COVINGTON - The drama surrounding the new Nelson Heights Community Center continued to play out at Tuesday's Board of Commissioners meeting.District 4 Commissioner J.C. Henderson - who, along with the rest of the board, voted last month to allow the Recreation Commission to determine if it could take over the center - asked Tuesday night for the agenda to be amended so that he could rescind that vote. Henderson said he was offended by a letter sent by the Recreation Commission to the Board of Commissioners listing concerns and questions about the project. The letter states that before taking over the facility, the Recreation Commission "has to have the assurance that there will be no outside interference from the Nelson Heights 501(c)3 Board." A list of questions submitted by the Recreation Commission also states "If the Recreation Commission decides to take this facility, will there be any outside pressure from established 501(c)3 or district four commissioner once we take over?" "I felt like that was something personal against me," said Henderson, who has served on the Recreation Commission for 13 years. Henderson said a county commissioner has the right to be in any county facility at any time, and he believes this is an attempt to keep him out of the community center and to keep the community it is intended to serve from being involved. "I sold (the community) on a dream that we were going to take care of their children and give them a place to relax and have fun ... and now they're trying to take that dream away from them," Henderson said Wednesday."They're saying 'We don't want anyone to come in and tell us how to run this facility. This is a community center - it's not a recreation facility.'" Commissioners denied his request to amend the agenda by a vote of 3-2, with Earnest Simmons in favor and Mort Ewing, Nancy Schulz and Tim Fleming opposed. Recreation Commission Chairman Johnny Presley said the commission was simply trying to make sure there wouldn't be two boards trying to run the center. "We don't know how that would have worked and who would be put in to manage it. We didn't quite understand the other level of having another board and having the recreation department co-manage the program," he said. Presley said Henderson and Simmons attended the Recreation Commission meeting in which the concerns were discussed and did not at that time indicate any problem. "It was nothing personal. It was not a slap in any direction. There were things we wanted to address before we took the facility over," he said. Those concerns are expected to be addressed at a work session prior to the board's Oct. 20 meeting, according to Recreation Commission Director Tommy Hailey. "I don't think the board's intention was to make anybody look bad. I've got all the respect in the world for J.C. He's done a lot of good things for this community. If I hurt his feelings, I apologize for that," he said. "I only do what my board tells me to do. I don't make the decisions. The decision was made to send the letter back with that concern." Chairman Kathy Morgan has said there is no record of the Board of Commissioners ever approving the formation of a 501(c)3 to operate the facility. The nonprofit was created with assistance from the county attorney's office at Henderson's request. The county attorney has since withdrawn an invoice for that work. Ewing, who, along with Henderson, served on the board when the center was approved and placed on the SPLOST ballot, said the board agreed only to buy the land for the center and construct the building, with the intent that it be rented out to the community and rental fees be used to pay for maintenance and operations. Under the Recreation Commission's proposal, the use of the facility would be limited to programs determined by the commission; county/city functions and meetings; Recreation Commission-sponsored programs, meetings and events and a voting precinct. The building would be rented for community meetings and events such as family reunions and baby or wedding showers. The Recreation Commission also wants confirmation that there is $64,000 allocated for the center in the county budget as previously stated by Henderson. If so, half would be used immediately and the other half during the 2010-11 budget cycle for maintenance and operations and capital improvements. The Recreation Commission has also raised the concern of why it is being asked to take on additional facilities, including Cousins Gym and a park planned for Fairview Estates, without additional funding. Presley said that if the $64,000 has been allocated, the center can likely be funded for two years, possibly with additional grants or charitable gifts. As for how the Recreation Commission can take on additional projects after having its funding cut by 20 percent, Presley said concerns still remain. "The program cannot run unless funds are available to run it," he said. Crystal Tatum can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Mayor, homeless shelter supporters meet
We have a community and community leaders who believe that the Garden of Gethsemene Homeless Shelter needs to exist to serve those who are in need of temporary shelter. Pastor Lett founded this shelter, and had done her best to serve all of those who come seeking help.
I have first hand knowledge that the work at the shelter is well managed and essential to the community. Mayor Johnston and former Mayor Ramsey are men who understand the importance of both the shelter and the support behind it. But in order for this shelter to thrive and be sustainable, it needs an active board that meets regularly to make decisions for the shelter's (and it's residents') best interests. Let's not blame the messengers for the difficult, yet realistic decisions that have to be made.

We have been blessed to have Mr. Horton serve our community in so many capacities over the past 35 years.
The next time that you see Steve Horton out and about, please take a moment to thank him for his tireless efforts to make this place that we love, an even better place to live.
God bless you Steve Horton.

