I have some proprietary code which I wanted to convert
to use kjbuckets (rather than sorted Python lists with
slow pure-Python union and intersection operations).
The code appeared to work fine very briefly, but then
the program started hanging when trying to take the
repr() of a short list of strings. gdb revealed that
it was spending a lot of time trying to append a
366779-character string beginning with a '[' and a nul,
as if the length field of that string object had been
overwritten by a wild pointer.
More detail if I can post this.

The promised additional detail: the application has very
limited interaction with kjbuckets. It is building several
thousand kjSets, each starting with a list of a single
integer, and then adding more integers to them with the .add
method; all the integers are in the range 0 to 60000. The
kjSets vary in final size from one element to several tens
of thousands of elements.
The problem happens even if construction of all these kjSets
is the *only* kjbuckets interaction we have.
This is with Python 2.1.1 on Linux.
The application also uses NumPy and a very small C extension
I wrote, either of which could actually be the culprit;
however, I haven't seen any problems like this before adding
kjbuckets to the mix, and NumPy is very widely used and, I
hope, debugged, while my C extension is very simple and not
likely to be buggy in this fashion.
My guess on the 366779-character string is that it is
actually the "[" string that list_repr uses to produce
representations of lists; because PyString_FromString keeps
a table of all the one-character strings that have been
created, this string has been sitting around for a long
time, so there is a large time window during which it could
have been corrupted.
The application runs under Zope, so I'm not really sure how
to run the actual application under gdb, and unsurprisingly,
if I import and run the same application code in an
interactive Python shell, it doesn't manifest the same
problem. Perhaps the same memory corruption is happening
but affecting something else.
So, anyway, I don't expect anybody to investigate this right
now --- it's not specific enough to be reproducible, and
it's not even certain that it's in kjbuckets. But if
someone runs into this problem in the future, perhaps this
will be helpful.
Logged In: NO
This was all a big mistake. I'm so embarrassed. Resolve
this bug! It wasn't kjbuckets at all.
For those curious about how I could possibly be SO DUMB, the
statements where the program would begin to hang were
actually raising exceptions; Zope was handling them by
generating a traceback in HTML, and rather than the standard
traceback, it was using cgitb to produce a traceback. cgitb
includes abbreviated versions of the repr's of variables
mentioned on any line in the traceback; some of these
variables were NumPy arrays, which have O(N^2) repr
functions. And gdb was showing me only the first character
of the strings --- they weren't the "[" string after all,
but representations of Numeric arrays being built up item by
Hope this is good for a laugh or two. Sorry to have wasted
the time of the Gadfly developers with this bogus bug report.

Eastlake musical goes after stereotypes
April 12, 2014
By Neil Pierson
New: April 12, 11:14 a.m.
When the Eastlake High School drama club takes the stage April 24, it'll be reinforcing some stereotypes about teenagers while breaking down others.
Eastlake's annual spring musical, directed by Rachelle Horner, takes aim at the highly popular and recognizable "High School Musical," a story that gained fame through the Zac Efron- and Vanessa Hudgens-led Disney films of 2006-08.
During rehearsals last week, the 37-member cast – the largest of any production in Horner's five-year tenure – seemed to relish the fact they weren't straying too far from their real-life personas. They're high-school students playing high-school students.
Chandler Gerdes, a junior who stars as basketball team captain Troy Bolton, said the show's common description as a modern-day "Romeo and Juliet" is an apt one. Bolton and the bookishly-smart Gabriella Montez, played by junior Ishanie Choudhury, struggle to develop their relationship and follow their true callings because of peer pressure.
"I think, even though it perpetuates a lot of stereotypical norms … it also shows we can do whatever we want," Gerdes said.
Self-conscious interactions can be common in any high-school environment, and Bolton's character puts them front and center, Gerdes said.
"Even though he's very outgoing and he's accepting to all the new things that are happening around him, he's still an awkward guy," he said.
Ross Coken, a senior, is Bolton's right-hand man in the role of fellow jock Chad Danforth. With the help of Taylor McKessie, played by junior Alanna Martinez, he hatches a plan to keep Bolton and Montez apart for the sake of the basketball team's success.
"All this weird hilarity ensues and then we … realize the error of our ways and we tell our friends that we really shouldn't have done that, that our stuff isn't as important as what they want to do," Coken explained. "We should put the people we care about above ourselves."
Martinez, who is making her stage debut for the Eastlake drama club, said McKessie's character forces her to be outgoing, which may help her overcome a bit of stage fright.
She also believes there are some inherent challenges in doing a show that so many teenagers and young adults have seen.
"It's obviously not Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens up there on stage," Martinez said. "We've tried to embody what Disney really wanted to be the theme, what they wanted to portray, and I think we're doing a pretty good job with that, but it's a little different mostly because we're all high-schoolers and we're currently doing pretty much the same things that (the characters) are."
Horner said several of the cast members have experience with other stage companies. One is currently performing with the Redmond Academy of Theatre Arts, another with a Seattle theater in Oscar Wilde's "The Importance of Being Earnest." Gerdes previously lived in New York City and got into acting because he knew an off-Broadway director.
The long process of perfecting a musical is exhausting, Horner indicated, but also rewarding because she helps develop communication and leadership skills in her students.
"It's very different from teaching my regular class," she said. "I get to know the kids in a very different way, definitely a more personal way outside of their academics, which is really nice."
Coken said he "fell in love with drama" during his days at Inglewood Middle School, and now serves as Eastlake's club president after three years of doing shows.
"I get to be in charge of something I'm absolutely obsessed with," he said.
Choudhury said students should come see Eastlake's performance even if they're already familiar with the story.
"It's 'High School Musical.' It's part of our childhood," she said, "and I just think it would be fun to see people you know bring that to life."

