The Journal Sentinel education reporters offer news and notes from their beat
$18 million GE grant to help train Milwaukee teachers
A set of common, national standards for education that Wisconsin and 45 other states are on board to adopt have gotten a financial boost from the GE Foundation. »Read Full Blog Post

It's nice that GE is using all those tax breaks for noble purposes. MPS sure can use a lot of help!Hide replies
MPS is beyond help!
I'm not going to bash teachers here, but aren't all of them supposed to have an undergrad degree and time spent in the classroom as an "apprentice" so to speak, before taking the reins of a classroom on their own? Some even have Master's degrees and have several days a year for conferences and in-service. What is an $18 mil grant going to do to help improve MPS that isn't already being done. If an artist is creating a statue while using mud instead of clay, what is the result? Perhaps the grant should be spent on parenting classes for those who have students in MPS.Hide replies
Big Geoff Your comment makes too much sense.It is sad that these kids do not have parents who know how to tutor their kids at home .Real education begins at home.I teach on the northside and I usually have one parent show up for parent-teacher confernece.I wish every so-called education leader would read your post and then follow through with real change. Good Job, Big Geoff!
Sometime after June 1978 (moved in town from the farm in Wales, bought a house in Wauwatosa primarily for the school system) and before the blizzard Feb 10th,1981, down to 88 lbs with the 3rd case of pneumonia in those few years ~ Babe the cat, my 3 children, and I boarded the last flight out of Mitchell Field for Tucson, Arizona ~ my tutoring ceased. Sometime during that time period Wauwatosa School System implemented the New Math. (Where 2 plus 2 doesn't necessarily equal 4.)
It's about 15 years now, since Tommy Thompson's much lauded W-2 (Welfare to Work?) program replaced AFDC, effectively removing any remaining parent/tutor from the home to work at going nowhere makeshift jobs for subsidized minimal wages (I presume) and placing any child or children older than 3 months of age in the hands of very expensive daycare centers, many riddled with fraud. Makes me tired to even think about how a custodial parent must have managed the meals, laundry, house, readying the kids things for the next day's early rising, much less showing up at a teacher's conference to be told how important parental involvement is to a child's development. Catch-22.
Do any of these funds go to any private schools? or is it that GE feels that public school teachers are sub-par?Hide replies
I don't find any reason whatsoever in the article to infer that.
While some of GE funds are earmarked for MPS, the grant is actually to a nonprofit organization whose intent is to implement "a set of common, national standards for education".
Reading further the article states:
"The core standards will first address math and literacy; national science standards are in development.
The priorities are basic to the public needs of our nation and to any program the business community might deem "Developing Futures".
Off the top of my head I don't suppose the focus is on increasing the number of nuns, priests, and partisans in the community.
Thank you GE I think its wounderful when businesses can continue to put money into their State, if they have the money why not?? THANK YOU GE - I work for a company who puts back lots of money back into the communities and I think this is great.Hide replies
That $20 Million and the $18 Million from last year was TAX Moneoes they failed to pay the Feds...ill-gotten gains completely...and MPS teachers can't see the error of their ways...with 27% graduation rate? Yeah right...it'a all for the kids...and teachers benefits and retirements!Q
Will any of this generous grant to go towards the young MPS teacher recently awarded Teacher of the Year?
Oh yah, forgot she was fired recently, my bad. Its really only for those MPS teachers with seniority, not talent and quality in the classroom ... No thanks to MTA !!
Pathetic. If private businesses were run this way, all would be bankrupt in no time. Then who would pay taxes?
MPS just keep up the good job of a complete lack of quality in HS grads, which average about 45% grad rate.Hide replies
If I remember correctly the only thing "recent" about all this is the mention of her in Walker's 2012 State of the State Address. I don't remember her being at all pleased when he used her as an example to further his union-busting agenda the first time around.
That giant WHOOSH you just heard was the sound of $18 million being flushed down a toilet.
A graduate degree and a state certificate required to teach, and you need to spend even more money on training?
Where does it end?Hide replies
Yup, nobody needs training after college. Look at Doctors, Nurses, Engineers, Airline Pilots, Anyone in maintenance or operations. Yup, All of them have training periods and classes after college. Not just to increase pay either.
To all blog posters: JS deleted an earlier blog posting of mine because I expressed an opinion that GE was wasting their money on MPS. So much for free speech on these blogs.Hide replies
Along with my response, watchmutt ! [ I do admit I was more than slightly cranky this morning to begin with.] I have to give it to the JS though for being fair, balanced, and bipartisan on this one.
I think it would be nice if the headline read:
"$18 million GE grant to help train Milwaukee teachers to deal with lazy, apathetic parents"
As a former teacher, the majority of teachers know how to teach. The problem is parents who send their child to school not ready to learn. Teachers aren't the problem, a certain subsection of parents are, always have been and always will be the root of the problem.
Until we admit that fact this is throwing good money away. Perhaps mandatory training (strict bootcamp) classes for parents who have children identified as "at risk", to help them parent better? Anything but assuming that if we train teachers better, they'll be better able to deal with laziness, hopelessness and apathy, with a large dose of learned helplessness thrown in to really make things interesting.
Skeptical at first (with all that's gone on in the past year ~ if only the 22 suspect States had signed on, I would have researched what this 'Student Achievement Partners' organization was hoping to do to Wisconsin).
Can't fault pushing math, literacy (reading at least), solid science, in a world that seems to be determined to return to the dark ages.
Encouraged once again, to learn that after a long absence there still are enlightened businesses across the country. Stepping up and investing their dollars in kids getting the basics to survive in the marketplace as well as academia.
Elated even. I can't quite put into words what went through my mind recently hearing "we'd be hiring except we can't find any skilled workers" added to the laundry list of our would-be "job-creators".
Thank yous are in order. And all the best.Hide replies
23 suspect states. [ Indiana's State Senate passed a right-to-for-less-law today. Republican Governor Mitch Daniels who had promised not to support rtwfl in his campaign said he changed his mind based on "eight years of evidence" that some companies will not locate in a state that doesn't have the law.