Newton school board holds apparent illegal meeting
Mr. Meadors continues to be one of the most thoughtful and vocal proponent of our children, their schools, and our teachers. Having read all of his columns, I cannot find a single instance in which he discredited the NCSS, shared confidential information, or personally attacked anyone. This meeting should have never been held.
That said, let's not throw Mr. Campbell under the bus for this incident. He was hired by the BOE to act as its attorney; to advise on legal matters and to handle litigation. He doesn't set policy, nor does he call meetings like this. He serves at the pleasure of the BOE. When the Board Chair calls him into a meeting like this, it is his job to attend. Period. Put the blame for this unfortunate incident where it belongs. Mr. Johnson alone bears the responsibility for calling this meeting.

$10 Two-Bedroom Apartment Deal Comes Through for Old Mars Bar Tenants
Posted By Sherrell Dorsey On May 1, 2013 @ 2:00 pm In Architecture,Manhattan | 1 Comment
In an expensive city like New York, $10 doesn't get you much. But for nine tenants who occupied two small buildings along Second Avenue for decades, their ten bucks will buy them a two bedroom, tax-free apartment in a fancy pants luxury high-rise. The tenants struck a deal with BFC Partners [4] a few years ago to buy cooperative units in a new 12-story, 65-unit building called Jupiter 21, where market rate rents range from $3,000 to $10,000 per month. Now complete, the tenants are finally ready to move in to their new digs overlooking the Manhattan Bridge.
The new Jupiter building replaced two old buildings in the East Village—one of which housed the treasured Mars Bar [6]. Though the demolition of old-school neighborhood history brought much upheaval [7] among the locals wanting to hold onto the fading culture of the place they called home, BFC kept its promise to offer 9 of the 13 affordable units for purchase by Mars Bar building tenants.
The tenants will now be owners of a luxury apartment, designed by GF55 Partners [8], which boasts lots of sunlight, a built-in washer and dryer, walnut floors, a rooftop terrace and even a serenity garden. The other four units will be sold by lottery $150,000 to residents making under $64,000.
"I don't know who these people are," said tenant John Vaccaro, 81, to Crain's New York [7], as he motioned to the street below his second-floor loft. But he's not going to pass up this great deal. "They're giving me a two-bedroom apartment. That sounds fab."

Travel Packing Tips For a Carry-On Bag
10 Packing Tips For Easier, Lighter Travel
Like us on Facebook
- Pack light
Seasoned travelers know that the lighter your bag is, the easier things will be. I can fit everything I need into this carry-on bag. Unless you absolutely have to have an item, beauty or otherwise, leave it at home.
- Watch the size
The three-ounce rule is a pain, but there's no getting around it. Before you leave for your trip, be sure that anything you've packed in that quart-sized plastic bag is small enough to go on the plane. If it's 100ml or less, you're fine. Anything more will be confiscated by the friendly TSA agents at the airport. Don't think you can skirt the rules by bringing a 200ml bottle that's less than half full. You'll still have to pitch it.
- No, really, watch the size
While in Belize, an airport agent tried to confiscate a small bottle of sunscreen, claiming that the size was outside regulations. It wasn't, so I politely pointed that out. He grumbled, but I went on my way. To quote those great philosophers The Clash: know your rights.
- Have a "go bag"
If you travel regularly, save time by keeping certain essentials ready to go. I keep a mini toothpaste, deodorant, toothpaste, sunscreen, floss, razor, and tinted moisturizer in a plastic bag. It's always in the suitcase, so I never have to worry about forgetting those items.
- Sample freely
You can always transfer liquid products into small containers, but you might not need to. Instead, squirrel away free samples when you find them. They'll come in handy when you need only a weekend's worth of product. On the same note, if you don't use all of the hotel shampoo, take the wee bottle with you for future use. It'll be tossed otherwise, so why not use it on a future trip?
- Ditch the liquids
Whenever possible, choose nonliquid beauty items. Instead of gel cleanser, I use a powder cleanser like Fix Wish Wash. Swap your liquid eye makeup remover for a package of makeup removal cloths. If you can use powder foundation, you're golden. Less liquid means more room in your plastic bag for everything else.
- Don't pack perfume
Leave the Jean Nate at home, unless you're willing to risk a broken bottle that makes everything you packed smell like Jean Nate.
- Do the math
Lots of airlines have $25 checked-baggage fees. Round-trip, that's a ridiculous $50. If you're tempted to check your bag just so you can pack that big bottle of nail polish remover, consider that you'll be essentially paying $50 to transport a $3 product. It's much cheaper to buy some products at your destination.
- Use the rules to your advantage
If you have a prescription for tretinoin, clindamycin, or other doctor-approved liquid drugs, you're in luck. Such medicines are exempt from the three-ounce rule. Just keep the pharmacy packaging and label in case a TSA agent wants to know what's up.
- Keep these on hand
No matter where you go, you'll be well-served by a nail clipper, bandages, an emery board, safety pins, floss, a small plastic comb, and period supplies.
Any other packing tips you've gathered from your travels?

