relatives, friends and perhaps complete strangers, parishioners remembered the dead.
Many white people avoid neighborhoods where the residents are predominantly black. Many black people know to avoid certain white neighborhoods.
Racism has not disappeared from America, and isn't likely to for a very long time.
So we were not surprised to learn that a news analyst for National Public Radio said, "when I get on a plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous."

"The Social Network," also known as "The Facebook Movie," seemed like a joke when I first heard about it. OK, a popular Web site that seemingly everyone uses is getting its own movie. Sounds like a gimmick. Then I read that Aaron Sorkin was writing it and David Fincher was directing it. How quickly gimmick turns into entertaining art.

I recently received an e-mail message from several people I consider friends and whose opinions and intelligence I respect. I disagreed with its content, however, and had some responses I wanted to share. Their message is the bold text and my responses are in plain text.
Thought you might like to read this letter to the editor of a British national newspaper. Ever notice how some people just seem to know how to write a letter?
As Election Day draws near, candidates for local races will be stepping up their efforts to win your votes.

I watched a woman last Monday night, who I guessed to be in her 70s, sit down before a meal of two small hamburgers and fries. Before she dug into her supper, she offered a silent prayer and made the sign of the cross.
Her simple gesture reminded me that we all too often forget to give thanks for what we enjoy every day, whether it's our health, family, friends or the food that sustains us.
A recent Associated Press article about Indiana's new law requiring everyone, regardless of age, to show a photo identification when buying carryout alcohol included good news and bad news.
The good news is AP quoted several Indiana legislators who say they are ready to revamp the law, which took effect July 1.
Legislators and liquor store workers told the AP they've heard many complaints.

By R. Jai Krishna of Dow Jones Newswires

Villa Santai was better than expected. The location was close to some small shops and a quick drive from central Ubud. The property was amazing and in near perfect condition. It was the attention to the small details that really impressed, laundry detergent, coffee, tea, butter, cooking oil, eggs, fruit and bread were all provided which was so nice!
Steve was very quick in responding to my messages and made me feel like I had all the necessary support as needed. The next time I'm in the area I will definitely consider Villa Santai again.
Villa Santai - according to the locals translates to "Villa of relaxation". The description is spot on! What an amazing place. Beautifully laid out, well equipped and a good location. We ate at Rondji restaurant which is a 5 min stroll from the villa and was blown away by this experience too. I have nothing negative to say about this pristinely kept villa, we wished we had stayed longer! Magic.
Can't rate this place highly enough! The villa is stunningly beautiful, the pool was a god send and wonderful to laze by. House was kept wonderfully clean and tidy and there are plenty of DVDs and games to keep you entertained. There are also Aussie plug converters. Location wise, it's about a 30 min stroll into central Ubud which is easily done and it's actually nice to be staying in a slightly quieter neighbourhood which is equally beautiful to explore. Fully recommend Villa Santai.
Santai nella lingua indonesiana significa relax. Il nome di questa villa non poteva essere più calzante ... una fresca e silenziosa oasi chiusa tra pareti bianche adornate di piante, un piccolo giardino con una bella piscina limpidissima, una raccolta e piccola ombrata area per meditazione, yoga, leggere un libro ... in un piacevole e tipico contesto balinese di ville vicine a piccole risaie. Villa recentemente inaugurata, ampia, spaziosa, funzionalmente ed elegantemente arredata. Nonostante sia dotata di aria condizionata è talmente fresca che non abbiamo dovuto accenderla per più di qualche minuto prima di andare a letto la sera. Il proprietario é stato gentilissimo sin dalla fase di prenotazione e sempre disponibile al bisogno ... abbiamo avuto un piccolo problema all' arrivo in piena notte a cui ha generosamente rimediato. Di deliziose colazioni, pulizie e giardinaggio si occupa un discretissimo ed amorevole ragazzo nelle cui mani vi farà piacere lasciare la villa quando uscirete per visitare ubud (10 minuti a piedi o 3 in taxi con costo contenuto) o l' intera isola, perché Ubud é in posizione strategica. La consiglio vivamente come base per esplorare Bali avendo sempre la certezza che alla sera vi aspetta la vostra fresca isola di relax ...
It was a great villa to spend holiday with family!!! The villa is completely equipped with board games and pool balloons so you wont get bored. If you bring your own car, you have to park it in front of path way to the villa. The villa keeper is very helpful as well and he serves breakfast. Overall, i love staying there and would recommend it to colleagues! Thank you

About the Host, Steve
Ubud is my favourite home, but I love visiting Thailand, Sri Lanka and Paris. I am addicted to travel and want to see a lot more of Europe and Asia.
My passion is writing. I have contribute to 4 books about Bali and am currently working on my first gay romance novel.