VIDEO: Behind-the-Scenes of Carrie Underwood and Miranda Lambert's 'Somethin' Bad' Recording Session
PEOPLE shares a behind-the-scenes look at Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood in the recording studio for their hot, new duet, "Somethin' Bad." Check it out below!
"When she came in the studio I was writing to [husband] Blake, 'I'm in over my head, I don't know what I've done!' When you respect someone like that you get so nervous," Lambert revealed to PEOPLE Country. "To hit the notes she hits, I would have to take off running and jump as high as I could."
The duo performed the duet live for the first time at May's Billboard Music Awards in L.A., followed by performances in Nashville in June, at the CMT Music Awards and the CMA Music Fest.
"This song meshes our styles - it's a great match of what she does and what I do," says Lambert. "I hope she'll come to the dark side and we can explore something on video! I want the 'Before He Cheats' Carrie!"

From the article, "Without realizing it at the time, I had already fallen into the Monster Hunter rabbit hole. I had acquired an interest in a game that I initially hated. My constant search to find out what's so special about Monster Hunter resulted in me buying Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate a day after its launch. That has never happened to me before.
Upon starting the full game, I realized my initial negative reaction was due to a bad demo. It did a really bad job of explaining the world of Monster Hunter to new players. It assumed you were already a fan. "

TAMPA, FL - JANUARY 27: Martin St. Louis #26 of the Tampa Bay Lightning scores a first period goal against the Montreal Canadiens at the St. Pete Times Forum on January 27, 2010 in Tampa, Florida. (Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty Images)
Damian Cristodero, a Tampa Bay Lightning beat writer with whom I am familiar and respect, has initiated speculation on Martin St. Louis' future with the Tampa Bay Lightning. Though he admits there is no indication that either he or the Lightning have taken any steps towards moving him, it's a discussion that likely will happen. The Lightning are not in the playoff picture and are, as Cristodero says, a "team in transition." St. Louis, at 37, might decide he wants to move on for one last chance at the Stanley Cup, which likely is not going to happen in Tampa Bay in the next year or two. Though St. Louis does have a No-Trade Clause, it seems like a given (though not guaranteed) that he'd approve a move to the Rangers. He'd stay east, move to a team that theoretically should be contending in the next couple of years, and would be reunited with Tortorella and Richards. St. Louis has been linked to the Rangers in the past. St. Louis has an astounding 37 points in 28 games so ...

Two weeks ago, I received in the mail the JeNu Active-Youth Skincare System. I had heard about it on NewBeauty.com & actually won it in one of their daily giveaways. I have been using it for the past couple of weeks & I can DEFINITELY tell a difference in the look of the skin around the eyes & lips. I've always had dark circles & they've definitely started to fade. Also, the fine lines around my eyes are minimized. And my lips definitely look plumper & smoother. I know the longer I use the JeNu Active-Youth Skincare System I'll keep getting better & better results. I love it!