Conferees Strip Language Restricting Non-BRAC Realignments
- December 21, 2011
- comments:0
House and Senate conferees negotiating the final version of the fiscal 2012 defense authorization bill dropped a provision from the House version of the legislation which would have eliminated a loophole allowing DOD to bypass statutory requirements to notify Congress when realigning a mission outside of a BRAC round.
The provision would have amended 10 U.S.C. Sec. 2687, a rarely used statute allowing base closures and realignments to be carried out when a BRAC round is not under way. Section 2687 requires the defense secretary to give Congress 60 days to review proposed actions meeting certain thresholds:
- closure of an installation at which at least 300 civilian personnel are authorized; or
- a realignment involving a reduction by more than 1,000 — or by more than 50 percent — in the number of civilians authorized at the installation.
The statute exempts, however, "a reduction in force resulting from workload adjustments, reduced personnel or funding levels, skill imbalances, or other similar causes" from the definition of a realignment. If the department were considering a realignment above the 1,000-worker threshold, for example, it might be able to sidestep the statute's notification requirements by first reducing the workforce below 1,000 civilians, and then realigning the remaining activity.
The provision in the House version of the authorization bill would have closed that loophole by eliminating the list of exceptions.
The provision was prompted by then-Defense Secretary Robert Gates' recommendation in 2010 to realign Joint Forces Command. In explaining their decision to drop the language from the conference report, the conferees said they supported the need for the department to adjust force structure in tandem with workload and mission requirements. Still, the conferees said they "are concerned with the perception" that DOD may have bypassed the limitations of Section 2687 by completing a reduction in force at a defense activity and then realigning the balance of the workforce.
"The conferees believe that such a contravention of Section 2687 would be inappropriate," they wrote.
"Activities that exceed the thresholds of Section 2687 at the time of the secretary's decision to reorganize a particular activity should be specifically submitted in accordance with the notification process delineated in Section 2687," the conferees concluded. In carrying out the closure of Joint Forces Command, DOD ultimately rolled back the number of civilian workers affected by the realignment and avoided the need to follow the statute.

The Kapok Support Cushion is a simple cushion that can be used alone for meditation or in conjunction with any of our other meditation cushions to provide extra lift or support. This cushion can also be used for yoga practice, or as a prop for stretching, raising the legs, or to support any area of the body during meditation or bodywork sessions. The cushion is light in weight and the kapok (a dense cotton-like material) is lightly stuffed in the cushion to make it softer than our other kapok cushions.
The Support Cushion is covered in durable cotton fabric and has a single large stitch in the middle to keep the kapok filling in place. Placing the cushion under the knees helps relieve pressure on the knee joint during meditation.
This cushion is lightly filled. It is not recommended for use by itself as a sitting cushion as it will flatten to about 1 inch in height. It can be used to provide additional lift along with any of our other meditation cushions.

Just when you think government can't get any more bizarre, along comes a story that makes you wonder if Larry, Moe, and Curly can be far behind. The following above-the-fold headline appeared in Thursday's Washington Times print version: "D.C.'s fix: Set up a gun shop with cops." Somebody must have caught the Freudian slip, as the paper's online version dispensed with the opening pun, "D.C.'s fix," and left it at "D.C. police sets up gun dealer in its headquarters."
Whether one is for or against so-called gun control, the situation in high-crime District of Columbia is emblematic of the duplicity that surrounds modern-day law enforcement and our constitutional rights.
Washington, D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department has come up with a brainstorm to ensure that the Nation's Capitol does not wind up violating the U.S. Supreme Court's landmark 2008 decision (District of Columbia v. Heller) invalidating D.C.'s gun ban, illegally imposed in 1976 — open the District's only gun shop in a police station.