It's more fun when you play together.....
I have been lucky in life and am now looking to add excitement and fun with a special person. I am a fun loving woman who looks for the positive in everything, and I fully believe that laughter truly is the best medicine. However, that said, I do know when and where to be serious and respect that trait in others as well. I enjoy a wide range of activities from your stereotypical walk on the beach to something more offbeat like visiting vineyards and listening to live music on a patio somewhere. Generally I consider myself to be very open to new experiences and am willing to try a variety of activities. I think fun comes from who you are with rather than what you are doing. Good company can make what would have been a mundane experience a great time. I look forward to seeing what the future will bring with the right person. About You: If you like to have fun and consider yourself to be spontaneous yet are also responsible and mature we would definitely have a great time. You love kids. You have a strong belief/relationship with God. You're ultimately looking to build a meaningful relationship. Good conversation, laughter, and company would be a great start. I think it's fantastic if your idea of fun is cuddling on the couch with a movie, relaxing together, an occasional night on the town dressed up for no reason, going to a shooting range, bowling, shooting pool, a spontaneous weekend getaway, or visiting a vineyard for an afternoon of wine tasting and conversation. If it sounds like we have enough interests in common, drop me a line and perhaps we can get together for a beverage of sorts...

Local hot spots: Stonewerks, BJs, La Hacienda; Travel destinations: I enjoyed NY, NM, and CA, Austria and Italy; I love to stay at B&Bs vs. hotels and hope to visit VT, ME area and Vineyards in CA one day as well as Greece, Ireland, and Scotland.
The University of Texas at San Antonio, San Antonio, TX
I like alternative rock, pop, country, classic rock, and some of the good ole' songs like "Brown Eyed Girl". I love Sushi, Thai, Chinese, Greek, German, and Italian food. I like unique places and will try almost anything.
I enjoy time with my kids; I love walking/running/hiking/yoga; I very much enjoy baking (mostly coffee cakes, cheesecakes, and any types of cookies/bars/breads); Live music, Dives, hole in the walls, wine tastings/vineyards, and day trips.
I'm impressed with those who have time to read. I'm lucky to get through a magazine or 2 a month.

Klippkroog looks exactly like an upscale café you'd see popping up somewhere like Northcote or Clifton Hill or Surry Hills or the like. It's airy and clean, full of kitsch and retro decorations, and serves coffee. (We never said it was rocket science.)
This place though, has a couple of differences. One is that it's in Hamburg – a city that doesn't quite have the reputation that its buddy Berlin has – and the other is that it's not just a coffee and muffin type establishment.
While you can certainly enjoy a coffee and some great breakfasts (with a lot of the produce locally sourced) this place also serves dinners that include treats like dumplings.
The third surprise is that this place serves only vegetarian and vegan food. (Maybe that shouldn't be such a surprise, but we have this image of Germans eating a lot of meat, you know?)
Klippkroog is at GroBe BergstraBe 255, 22767 Hamburg.

Happy Birthday to me! Hopefully the Bruins can win this on my birthday. Pretty pumped for the game tonight, especially since my girlfriend got me a Tuukka Rask jersey and gave it to me just now I SO wish I could really enjoy this game and drink but I have a Calc III test tomorrow
Anyways, I'm really hoping the Bruins can build off their win from Saturday in Toronto. Besides the final 5 minutes or so, the Bruins played a very, very strong game, defensively as well for the most part, which was good to see in the first game without Chara. That was a perfect game to build up some momentum and I would like to see that carry over to this game.
I have a feeling Soderberg is going to have a big night...he's has looked great so far to start the season and he's finding his touch. I also think we'll see some more from Gagne who has not looked bad at all. Of course, though the defense is going to be key as it will be while we are without Chara. As young as Dougie is he has enough experience by now to where he can step up in a big way...I want to continue to see that.