My relationship to the scale ( thanks Michelene for making me think again:)
View JULESANA8818's Sparkpage
View All Blog Entries from JULESANA8818
Sunday, January 08, 2012
My bestie sparkpal Michelene blogged the other day about how we love to hate the scale, this got me thinking. What is my earliest memory of the scale????? I was 8 or 9 and my mom took me for my annual exam at the pediatricians office he mentioned that I was about6 lbs ovewrweight, my mom put me on a diet that summer, I lost 5 pounds. I have included a picture from that summer.
that is me on the far left. I hated that scale, because that scale was the enemy. Depending on what that scale said determined what I could eat and how proud my mom was of me.
My next scale memories are my least favorite. during my high school years my mom would put me on the scale and proceed to tell my father and sister if I gained weight, bear in mind I started high school at 97lbs. and ended at 118lbs. I also went from an A cup to a C cup. My mom told me constantly how "chuncky " I was. I hated that scale it became the measurement of my worth. Pic of Senior prom included sorry my eyes are closed
When I moved out of my parents place and into a dorm, I did not take a scale with me. That last thing I wanted to do was weigh in. Over time I did start to gain weight by the time I was pregnant with my son I weighed 151lb. my mom suggested I diet before my wedding. I looked at her like she was nuts, I was 2 mo. . pregnant , I couldn't diet now. she said " it won't hurt anything" . She did not go dress shopping with me, I took a friend who was the best and helped me find a dress that I liked.
Now over the years i have gained and lost alot of weight. And the scale can still make or break my whole day. Sometimes I avoid it for months, who needs the disappointment, some times I weigh my self 3 times a day, even at night so I can guess if I will weigh less tommorow morning. This relationship is not healthy. As I pull up my big girl panties and try to start being healthy again, I realized that I need a new way to measure my success. So I am limiting my self to weighing in just once a week, On Sunday. I am also going to measure myself and use this as a gauge. I will measure how I feel, and If I made good choices that day. That will be my scale. I am more than a number on a scale.
looking for a better standard, Julie.

Yikes, I'm really sorry you had to deal with all that. Just yesterday I forced my daughter to weigh in on Wii Fit. She was so mad at me. But we hadn't weighed her in a year and I think it's important to know what you weigh. She had gained, but she also grew. I don't think I'll make her weigh in anymore. I know it makes her feel bad even though we talked afterwards and I told her I'm not upset about her weight at all. She seemed to get over it, but I don't know how it will affect her long term. I'll just focus on our eating and activity level and how her clothes fit her. Maybe she'll notice her jeans are loose and want to see how much she lost, but I won't push the issue. I'm glad you shared this with us, it can help stop the cycle in other families, even if it couldn't in your own.
I love your background btw. I'm on the We Love Edward team and it's very inactive now. I'd love to get it going again.

Sorry you had to grow up like that. Sometimes I think parents think they are doing the right things but it will only hurt us later in life.
I think you have a great plan to not let that scale rule you. Once a week is just enough. Good luck as you let go of that dreaded scale and look forward with new eyes on how you are really doing. Go by how you are feeling, how your clothes are fitting, etc... You can do this!!!!

Arso by Profumum
This is gorgeous stuff. I got a sample, so it's not my conscience trying to justify $240 bottle of perfume. The myrhh is high quality and not overly "incensey" or spicy. THere's a touch of a warm woody note and maybe some amber like labdanum or Peru Balsam. Very well done and long lasting. Sillage is not very far projecting but perfume should be for you, not for everyone in the room. Considering purchasing a full bottle. I don't really get "leather" with this, but it's well blended and complex so there may be a very subtle leather note for all I know.

Cornmeal Bread
Sesame seeds form a nice crust on this bread, which is particularly good toasted for breakfast.