Holistic Practice Dott. Eugenio Bacchini
Counseling, Coaching, Life Change (Personal Transformation)
Holistic Counseling integrates various approaches to the study of the mind in order to fuse them in a unified concept of the Self. From ancient Eastern spiritual traditions to the most recent research on psychology and mindful education, personalized methods are utilized to:
- Facilitate self-awareness and self improvement;
- Learn how to block automatic negative responses;
- Improve interpersonal relationships and communicational skills;
- Create a satisfying individual lifestyle;
- Enhance physical, mental and spiritual well-being.
Holistic Counseling incorporates:
- Psychosynthesis and NLP exercises;
- Guided imagery;
- Relaxation and breathing exercises;
- Expressive techniques such as free-form design, sound/music, and various forms of written exercises such as diaries and autobiographical sketches.
Each of us is faced with difficulties on a daily basis that can generate frustration, poor self-image, a sense of inadequacy, and fear of being incapable of confronting situations and complexities deriving from the frenetic rhythm of the lives we lead. Even without resulting in pathologies, constant frustration, poor self-image and an overriding sense of inadequacy cause stress and can lead to various forms of depression or anxiety.
Through Holistic Counseling, you can enrich your relationship with yourself and with others. Through a supportive relationship with a Counselor, personalized exercises of breathing and stress-relaxation, guided imagery, and the practice of meditation, as well as through the use of various expressive techniques, you can improve self-esteem and discover the gratification of a sense of well-being and balance.
With time and adequate training, you can learn to utilize the available moments throughout the day to recharge yourself, increase self-awareness, block negative emotions, relax, and develop inner harmony.

Hood River Valley fighters spent a hot weekend mopping up at two separate blazes that destroyed one structure and damaged two others.
The first alarm sounded about six p.m. on Saturday and sent the Hood River Fire Department scrambling to a duplex fire on Sieverkropp Road in the Heights. They arrived to find both units in flames that had sent embers showering onto other properties. Their problems were compounded when an attic fire was sparked in a neighboring house on Kropp Court. Firefighters from West Side, Odell, Pine Grove, Parkdale and Mid-Columbia swarmed to the scene but were unable to prevent the roof from collapsing into the duplex, which was destroyed. A shed in another nearby yard also burned. Flames torched the lawn of a third home, but the structure was undamaged.
Fire Chief Don Petito said the attic fire was extinguished in the other structure but it sustained damage from smoke and water. The Red Cross arranged temporary lodging for Lisa Mauroni and Laney Gale, duplex residents, and homeowners Ken and Tovy Anderson. Volunteers from the Trauma Intervention Program, a victim assistance group, provided moral support for the families during the crisis.
The state fire marshal surveyed the scene on Monday but has not yet rendered a decision about the cause of the blaze.
However, Sunday's destruction of an abandoned house on Riordan Hill Drive has been termed "suspicious in nature." West Side Fire Marshal Jim Trammell said the residence had been left unlocked and vacant for many years. In addition he said there was no electrical service to the structure so the cause of the blaze cannot be faulty wiring.
"There's nothing there that could have started it unless someone had been in there doing something like burning a candle," he said.
West Side was paged to the scene about 8:45 a.m. on Sept. 28 after the owner of the structure, John Piatt, passed by and found it on fire. The house was fully engulfed when West Side arrived and they called in other valley fighters to help knock the aging wood down into the basement where the blaze was finally extinguished. The flames had also crept into the nearby underbrush and the Oregon Department of Forestry helped to extinguish the wildfire that consumed about one-fourth of an acre of dry grass and vegetation.
"Our biggest concern was that the fire would go up the hill and get into other structures but we were able to knock it down," he said.