A dozen years after a customer revolt forced Monsanto to ditch its genetically engineered potato, an Idaho company aims to resurrect high-tech spuds.
Idaho spud giant bets on biotech potatoes
This month, tuber processing giant J.R. Simplot Co. asked the U.S. government to approve five varieties of biotech potatoes. They're engineered not to develop ugly black bruises. McDonald's, which gets many of its fries from Simplot, rejects those. They're also designed to have less of a natural but potentially cancer-causing neurotoxin, acrylamide.
Much has changed in 12 years, according to the Boise-based company.
Unlike transgenic varieties Monsanto commercialized in the 1990s using genes from synthetic bacteria to kill insect pests, Simplot's new "Innate"-brand potatoes use only potato genes.
Haven Baker, Simplot's Yale- and Harvard University-trained vice-president of plant sciences, said his scientists journeyed inside the vegetable's genome to "silence" unwanted attributes, while making sure it remained 100 percent potato.
"You'll never get as much beneficial effect from traditional plant breeding," he said. "And it'll take twice as long."
Those in the industry remember Monsanto's ill-fated foray and say Simplot's major challenge in avoiding a similar fate is ensuring its product is acceptable among growers, processors and, ultimately, people eating it.
"Unless your customers are prepared to embrace this product, it's not going to be successful," said Frank Muir, president of the Idaho Potato Commission that represents Idaho's $3 billion industry. His group, whose website currently boasts Idaho potatoes aren't genetically engineered, hasn't weighed in on Simplot's endeavor.
But Muir does think the company is making the right moves: Reaching out to the industry, as well as consumers who may eventually buy Innate potatoes as big, un-bruised bakers or golden fries. "They're taking all the appropriate steps."
As the USDA and Food and Drug Administration embark on vetting Simplot's potatoes, the agencies are nearing completion of a similar review of a genetically engineered apple created by a Canadian company, Okanagan Specialty Fruits, to resist browning when cut.
The apple industry has opposed Okanagan's "Arctic" apple, on grounds it could create marketing headaches for growers of unmodified apples. Christian Schlect, the Northwest Horticultural Council president, said he hopes the potatoes go to market first.
"We'd just as soon the potato people take the initial foray on marketing this technology, and we'll follow their experience," he said.
In fact, the two products, should they win the government's blessing, could hit customers about the same time, 2015 or 2016.
Baker said with Simplot's new potatoes, growers would earn more money with less wastage from bruising, something that can affect up to 5 percent of their harvest. Additionally, the spuds are designed to produce acrylamide levels so low they skirt California's strict, voter-mandated cancer labels on french fries and potato chips, he said.
McDonald's didn't return a call seeking comment about the tubers. A big Simplot processing rival, ConAgra, says its potatoes are not genetically engineered.
Twelve years on, St. Louis-based Monsanto remains tight lipped about jettisoning its "New Leaf" potatoes — engineered, among other things, to kill Colorado potato beetles. That was a business decision "not influenced by any negative reaction to genetically-modified organisms," spokeswoman Carly Scaduto said.

It seems as though the Obama Justice Department, headed by Attorney General Eric Holder, is getting a bit nervous the Supreme Court of the United States may rule in favor of Arizona over anti-illegal immigration law SB 1070. The DOJ is urging justices not to take up the case:
The Justice Department on Thursday urged the Supreme Court to stay out of a lawsuit involving Arizona's immigration law, saying lower courts properly blocked tough provisions targeting illegal immigrants.
The state law is a challenge to federal policy and is designed to establish Arizona's own immigration policy, the department's solicitor general said in a filing with the justices. Arizona says the law is an effort to cooperate with the federal government.
One provision requires that police, while enforcing other laws, question a person's immigration status if officers suspect they are in the country illegally. In April, a three-judge panel of the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals in San Francisco upheld a federal judge's ruling halting enforcement of that and other key provisions in the Arizona law.
Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer is seeking to overturn the judge's decision and wants Supreme Court review of the case, arguing that the issues are of compelling, nationwide importance.
The Justice Department disagreed.
"That several states have recently adopted new laws in this important area is not a sufficient reason for this court to grant review" of the first appeals court decision affirming a judge's preliminary ruling against part of one of those state laws, Justice told the high court.
On Tuesday, Holder boasted about his efforts to sue states trying to get their illegal immigration problem under control during testimony on Capitol Hill.