Nutrition Profile
Diabetes appropriate | Low calorie | Low cholesterol | Low saturated fat | Low sodium | Heart healthy | Healthy weight |View Our Nutrition Guidelines »
- 5 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, (approximately), divided
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1/2 cup nonfat dry milk
- 1/2 cup oat bran
- 2 packages active dry yeast, (2 tablespoons)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 3/4 cups water
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 1 egg white, lightly beaten
- 1 tablespoon sesame or poppy seeds
- Stir together 2 cups flour, cornmeal, dry milk, oat bran, yeast, salt and sugar in a large bowl. Heat water, oil and honey in a small saucepan over medium heat until very warm, about 8 minutes. Add the warm liquid and whole egg to the flour mixture and blend with a mixer set at low speed or by hand until well combined. Gradually stir in remaining 3 1/2 cups flour until the dough pulls away from the bowl.
- Turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead until dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes, adding additional flour as needed to prevent the dough from sticking. Place dough in a bowl, cover and let rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1 1/4 hours.
- Punch the dough down, and divide it in half and shape each portion into a ball. Return the dough to the bowl, and let rest for 15 minutes, covered. Lightly oil two 8-by-4-inch loaf pans and sprinkle with cornmeal. Shape balls into loaves to fit pans, cover and let rise for about 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Uncover the dough and brush the tops of the loaves lightly with beaten egg white. Sprinkle with sesame (or poppy) seeds. Bake the loaves until the tops are golden brown and the bottoms sound hollow when tapped, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from the pans and let cool on a wire rack.

Football Gets Back to Road Slate at Vanderbilt
Nov. 14, 2013
Kentucky will visit Southeastern Conference Eastern Division foe Vanderbilt for a lunchtime matchup on Saturday. Kickoff is set for 12:21 p.m. ET at Vanderbilt Stadium.
Vanderbilt and Kentucky meet for the 86th time in school history. Kentucky leads the all-time series 41-40-4, and the Wildcats have won eight of the last 12 meetings, but Vandy has claimed the last two. VU leads the all-time series in games played in Nashville 25-19-2. Over 40 percent of the games played in the series have been decided by seven points or less.
Kentucky will look to bounce back from a 48-17 loss to No. 9 Missouri last Saturday. Vanderbilt is coming off its first win at Florida since 1945 last Saturday when they defeated the Gators 34-17.
Sophomore quarterback Jalen Whitlow is coming off a career day passing throwing for a career-high tying 225 yards and a rushing touchdown vs. Missouri.
Defensively, UK's pass rush ranks seventh in the league in sacks with 18. Junior defensive ends Za'Darius Smith and Alvin "Bud" Dupree rank seventh and ninth in the league in sacks. Avery Williamson has the third most tackles in the SEC with 82 tackles, as he is averaging 9.1 tackles per game.
Cat Scratches: Cats chasing complete game heading into trip to Vandy
Mark Stoops knows Kentucky has improved since day one.
Given the roles he's played in defensive turnarounds at Arizona and Florida State, he knows how to judge a team beyond its win-loss record.
The fact remains, however, that UK sits at 2-7. Nonetheless, he knows what he sees on tape, even after a 48-17 loss to Missouri on Saturday. ... read the full preview
Scouting Vanderbilt
Vanderbilt enters Saturday's game against Kentucky coming off one of the biggest wins in school history, defeating Florida in The Swamp for the first time since 1945. The Commodores are 2-4 in SEC play this season with wins against Florida and Georgia. Vanderbilt has won six straight games in November dating back to Nov. 2011.
Vanderbilt has had a good year offensively averaging 32.1 points per game behind 402 yards of total offense per game. Senior quarterback Austyn Carta-Samuels leads the team in passing playing in seven games, although he has not played the last two games due to injury. Carta-Samuels has completed 65.5% of his passes for 1,672 yards and 10 touchdowns, while freshman quarterback Patton Robinette has played well completing 28-of-48 passes for 364 yards with three interceptions and one touchdown. Senior wide receiver Jordan Matthews is the leading receiver with 66 catches for 890 yards and five touchdowns, while fellow senior wide receiver Jonathan Krause has 32 catches for 608 yards and three touchdowns. Sophomore running back Jerron Seymour is the leading rusher with 479 yards on 94 attempts with nine touchdowns, while senior running back Wesley Tate has four touchdowns and 284 yards on the season.
Senior safety Kenny Ladler leads the Vanderbilt defense with 68 tackles, including two interceptions and one pass breakup. Sophomore linebacker Darreon Herring is second on the team in tackles with 57 with eight pass breakups and one interception, while junior defensive end Kyle Woestmann paces the defensive line with 5.5 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks. The Vanderbilt defense has five interceptions on the year, forcing 23 fumbles and recovering 10.