The Postgame Post Mortem: The Why Yes, They Do Still Suck Edition
You know what? I feel short-changed for a very brief Bears week. Not enough days to tell my assistant at work her team sucks dead toads through a straw. Not enough time to mock the gimpy Urlacher Fathead that got sacked by a QB and has as many Super Bowl rings as my first grader who is going head-to-head with the even cooler Rodgers Fathead. No taunting my archnemesis from college about how his team is nothing more than the Marshmallows of the Midway. But who am I fooling, it still feels mighty fine to be exiting Lambeau late last night to the chants The Bears Still Suck . Because last night, they really did and all is right with the universe once again. So with out further adieu, let's put those Marshmallows on the weekly slab…
- For those of you who do not know, I am incredibly superstitous. My lucky socks that I had since the playoff run of the 2010 season will never be worn to any Packer game since they forgot to impart any and all good luck last January when the Pack faced the Giants. Needless to say, I have not seen a field goal attempt since 1996. Had a feeling something other than the usual Mason Crosby dependabilty (Yes, JerseyAl, I did mean that) was happening when the cheers kept getting louder and then exploded a lot longer than it takes Crosby to bang one through the uprights. That said, I was hiding in my shirt when Crabtree was making with the razzle dazzle magic.
- And the trick play could not have happened to a better guy. Tom Crabtree has been a secret we have all known about. But after last night, the entirle nation knows who the guy with the tattoo is and why we adore him. We can say we knew him way back when he filmed himself watching the ESPYs while eating a bowl of cereal.
- Speaking of the trick play, I honestly don't care what Rodger's QB rating was. Cutler's was the same as the perfect temperature for a frosty beer. But let's hear it for Ginger Wolverine's perfect passer rating of 158!
- While we're at it, has there ever been a game before where the only passing TD in the first half came frm a punter?
- For the record, that trick play has officially negated the giant bowl of suck that was that other 4th and 26.
- Meanwhile Quckie has still got it. Rumors of his demise were greatly exaggerated. And, I like his new Chicken with a Train TD dance. Oh man, did the crowd eat that up! You just know he's had this one in the works since he took home that mirrror ball.
- Cedric Benson? Not horrible but not great. Kind of par for the course for the Packers running game. Would think more of him if he would manage to finally get one in the endzone.
- The idea of Randall Cobb playing a little H-back does not bother me one bit. Keeps defenses on their toes.
- Speaking of Cobb, Len game him only a 7 for his twisting buttsmack on the opening run-back.
- No, Jermichael Finley doesn't have a problem holding on to the ball. Oh wait, he still does. And if that wasn't enough, we can now add fumblitis to his expansive repertoire.
- No, seriously, Finley, what is your major malfunction?
- Speaking of not impressed, Newhouse, if you don't start protecting your QB, you might as well start carrying a pouch to carry all of Rodgers' teeth that are getting knocked out when you forget what your job really is. Same goes for you Lang. Rodgers isn't going to have a chance if you spend most of your time using an industrial strength spatula peeling him off the turf.
- That said, it always seemed more comforting when Crab or Williams was adding a little beef to the line.
- This will probably put me on some sort of crap list, but where did Aaron Rodgers go? This is the third game in arow (if you date back to the playoffs last year) where he has not played like himself. The husband and the random dude with the long hair next to me each wondered out loud if there is some sort of Krytonite or Yoko Ono in his life that is all up in his head and putting the whammy on his football mojo. How would I know? I'm not his mom. But something isn't right. He's clunky right now. Perhaps it's because he's running for his life most of the time. Sure, Jones should have had that one in the endzone, but the back shoulder pass isn't working right now. The checkdowns are there, but he acts like he doesn't always see them. But I have a feeling he post mortems with the best of them, so I am hopeful this problem rectifies it. Or maybe we're just spoiled with that season average QB rating last year of 122.
- I lost count, how many times did Cutler get sacked? I thought I heard him shriek all the way from the club level.
- And since Sparty is one of my alma maters, rock on, Jerel Worthy! Welcome to the big leagues, my man!
- Somewhere Dom Capers is burning a picture of Rehor and saying, "How you like me now?"
- And notice who was missing in the starting roster for the defense? Didn't really see Bush on special teams either. Yes, he was suited up. The one and only time I saw him was as he was jogging back to the tunnel at the end of the game. Guess we don't need to send the dogs out for him. Was beginning to think he was traded to a junior varsity team in Guam.
- But notice how the secondary was, well, less sucktastic without him?
- All kidding aside, was much more pleased with the secondary. Less cushion with their zone coverage.
- How 'bout that whole rushing the QB thing we seemed to lack lately? Cover Matthews, then Smith has a line to the QB. Try to take Smith out of the mix, and Worthy was ready, willing and able. This is the defense that wins games. Enough of that bend, don't break crap. Go for the jugular, and don't let up until tht final whistle.