Where is it from?
- A Place & Date Depicted Melbourne, Australia
- A Photographer Melbourne, Australia
Photograph - Interior, National Museum of Victoria, circa 1871 Reg. No: SH 950097
- Summary:
- A framed sepia photograph of the interior of the National Museum of Victoria located at Melbourne University taken by Charles Nettleton, circa 1871.
This photograph is part of a small group of five photographs and one glass negative taken by Charles Nettleton during 1870 - 1895. They feature views of significant Melbourne buildings and interiors including the Treasury Building, the Old Museum, and the (Royal) Exhibition Building. The small collection is significant as it provides a visual record of Melbourne's early development, and also reveals the work of an important local photographer.
Charles Nettleton was a prolific outdoor photographer who worked over a period of forty years in Australia, after moving to Melbourne from the United Kingdom in 1854. He became well known for his photographic expertise and in 1858, opened his own studio. In 1867, he was appointed official Royal photographer in Australia and he also worked as the official police photographer for over 25 years in the 1860s - 1880s. His photographs were exhibited at international exhibitions in Dublin in 1865, Paris in 1867 and Sydney in 1879. Nettleton retired in 1890, as new dry plate photographic technology made the wet place process he employed redundant. His photographs are held by major institutions around Australia.
- Description:
- The photo is mounted on card which has yellowed with age and is framed in an ornate, gold coloured frame The glass from the frame is missing. The photo is backed with brown paper, most of which is missing and is hung with wire secured on either side of the frame with a screw-ring.
- Description Of Content:
- A framed sepia photograph of the interior of the National Museum of Victoria located at Melbourne University taken by Charles Nettleton, circa 1871. The photo shows many cabinets and displays of animals, bones and artefacts along the two levels of the hall.

Carbonate veins reveal chemistry of ancient seawaterFebruary 5th, 2010 in Earth / Earth Sciences
Calcium carbonate veins are common in upper ocean crust, where they precipitate from low temperature (<100 C) seawater-derived hydrothermal fluids that have reacted with the basaltic lavas that form the ocean floor. These fluids are modified by chemical exchange with the ocean crust as they heat up. The veins precipitate from the basement fluid at compositions that have evolved away from that of the initial seawater, but from analyses of suites of these veins the chemistry of seawater at that time can be estimated. Credit: Christopher Smith-Duque (NOCS)
The chemical composition of our oceans is not constant but has varied significantly over geological time. In a study published this week in Science, researchers describe a novel method for reconstructing past ocean chemistry using calcium carbonate veins that precipitate from seawater-derived fluids in rocks beneath the seafloor. The research was led by scientists from the University of Southampton's School of Ocean and Earth Science (SOES) hosted at the National Oceanography Centre, Southampton (NOCS).
"Records of ancient seawater chemistry allow us to unravel past changes in climate, plate tectonics and evolution of life in the oceans. These processes affect ocean chemistry and have shaped our planet over millions of years," said Dr Rosalind Coggon, formerly of NOCS now at Imperial College London.
"Reconstructing past ocean chemistry remains a major challenge for Earth scientists, but small calcium carbonate veins formed from warm seawater when it reacts with basalts from the oceanic crust provide a unique opportunity to develop such records," added co-author Professor Damon Teagle from SOES.
Calcium carbonate veins record the chemical evolution of seawater as it flows through the ocean crust and reacts with the rock. The composition of past seawater can therefore be determined from suites of calcium carbonate veins that precipitated millions of years ago in ancient ocean crust.
The researchers reconstructed records of the ratios of strontium to calcium (Sr/Ca) and magnesium to calcium (Mg/Ca) over the last 170 million years. To do this, they analysed calcium carbonate veins from basaltic rocks recovered by several decades of scientific deep-ocean drilling by the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) and its predecessors.
"The carbonate veins indicate that both the Sr/Ca and Mg/Ca ratios of seawater were significantly lower than at present prior to about 25 million years ago. We attribute the increases in seawater Sr/Ca and Mg/Ca since then to the long-term effects of decreased seafloor volcanism and the consequent reduction in chemical exchange between seawater and the ocean crust," said Professor Teagle.