Basically, they find grist to throw stones at the Puritans — and by extension, consciously or unconsciously, at all Christianity — from The Scarlet Letter. But I think they're missing the major plot focusing on the minor theme.
Hester Prynne is a heroine. She reversed her fortunes by overcoming. When they branded her an adulteress (she got pregnant, not by her husband, who was traveling away from her for two years), publicly shaming her, Hester made the extraordinary decision to stay in the same town and bear the stares.
Instead of running away, she confronted her detractors. Instead of meeting with open rebellion the unjust and hypocritical reviling, she quietly and unassumingly dedicated herself to help the poor of the town. After 7 years, the red "A" on her bosom came to mean "Able" in the eyes of all the town. She journeyed from sinner to saint.
I can't throw dynamite sticks at the Puritans. Instead, I want to live the life of Hester. I want to quietly show the work God is doing in my life. I want to do the works of God and demonstrate fruit of repentance. No, I haven't committed adultery. Her example transcends one sin and speaks about the human virtue of overcoming adversity and the triumph of change. She shows how strength can come from weakness.

When we kicked prayer out of school, we kicked out God. It's no surprise that the devil showed up instead.
What I don't understand is: if the atheists hail every extraction of God from our society, when they have succeeded in taking Him from people's minds, then why do they blame God for
the result?
My heart grieves for the Connecticut school, and for Virginia Tech, and for Columbine, and for the ever more frequent, ever worsening list of massacres. Our intelligence agencies work feverishly to "connect the dots" to thwart terrorist plots, but we refuse to "connect the dots" about the direction of our society.
Forgive me this post. But I am so distressed, I wish to call people everywhere to turn to God. Our nation will NOT improve until we find Him again.

PHNOM PENH, Cambodia (AP) — Southeast Asian leaders plan to adopt a human rights declaration aimed at fighting torture and illegal arrests in a region notorious for violations, despite criticism that the pact falls short of international standards.
Leaders of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations are scheduled to formally adopt the ASEAN Human Rights Declaration on Sunday during the group's annual summit in Cambodia, according to diplomats and documents obtained by The Associated Press on Thursday.
ASEAN leaders would commit to promote and protect human rights, along with "democracy, rule of law and good governance" in a joint statement they would sign to launch the declaration. But provisions in the draft say rights could be limited for reasons of security, public order and morality, exceptions that were criticized by rights groups.
The bloc's human rights commission, which drafted the declaration, would work for "the full realization of human dignity and the attainment of a higher quality of life for ASEAN peoples," the leaders would pledge in their statement.
Founded in 1967 as an anti-communist bloc in the Cold War era, ASEAN has taken feeble steps to address human rights concerns in the vast region of 600 million people, adopting a charter in 2007 where it committed to uphold international law and human rights but retained a bedrock principle of not interfering in each other's internal affairs — a loophole that critics say helps member states commit abuses without consequence. In 2009, the group unveiled a commission that was tasked to promote human rights but deprived of power to investigate violations or go after abusers.
ASEAN diplomats have called the declaration a milestone in the region despite its imperfections, saying it will help cement democratic reforms in countries such as Myanmar, which until recently has been widely condemned for its human rights record.
Philippine diplomat Rosario Manalo, a key proponent, says it is significant that the region's less democratic governments have embraced the declaration, which could have been torpedoed by any ASEAN member. The 10-nation group decides by consensus, meaning that even one objection could block a majority decision.

I absolutely love salsa of almost any kind and have started making my own at home because it just tastes so much better than the jarred kind you can buy in stores. This is a fairly traditional salsa verde but with the roasted tomatillos, jalapenos, onions, and garlic it adds a great smoky quality. This is also a salsa I love to jar and give out as gifts.
Roasted Salsa Verde
Servings: 20
Serving Size: 2 tbsp although since it is all veggies you can have as much as you like!
Weight Watchers® PointsPlus®: 0 *
1 lb tomatillos (about 8-10), husked and washed
3/4 onion quartered
3 unpeeled garlic cloves
large pinch of salt
handful of cilantro (about 1/2 cup)
1-2 jalapenos or serranos depending on how spicy you want it
1 lime
1. Turn on your broiler and get it nice and hot.
2. Place the whole tomatillos, garlic, jalapenos, and quartered onion pieces in a shallow baking dish and roast under the broiler for about 10 minutes, turning half way, until vegetables are charred on the outside.
3. Take them out of the oven and let them cool for about 10 minutes. Pull the stems from the jalapenos and remove the peel the garlic, it should just squeeze out. Dump everything into a blender. Make sure to also add the juices from the baking dish that seeped out during cooking!
4. Add the cilantro,salt, and juice of one lime and blend until well blended and then your salsa is ready to eat. It should keep for between 5-7 days, although it never lasts that long in my house.