7.3L Oil Pan leak - Fix in the truck?
Well my 7.3 oil pan seal is leaking - again.
A couple years ago I did the whole engine removal and replaced the pan itself because it had rusted through. I followed all the right steps and used the Ford oil pan sealer in the caulking gun tube, replaced all of the main seals & all that at the same time, etc. But the truck doesn't get driven often, and after sitting most of the winter it has developed a rather significant leak from a back corner of the oil pan seal. Apparently I didn't do it good enough the first time or maybe it just dried out during winter storage.
I know it has been discussed much already, but I'll ask anyway - Has anyone on the forum had any luck with re-sealing a perfectly good oil pan (the pan itself does not need to be replaced) while inside the truck?
I am really tempted to try one of two options to try to save some time:
1. Remove the transmission & flywheel, and use the Ford sealer to caulk in the joint where the pan meets the block, sort of like caulking a bathtub, without separating the pan from the block at all (to avoid breaking the seal where it is not leaking).
2. Weld or bolt some steel between the frame rails to prevent spreading, and torch out the rivets holding the crossmember in under the oil pan and remove it. Then the pan could come out & in and I could bolt or weld the crossmember back in. This would also enable me to do it again when it leaks again next time.
I know it is a relatively easy engine to get in & out, I did do it myself last time with the help of a few friends and a rented engine crane, and it would be well worth it if the oil pan seal would have lasted more than 15 months. I am just trying to avoid that amount of work/time/expense this time, and if it is going to be a recurring issue I want to find a method to make it relatively easy to do again every year or two.
Any suggestions or comments on my ideas above would be appreciated.
Or if anyone knows of a reputable repair place in the Minneapolis area who can seal an oil pan (and guarantee it) for a reasonable price please pass along. The best quote I have so far is $1750 from a Ford dealer.
950 if you can get it to me lol. No i wouldn't recommend "caulking" the oil pan. I've seen people try to do it and it never stops the leak, just slows it or in some cases makes it worse lol. Now your cross member idea is something if you want to do. Its easier for me just to pull the engine but thats up to you to decide.
No ideas from anyone??
This has gotten bad enough that it is time for action.
So nobody out there has ever done 7.3 oil pan in the truck??
I have to believe someone has gone through this pain at some point, even if the result was that it does not work.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
I know of a guy who tried doing it without pulling the engine or the cross member. He got so much silicone in it that it fell inside the oil pan and plugged up the pickup tube.
Personally I've never tried doing it without pulling the engine. I have pulled just the rear main seal plate and resealed those successfully in chassis. If the pan is sealed properly it should never leak. The pan will rust out again before it will leak. I would have to assume that you didn't get enough silicone in one area or it was dirty and didn't seal properly.
I always replace the oil pan or reseal it with the engine out. This way you can make sure it's perfectly clean.
It actually does appear that there is a gap in the oil pan silicone in the corner on the pass side right next to the curve for the rear main. Whether I didn't apply enough or it wasn't clean or it dried up & shrank is kind of moot at this point. That is why I thought I would try to just silicone over the gap from the outside (which I still might just to see if it works, even temporarily).
What I am really after though is anyone who has actually removed the corssmember and pan in the vehicle. I have a hoist in my garage and this would make the pan R & R quite easy if the crossmember and maybe axle was out of the way, both of which appear to be easier to remove than the transfer case, transmission, and engine.
Sorry, can't help on that question. You can leave the transmission in place though. Just run a ratchet strap underneath it to hold it up. Personally it seems like more work pulling the cross member out then pulling the engine.
Good luck though!
Oops, just saw you have a manual trans. Never mind, it is a pain to pull the engine without removing the trans on a manual.
yep i dnt c how it would b any better to take all that out i would worrie about the strength of the frame mabie its just me but i think u gata do what u gata do
when my engine was out I didnt realize that you had to use the gray silicone, and instead I used ultra black. there were some places that were leaking, mainly in the back. I got in there with a razor knife and pulled out the silicone that wasnt bonded and got a putty knife and spackled it in there. Its been holding good. I was willing to go through anything to get out of pulling the engine again..... good luck.
I did take some of the gray Ford silicone and spackled/caulked in using a popsicle stick in that one corner where it was dripping and that actually seems to be working so far, at least for the past couple months since I did it. Keeping my fingers crossed.
i've done three reseals with the motor in the truck. you can lift them high enough and put a couple of pieces of 2by4 ontop of the engine mounts to hold the motor there. doing it this way is a bit tricky when it comes time to put the pickup-tube back in. you have to get the pan kinda in place ond them slip the tube in and up and bolt it up without smearing the rtv.---- that was the first time - after that i removed the core suport and cab mounting bolts and lifted the body and motor enough to get in without any hassle (i think i also disconnected the steering shaft). this worked gr8 and didn't take me long at all. have fun

Samsung has been long rumored to plan the release of a second Galaxy Nexus smartphone, one that was said to feature model number GT-i9260 (since the original is GT-i9250), but it appears that said device could be a totally different phone.
GT-i9260, instead, should arrive on shelves as Galaxy Premier, with mid- to high-end features, such as 4.65-inch 720p display, 1.5 GHz dual core processor, an 8-megapixel photo snapper on the back and 2MP front camera.
A photo with the device has emerged online over at Mobile Geeks, showing a design closely resembling that of Galaxy S III.
Running under Google's Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operating system, the new handset is expected to become official before the end of this year, with a price tag of $620 (€480) attached to it.
It still remains to be seen what Galaxy Nexus II, provided that Samsung is working on one, will be all about.

 Can you add a small padlock to this case? Are there holes for locks?

Asked by: freddc1

 There are not specific holes for a padlock but you could possibly put a lock around the handle to secure it.