machine services in Greenbay for drive shaft repairs?
Gents, my r1200 GSA tossed a forward u-joint recently. I've got a lead on Machine services in Greenbay, seems they replace the u-joints with Servicable ones for a decent price. Would certainly appreciate hearing from anyone here that knows first hand if they are good at what thy do or not. I know about Bruno in Canada, but would rather stay with a US company if possible.
I just read this.....
.....it may help.
Thanks, sending to Bruno. Never heard anything bad about his work.
The interesting thing about Jim Moore's experience with the Green Bay outfit is that after the GB refurbished driveshaft failed, his post says he replaced the front half with an extra unit he had laying around. That unit also failed 10,000 miles later. Something seems amiss here.
At this point, I would not blame an outfit that has been doing driveline repairs since the early 1950s, in Wisconsin, no less.
Remember, there are a bunch of smart Germans in Wisconsin who not only make fine cheese and sausage, but have been running successful businesses dealing with mechanical systems. Briggs & Stratton, Kohler and Allen-Bradley come to mind.
And, while I believe Bruno is probably a fine fellow, I would speak to the Green Bay outfit and ask them what happened to the failed shaft before discounting them offhand.
Good points... There certainly is a price difference between the two. I'm just looking for the best fix as I don't relish the idea of another drive shaft explosion on a major trip. Really sucks I can tell you.
Well Cap't Dan, I agree...a breakdown on a trip is more than inconvenient.
I just cannot imagine that the Green Bay outfit did a poor job of repair on the BMW driveshaft. We just don't know enough to make an educated guess.
If it were me, I would call them and explain your concerns and point them to the post dealing with the driveshaft failure.
If I ever need driveshaft repairs, I'll be speaking with them before I decide which repair shop to use.
I'll bet they would like to see the failed shaft and determine the mode of failure.
Here is what I would ask:
1- Do they offer a warranty on their work? What is the source for the parts they use?
2- Are there any particular challenges to performing a reliable repair on these BMW shafts?
3- Do they repair the shock rubber portion of the shaft assembly?
4- How do they balance the shaft after repairs?
These are all good questions that they should be willing to answer.
I cannot speak for their ability to repair/rebuild/remanufacture motorcycle driveshafts but I have used them for years to make driveline gear for my engine testing business, from less than 5HP to over 16,000 HP and have never had an issue, their engineering department is top notch. Having said that, I really do not believe these shafts would be their forte, what they CAN do is harmonically balance anything in relation to speed and engine configuration, it is a true science.
drive shaft
They did mine, about 1k on it so far. Mine didn't come apart, so no damage. Happy with what I got back. It was 225 or 250 to replace both joints. I think all they do is drive train service. I would use them again. Look at their web site that convinced me. When you call them ask for Mitch ( shop forman, I think). He knew exactly what I was talking about. Took 5 days round trip.
Jim, Did they machine the driveshaft to accept circlips or weld washers over the caps? Also, did you grease the u joints before you installed the driveshaft? I'm assuming the joint failed, or was their a problem with the yoke?
Machine Services in Greenbay. Is there web address and phone number a secret and you can't post it. Googled it and found all kinds of stuff.
Is this them: http://www.machineservice.com/techni...joint-failure/
Customer Service: 1-800-677-8711
14k on my rebuilt from Machine Services with no issues.

Geo Replacement Clutch Cylinder
With its thoughtful design, a Geo does have a pleasant drive along with its well-known durable construction. Avoiding major wrecks is facilitated with the correct safety devices. As a consequence of the hydraulic force, just a little force in your vehicle's master braking cylinder can result in a great deal of pressure in the Slave Cylinder. A Slave Cylinder is an essential element of a vehicle's braking system.
In an automotive braking system when pressure is applied to your master cylinder, the energy is transmitted the Slave Cylinder. In the braking system when you apply pressure to the system's master cylinder, that force is sent through the Slave Cylinder. A malfunctioning Slave Cylinder will degrade your braking force, and produce a safety hazard. A malfunctioning Slave Cylinder has the potential to weaken your braking capacity, and produce a safety hazard. Because of the hydraulic action, only a small amount of force in the vehicle's master cylinder results in a lot of reciprocal force in the Slave Cylinder.