I made this salsa to go with the Chilequilas Verde and it was really good! The only problem I had was it was almost too spicy and I love spicy! I think I will use a smaller jalapeno pepper next time! The one I used was pretty large at about 3 inches long.Reply
Awesome though!
Thanks Kristen!

How Do You Get The Front Header Pipe Off
Getting ready to change my Water Pump Seal and Shaft as PM on my 2007 990ADV. How do you get the front header pipe out? I thought it should come straight out, no! I took the screws off the heat shield and could not get the shield out! Which way do you turn the thing to get it out? I also noticed that there was one washer behind the plate holding the headed pipe in, should there be one on each side? I have had this moto since it had 4,900 miles and I don't think the header pipe has ever been off. The markings on the plate make it clear that there was only one washer. Thanks!
I will be interested to read the replies.
I found it somewhat difficult to remove the pipe but even more so when it came time to install it. I got so frustrated that I had to walk away.
My sweetie had a go at installing it, got frustrated and called a girl friend. Working together they got it lined up and I finished the install.
I'm sure there must be a technique to do a R&R rather easily. I hope to learn that technique.
Its an intelligents test :lol3
Seriously (:evil), it's been a while, but I remember having to loosen all the exhaust connections, and remove the heat shield - then it's one of those annoying twisty puzzles - then suddenly it just comes out.
Don't forget to get a new graphite gasket for the re-connect - you will almost certainly wreck the old one during disassembly.
Have fun :wink:
BTW - putting it back is fun too!
You need to loosen the clamp that holds the header to the rear section. You might be able to do it without removing the rear plastic cover.
After everything is loose, wiggle the header pipe until its clear of the cylinder studs.
Then its just a matter of twisting the right way to get it out.
There is no real reason to damage the graphite seal. When re-installing make sure to put everything in place before tightening any nuts or clamp.
Make sure the the rear clamp is tight and there is no exhaust gas leak.
Good luck.
I've removed the heatshield, the lambda sensor and... the battery since it gave me the extra room i needed to twist the pipe out.
I didn't find swearing helpful.
I was able to perform the job without removing the pipe. With it dis-connected at both ends I could work around it.
"It's kinda like sex." :lol3
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/RIOvOMgzOSs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
BTW, the shaft and seal at 28,285 miles showed no wear.
Pull a bolt
I ended up removing one allen - head bolt from the right side engine case and the header slipped right out. I think it was the one directly above and behind the clutch cover. Made a world od difference.
Just loosen the rear clamp, remove the nuts at the cylinder head and loosen the pipe. Either then or before, remove the heat shield. Since you are removing it anyway take the water pump cover off and the pipe will come out very easily. Put it back in reverse order. Its nice to have it out of the way. And yes, only one washer up front.
This was one thing that was better on the early 950s that had a shorter heat shield that I have never removed.
On the 990 it was not easy at all getting it out with both shield and pipe loose it was possible to wiggle shield out and then get pipe out.
When putting together I had forgotten to place heat shield and with pipe in place there is NO way to get heat shield in place so choose to cut it:
Carbon shield might not have been that smart since metal one seems to act as a heat sink drawing some heat from the bolts with carbon one I top out over 200 degree C (what is that in illogical fahrenheit ...like 400?) in bolt temperature and that melts pants, will have to address this winter, have new clothes on order and would just to melt them right away.

The Only Known 1882-CC Specimen Morgan Dollar1882-CC Specimen MS 64 NGC. This is probably the only known proof striking of the 1882-CC dollar. Its existence was unsuspected until November, 1980 when Bruce Amspacher sold the coin to Wayne Miller. The details of this transaction and a photograph of the coin are included in Miller's book The Morgan and Peace Dollar Textbook on page 213. We repeat the passage here, as it is an interesting story, and because we can add little substantive to what these experts have already pronounced on the subject.
"In November of 1980 Bruce Amspacher called to offer me a proof 1882-CC silver dollar. Since Bruce is one of the few people capable of distinguishing a proof from a deep-mirror prooflike business strike, I was intrigued. The price was outrageous, and there was nothing to suggest the possibility of the existence of a proof of this date. But after expressing considerable skepticism I told Bruce to ship the coin.
"This coin...is an obvious branch mint proof. Its chocolate brown toning does not obscure the deep-mirror proof surfaces, which are evident both in the field and the devices...There is a full, square rim around much of the circumference of the coin, both obverse and reverse. The coin has no bagmarks, but does exhibit a few hairlines which are largely hidden by the dark toning.
"In summary, this 1882-CC essentially fulfills the requirements for a branch mint proof Morgan dollar."