Judge Rules Jesse Ventura Can Proceed With Lawsuit Against Deceased Navy Seal

July 22, 2013
Former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura's defamation lawsuit against slain "American Sniper" author Chris Kyle – purportedly the deadliest ever American serviceman – will be allowed to go forward with Kyle's widow as the defendant, a federal judge ruled last week.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Arthur Boylan ruled on Thursday that Taya Kyle, who has been appointed executor of her husband's estate, would be a proper substitute in the case and says requests to substitute defendants are freely granted.
'(If) a party dies and the claim is not extinguished, the court may order substitution of the proper party,' Boylan wrote in his decision.

Justin Bieber Sings Metallica's 'Fade to Black,' World Somehow Still Exists
The apocalypse was supposed to happen in 2012, not 2013, right?

Roman parishioners to attend Pope's weekday Masses
Catholic World News - December 31, 2013
Father Federico Lombardi, the director of the Holy See Press Office, has announced that beginning in January, parishioners in Rome will be permitted to attend the Pope's weekday Masses at Domus Sanctae Marthae.
"The parishes will be informed on how to apply by Cardinal Agostino Vallini, vicar of Rome," according to a Vatican statement. "Since the Holy Father cannot visit all the parishes in his diocese at the moment, this initiative will ensure that at least some of the faithful of Rome will be able to participate in Mass celebrated by their bishop."

I enjoyed watching the show, but it was a little frustrating that the actual recipe amounts were not given! It was more just the process, without recipes.
I would dearly love the recipe for the Onion Squares from Lorena Higby of Clinton.
I would also second the suggestion by Renee to lower the volume of the background music during the presentations.

I wish to thank everybody for their interest in the project. Thanks to the enthusiasm of the researchers that have signed-up, it is now possible to have a year-long series of monthly Society lectures, with topics that range from rehabilitation, mental health, perception and physiology, to haptic rendering and devices, teleoperation and visualization.
List of researchers interested in joining the Society.
of comments submitted by the community.
Dear members of the haptics community:
I would like to invite all of you to start a professional, international, not-for-profit Society for Haptics. Intended to promote and exchange knowledge about all aspects of the field, the Society would exploit today's communication technology to offer the following two initial benefits to members:
1. A virtual seminar series, presenting lectures by Society members. The lectures would be made available to members through the World Wide Web. To minimize costs and simplify technical requirements, the lectures would consist of a computer audio file containing the pre-recorded lecture and a set of slides to accompany it. The members would download the lecture and slides from the Society's websites, and listen to it on their computer. The slides would be accessed through a web browser. Even though the lecture would be pre-recorded, the speaker would be available for a real-time question and answer session. Members would use a chat program to send typed questions to the speaker. The spirit of the seminar would be that of traditional university talks, but it would offer the following unique advantages:
The opportunity to interact with our colleagues in real time,
regardless of geographical location.
The opportunity for senior faculty, graduate students and
postdoctoral fellows to present their work to a worldwide
community on a weekly basis.
c. Several lectures could be available at any given time for download.
Because the seminars would be pre-recorded, they would be
available to members for review during a reasonable
period of time.
2. An electronic chat service for members. Always available, intended for informal exchange of ideas, the chat service would also be used to discuss the virtual seminars.
Please note that Society services are not intended to replace conferences such as Eurohaptics or the Haptics Symposium. The electronic lectures are intended to be informal, non-peer-reviewed ways to let other researchers know about our work or interests.
These services are technically feasible. I believe that they could bring a great deal of exciting new research possibilities to our field. The opportunities for meeting new researchers and for establishing new collaborations would be extensive. Access to the Society resources would be restricted to members, but if the Society at large decides so, some or all lectures would be available to the public for download. In the event of public distribution, the copyright of the lectures would remain with the original authors.
If well a membership fee is a possibility to cover costs, I would propose at this time to share the cost in the following ways, which are, of course, open to discussion:
1. As part of his/her Society subscription, each member would make a firm commitment to periodically prepare and deliver an electronic lecture to the Society. The period in-between lectures by the same member would be open to discussion, a possibility is to give a lecture every six months. Each lecture could be anywhere from fifteen to sixty-minute long. The content of the lectures could include, among many other possibilities:
-The current research of members.
-Surveys about the scope of the work in each member's laboratory.
-A discussion of important papers from the current literature (not necessarily
articles authored by the presenter).
-Society members from the corporate world could present the technical
features of their products.
2. Each member would supply space and bandwidth in a computer server to host the lectures for download by other members. The speaker would be responsible for recording his/her lecture, and for uploading it and the accompanying slides into a central server. Each member would be responsible for downloading the lecture file from this central server into their own servers before a broadcast. To make optimal use of storage and bandwidth resources, I would organize the access to the lectures and distribute the requests for downloads across all members' servers. I would also provide storage and bandwidth to download lecture slides, offer advice on how to prepare the lectures for electronic delivery, and host the website of the Society.
3. Each member would use free, or donated software for playing the lectures, and also for recording them.
Should the Society be started, Professor Vincent Hayward, Director of the Center for Intelligent Machines at McGill University, Canada, has kindly agreed to give the first Society lecture. Starting the Society would depend on the amount of interest shown by the haptics community.
If you would like to be a
member of the Society, please write to
If possible, please add an URL with information about you. This URL would be included in the summary of the project's progress (see below). I would highly appreciate your feedback about this project, too. Please send me any comments/questions you may have. I will edit all the comments I get, and post a summary here to be shared with you for further discussion. If you don't want to be mentioned by name in the summary please indicate so when sending your comments.
Please feel free to forward this message to friends, colleagues or students that might be interested in participating.