text: michigan supreme court Inkster judge placed on paid suspension, script to be flipped By Mark Brush, Sarah Hulett & Rick Pluta • Dec 16, 2011 screen grab from City of Inkster website Last April, Inskster District Court Judge Sylvia James was placed on administrative leave with pay after city officials leveled charges of financial mismanagement against her. As Michigan Radio's Sarah Alvarez reported, James "could not explain why court funds were used to pay for travel, clothing, and other expenses." Another judge took her place, and the State Supreme Court started looking into the charges. Michigan Supreme Court to hear case on MSU harrassment policy By Rick Pluta • Dec 8, 2011 The Michigan Supreme Court will decide whether Michigan State University can continue to enforce its rule against harassing its employees as they do their jobs. Jared Rapp confronted and yelled at a university employee in an MSU parking garage after he found a ticket on his car. The employee felt threatened and called the campus police. The employee sat in his car waiting for the police to arrive while Rapp hovered outside the vehicle and snapped pictures with his mobile phone. Rapp was charged with a misdemeanor and was later convicted of violating a university rule against interfering with MSU employees. A judge reversed the conviction. He said the rule is so vague it would be hard for a reasonable person to know if they broke the rule. The rule has been upheld by the state Court of Appeals, though, and the prosecutor hopes the Michigan Supreme Court will do the same. Court will hear exchange student discrimination case By Rick Pluta • Dec 8, 2011 The Michigan Supreme Court has ordered a lower court to decide whether the Michigan High School Athletic Association discriminated against a former exchange student from South Korea. The MHSAA said he was only eligible to play one year of high school football and denied him permission to be a member of the Hudson High School varsity team. The rule is meant to stop schools from recruiting exchange students to build championship teams. The state Department of Civil Rights sued the high school athletic association for discrimination based on race and national origin. *Correction - an earlier version of this story stated the Michigan Supreme Court agreed to hear the case. The text and title have been corrected in this version. Computer glitch leads to challenge before Michigan Supreme Court By Rick Pluta & Steve Carmody • Dec 5, 2011 Joe Gratz / flickr The Michigan Supreme Court will hear a case tomorrow where an African-American man claims he was denied a fair trial because of a computer error. The error caused fewer jury notices to go to households in African-American neighborhoods. Ramon Bryant is challenging his convictions on charges of criminal sexual conduct, stealing $90, and possession of marijuana. Bryant says he was denied a trial before a jury of his peers that is guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment. The question is whether the unintentional exclusion of African-Americans from the jury pool entitles Bryant to a new trial with a new jury. A computer error caused fewer jury notices to be sent to ZIP codes in Kent County with higher minority populations. Bradley Hall is with the Criminal Defense Attorneys of Michigan. He says the law requires juries be a "fair cross-section" of the community. "Excluding of a minority population from jury service does not create a fair and reasonable representation of the community," said Hall. ""So it sort of happened by happenstance but there's no question it's systematic." The prosecutor argues the mistake was accidental, and that there are other explanations as to why so few African Americans reported for jury duty. Michigan's Attorney General says Bryant's conviction should stand. The AG's office contends the jury chosen made its decision based on the evidence. Governor, Legislature need to find $60 million to balance budget By Rick Pluta • Nov 21, 2011 When the Legislature returns to the state Capitol next week, there will be another item added to its to-do list. That is: coming up with millions of dollars to fill a budget gap created by the state Supreme Court decision on Michigan's new pension tax. The court upheld the tax on pensions, but said denying a tax break to some higher-earners effectively created a graduated income tax. A graduated income tax is not allowed under the state constitution. That part of the decision also blew a $60 million hole in the state budget. Sixty million dollars is a small part of a general fund budget that exceeds $8 billion. But it is an amount the governor and the Legislature will need to make up to meet their obligation under the state constitution to have a balanced budget. One possibility would be to use a projected surplus from last year's budget to fill the gap. That number becomes official in January. But it appears the surplus will be somewhere near $400 million. Lawmakers are already fighting over what to do with that money. Democrats say it should be used to restore some budget cuts to schools. Republicans say it should go into the state's "rainy day" savings fund, or to pay down debt. Michigan Supreme Court won't intervene in $100M deal with Prisoners By The Associated Press • Nov 11, 2011 user: abay / flickr.com LANSING, Mich. (AP) - The Michigan Supreme Court has declined to intervene in a dispute over a $100 million settlement with former and current female prisoners who claimed they were sexually harassed behind bars Oakland County wants the women's names so victims of their crimes can also be paid. While that dispute is pending, the county wants the state to suspend payments. Michigan Legislature considering changes to workers comp By Laura Weber • Nov 9, 2011 Republicans in the state Legislature want to change Michigan's workers compensation law. They say the changes would help Michigan businesses by reducing what business owners pay in insurance premiums. Democrats say the changes would also reduce the amount of money given to many injured workers. Michael Czinski was hurt on the job as a police officer a few years ago. He broke his wrist in a fall and damaged an artery that supplied blood to the area. Three surgeries later, he has limited use of his right hand. Michigan Supreme Court to hear arguments in foreclosure case By Steve Carmody • Nov 9, 2011 Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio On Thursday, the Michigan Supreme Court will hear arguments in a case that could affect a large number of home foreclosures. The Court of Appeals ruled that mortgage lenders should not have used a national industry agency to file the foreclosures. The lower court found the Mortgage Electronic Registration System, or MERS, had no standing to file the foreclosure paperwork. "Anytime you're going to take the fast track on foreclosing and take another person's property…you need to be able to do it correctly…and right ….and legitimately," sais Lorray Brown, an attorney with the Michigan Poverty Law Program. Michigan Supreme Court wants more before taking on emergency manager case By Rick Pluta • Nov 3, 2011 Michigan Supreme Court The state Supreme Court said it wants more information before it responds to Governor Rick Snyder's request for a speedy ruling on whether Michigan's new emergency manager law is constitutional. Governor Rick Snyder took the unusual step of asking the state Supreme Court to take the case without waiting for lower courts to rule first. The lawsuit was filed on behalf of a group of voters from several cities who say the emergency manager law violates separation of powers and their right to self-government. The law made it easier for the state to appoint emergency managers, and dramatically expanded their authority over the local governments they are supposed to fix. The Supreme Court gave both sides until mid-December to file arguments on why the justices should circumvent the usual path of a lawsuit through the appeals process, and why they should win in the end. There is also a petition drive underway to call a referendum challenge to the emergency manager law. Increased spending in state high court races, Michigan tops the list By Mark Brush • Oct 27, 2011 A report by the Brennan Center for Justice, the National Institute on Money in State Politics, and the Justice at State Campaign says the outside money being spent in state high court races amounts to a "hostile takeover of judicial elections." The authors of the report, the New Politics of Judicial Elections 2009-2010, wrote that $16.8 million was spent on television advertising for state high court elections in the 2009-10 election cycle — "making 2009-10 the costliest non-presidential election cycle for TV spending in judicial elections." According to the report, more television campaign ads for state high court elections ran in Michigan than in any other state during the 2010 election cycle. 10,781 ads ran in Michigan. That total accounts for 29 percent of the total state high court campaign ads to run across the country. And for total money spent on these campaigns, Michigan is at the top. From the report: Michigan, ranked sixth in candidate fundraising, surges to No. 1 when all sources of money, including independent TV ads, are considered. The Top Ten states by total spending on state high court elections, 2009-2010: Michigan Supreme Court says Scott recall election will not be cancelled or postponed By Steve Carmody • Oct 26, 2011 Rep. Paul Scott's official website The Michigan Supreme Court says it will not stop or postpone a recall election targeting a state lawmaker. Today's decision clears the way for the November 8 vote. Republican Paul Scott (R-Grand Blanc) has spent much of the past month trying to convince the courts to stop next month's recall election. With less than two weeks to go before the November 8 vote, the Michigan Supreme Court appears to have had the final word on Scott's request and that word is 'no'. Scott's been arguing that there was a problem with the way recall petition signatures were collected and that there's been so much confusion around whether the vote would take place, that it would be better to cancel or postpone the recall election. But in its order, the state supreme court expresses the hope that "officials charged with administering the election in Genesee County will ensure the fullest participation in the electoral process of all citizens." The Michigan Education Association is behind the Scott recall campaign, targeting Scott for his support for cuts in state education spending and anti-union legislation. Republican recall target wants to move election to February's GOP presidential primary By Steve Carmody • Oct 25, 2011 Rep. Paul Scott's official website We may hear as early as today whether a recall election targeting a state Republican lawmaker will be rescheduled from next month to next year. State Representative Paul Scott asked the Michigan Supreme Court to order a vote on recalling him from office moved from November 8th to next February. Next month's recall has been bouncing around the courts this month as Scott has tried to get the entire recall election cancelled. A judge did issue a temporary injunction stopping the vote only to be overruled by the Michigan Supreme Court. In its decision, the high court ruled that judge's order cancelling the November recall created 'practical problems', like what to do with absentee ballots that had already been mailed. Scott's attorney is now arguing that the Supreme Court's own ruling is adding to the confusion. The recall campaign says Scott only wants to reschedule the recall vote to February, so it can be held on the same ballot as the Republican presidential primary. A spokesman for state House Republicans insists the February date was only proposed since it's the next regularly scheduled election. Former Michigan Attorney General Frank Kelley: Speaking Frankly By Jack Lessenberry • Oct 18, 2011 Former Michigan Attorney General Frank Kelley issued more formal opinions about the constitutionality of various Michigan laws than any attorney general in history. Of course, that's partly because he served longer in the office than any attorney general in the history of this or any other state-- thirty-seven years. He was elected ten times, and retired before he had to. Now nearly eighty-seven, he is mostly cheerful, healthy, and enjoying life from his home on Lake Lansing. Justice will not remove himself from emergency manager challenge By Rick Pluta • Oct 8, 2011 (official court portrait) A state Supreme Court justice is refusing to remove himself from hearing a challenge to the Michigan's tough new local emergency manager law. Supreme