Yes, I would be interested and able to participate in a society such as that which you have outlined.
2. Dr. Manuel Cruz, Immersion Corporation. Dr. Cruz wrote::
My concern is that soon enough we will be having lectures that because of the lack or review might not be up to the standard of the general community and therefore, the lectures will start loosing audience. I really think there must be some sort of review process, even if it is juts one person that reviews it, to ensure the material is technically sound and with the required level for the members to be interested. Nevertheless, I am interested in participating in this society if it becomes a reality.

I'd be interested in becoming member of your Society for Haptics. I'm a PhD student working on an Augmented reality application for dynamic 3d modeling to be used in mathematics and geometry education for the enhancement of spatial abilities. In a current project funded by the European Union we plan to integrate a haptic device (Cybergrasp) and evaluate its use for educational purposes. At a later stage of the project (in 1-2 years) I can imagine giving a lecture to the community/society about our work. Providing the necessary infrastructure (server for download) is no problem.
7. Professor Gunnar Jansson from Uppsala University, would like to be kept informed about the progress of the project. He wrote:
I appreciate your efforts to increase interaction between us. However, I'm not yet convinced that oral lectures and chats are the best ways. They take a lot of time and the value of chats is sometimes meagre per unit of time. I think the heavy types of information are written papers and meetings with people at conferences. Therefore, I'm not ready to give any promise about the extent of participation. Anyhow, I would like to be informed of the progress of your initiative.
G.R. I agree that papers and meetings offer many advantages. I believe that the virtual lectures would complement, rather than substitute them, in the following way. In haptics, becoming aware of new advances, and using them in our research, requires us to understand and keep up with the literature in very different fields: perception, physiology, devices, programming, mechanical engineering, etc. Of course, it is possible to do this without virtual lectures. But through virtual lectures we can have regular, worldwide access to researchers in those areas, and get to know about their work directly from them. We could make specific questions about it. Or to establish a collaboration with them.

I am interested in becoming involved in the society.
9. Keith Franklin, PhD student, University of Kent at Canterbury,
I was forwarded information
about this new society that you are trying to set up as a point of interest
for my research towards my PhD. I am currently looking in non-visual
visualization and exploration of data
using both sound and haptics. So both my supervisor Jonathan C Roberts and myself would like to join.
However at present due to only being in the first year of my PhD and my supervisor being new to this area as his main interest is simple visualization, both my supervisor and myself think that we would only have enough material to give a single presentation between us. So I would like to know some more information when you decided about the time period.

I would like to join the society as described in your email. It is an excellent idea especially when people like me are the only ones in the field at their respective university.
11. Professor Craig Morrison, Department of Physical Education, University of Southern Utah. Professor Morrison wrote:
Although I do no haptic research at present, I have an interest in the area through my area of research - qualitative analysis of human movement. If I could participate in the society, I would appreciated it.

I will be interested to be involved in the society. My research interests include Haptic interfaces in Microrobotics and Teleoperation.
16. Dr. Jukka Linjama works at the Research and Technology Access group of Nokia Mobile Phones in Finland. He is interested in user interfaces for mobile devices, including "low-fidelity" haptics with low energy and cost, and simple vibrotactile haptic metaphors and solutions.
He also contributed the following suggestions about the rating of lectures and the classification of lecture topics:
1. Review of material. My suggestion to increase the usability and review the lectures is: a voting procedure, direct feedback from peers. If it is simple, just click rating buttons, then people use it and it works.
2. Classification (categories). Also categorisation
of information is important. Again: just click preselected categories
where the presentation belongs to. Also possibility to supply additional