Court Justice Steve Markman says he has no conflict of interest even though his wife worked on a challenge to the law in federal court. Kathleen Markman is an assistant state attorney general who did what was described as procedural work to defend the law against the federal court challenge. She has since been removed from the case. Screen at issue in state Supreme Court case By Rick Pluta • Oct 5, 2011 Joe Gratz / flickr The state Supreme Court will decide whether a man charged with sexually assaulting two children was denied a fair trial because one of the victims testified from behind a screen. The screen shielded her view of the defendant. But he could still see her. The defendant's attorney, Scott Grabel, says the screen made the jury more likely to believe his client was guilty: Michigan Supreme Court to hear challenge to sex offender's plea deal By Rick Pluta • Sep 22, 2011 The Michigan Supreme Court has agreed to decide whether a convicted child molester should be allowed to withdraw his guilty plea because he did not know it would subject him to a lifetime of electronic monitoring. The state Supreme Court is being asked to decide whether David M. Cole entered a "knowing, intelligent, and understanding" plea. Cole plead "no contest," which is essentially a guilty plea, to two counts of having sexual contact with a child younger than 13 when he was in his late 20s. His plea deal included an agreement that he would eligible for release from prison within five years. But Cole says that he was never told his conviction on second-degree criminal sexual conduct charges requires that he wear an electronic monitoring device for the rest of his life. Cole was denied permission to withdraw his plea to try and make a new deal. Prosecutors say their deal was only on prison time, everything else was not part of the negotiation. Michigan Supreme Court agrees to hear no-fault insurance cases By Rick Pluta • Sep 22, 2011 Michigan Supreme Court The Michigan Supreme Court has agreed to hear two cases on whether people who use a family vehicle without permission are covered by no-fault benefits if they are injured in a crash. In one case, Ryan DeYoung was excluded from his wife's insurance policy. In September of 2008, he got drunk, took his wife's car without permission and crashed the vehicle. The hospital and recovery center billed the insurance company, which denied the claim. The insurance company is challenging an appeals court ruling that says DeYoung was covered under "joyriding" clause that typically covers teen-aged drivers who take their parents' vehicles without permission. In a separate case, an insurer is challenging a ruling that Craig Smith Junior was covered for injuries he sustained when he crashed his father's SUV into a tree while driving drunk. Smith did not have a valid license, and had been told not to drive the vehicle. The insurance company tried to deny coverage because Smith broke the law when he took the wheel of his parent's car. Sentence in illegal immigrant case splits Michigan Supreme Court By The Associated Press • Sep 19, 2011 DETROIT (AP) - A robbery of illegal immigrants has exposed sharp differences at the Michigan Supreme Court. Chief Justice Robert Young Jr. broke with the court's conservative bloc and joined three liberal justices in letting a minimum five-year prison sentence stand last week. Jorge Ivan Torres-David pleaded guilty to armed robbery in 2009. A Wayne County judge added points to the sentencing formula after determining that Torres-David targeted illegal immigrants because he believed they would be reluctant to complain to police. Supreme Court Justice Marilyn Kelly agreed with the trial judge. She says illegal immigrants are "vulnerable victims" when criminals view them as "easy targets." Justice Stephen Markman calls the decision "remarkable." He and two other Republicans on the court say illegal immigrants now have greater protections as crime victims than law-abiding residents. The Michigan Supreme Court and the Pension Tax By Jack Lessenberry • Sep 8, 2011 The Michigan Supreme Court will soon issue an opinion on whether the new law taxing pensions is constitutional. If they say it is, it's full speed ahead for the governor's plan. If they decided that taxing pensions is not constitutional, it'll knock a huge hole in the budget. That means the state will have to get more revenue -- which means raising taxes. That, or roll back the business tax cuts or slash aid to education and other programs more severely than ever. And while I don't pretend to know exactly what would happen, I can tell you this, after talking to the governor last week. He isn't about to roll back the tax cuts, and he doesn't want to raise taxes. Fairness of pension tax will be decided by Michigan Supreme Court By Rick Pluta • Sep 2, 2011 user subterranean / wikimedia commons The Michigan Supreme Court has agreed to let unions and business groups weigh in before the justices rule on whether the state's new tax on pension income is legal. The court will hear arguments in the case next week. Governor Rick Snyder asked the court to cut short any legal challenges with a preemptive ruling. The governor wants an opinion from the court before the end of the month. His budget relies on $343 million dollars from taxing pensions, and he wants to avoid months or years of legal wrangling on the question. The governor asked the court to decide whether the pension tax breaks a promise by the state to retirees and public employees; and whether income limits in the law amount to a graduated income tax – which is prohibited by the state constitution. The Supreme Court has agreed to accept briefs from retiree associations and unions that oppose the pension tax, as well as business groups that say the tax is fair. The Michigan Education Association, the UAW, and the AARP are among the groups that filed briefs opposing the tax. They say the pension tax breaks a promise to retirees and public employees, and it violates the state constitution. Business groups, including the Michigan Bankers Association, and the Small Business Association of Michigan, are backing Governor Rick Snyder. They say the pension tax is fair because it treats all income equally in the tax code. If the pension tax is upheld, pension income will be subject to the state income tax starting January 1, 2012.