|Appalachian School of Law Shootings
You can see the part of each story below that mentions how Peter O. was captured here, while an index is here
Sat, 19 Jan 2002
Amelia Robinson
DAYTON - The 43-year-old man who is accused of shooting and killing three people and wounding three others at a Virginia law school graduated from Central State University and taught for Trotwood-Madison elementary schools during his days in the Miami Valley.
Peter Odighizuwa graduated from CSU in 1999 with a degree in mathematics, university spokesman Jim Cleveland said Friday.
Also, Trotwood-Madison School District spokeswoman Debbie Clements said Odighizuwa was employed by the district for four days in May 2000 as a substitute teacher at Westbrooke and at Olive Hill elementaries.
The work history of Odighizuwa in the Miami Valley began to be pieced together, one day after he was arraigned on charges of capital murder and attempted capital murder at the Appalachian School of Law, in Grundy, Va. A Buchanan County General District judge has scheduled a preliminary hearing for March 21.
Odighizuwa was a special education substitute at Westbrooke. Clements didn't know what grade he taught at Olive Hill.
A mandatory criminal background check showed no arrest history and his personnel file showed there was no documentation of any problems, Clements said.
"Nobody remembers anything unusual about him or about his character," she said. He had been approved in August to substitute again in the district if needed, Clements said.
"As of this month, he had not been called," she said.
Odighizuwa's wife, Abieyuwa, studied prenursing at Sinclair Community College between spring 1998 and winter quarter 2000, said Gary Honnert, the college's director of public information.
"She was a student in good standing," he said.
Computerized records also revealed that while Odighizuwa lived in the Miami Valley, Springfield police arrested him for speeding on March 26, 1998. He gave a Dayton address of 20 W. Mumma Ave., at the time.
How the violation was dealt with in court was not clear.
The same records search listed Odighizuwa as having a Springfield address, 820 E. John St., Apt. C., in the mid-1990s.
A neighbor there said a photograph of Odighizuwa did not look familiar, although a woman and her son, who would have matched Odighizuwa's age, lived at that apartment within the past eight years.
Odighizuwa and his family moved to Virginia from Ohio in 2000 so he could attend the law school.
Police said Odighizuwa killed the school's dean, a professor and a student Wednesday because he was angry that he had been suspended from school for the second time. He wounded three others in the student lobby of the school's main building.
The three who were wounded remained in fair condition Friday.
Staff writers Mark Fisher and Derek Ali as well as The Springfield News Sun contributed.

The U.S. Congress, in its infinite wisdom, has authorized the transfer from the U.S. taxpayer to the Islamic Brotherhood (our sworn enemy) in Egypt of $2 billion in cash and F-16 fighter aircraft. The fully armed aircraft, and initial payments of cash, have already occurred.
A tornado in Oklahoma caused dozens of American lives to be lost, many of them children. Almost all of the lives lost could have been saved if underground concrete storm shelters had been readily available. Residential tornado shelters cost $5,000 to buy and install. That means 400,000 residential shelters would have been available to U.S. citizens if the $2 billion sent to our sworn enemy had been redirected to constructing storm shelters.
"Fleet Week" in New York City was canceled this year by the U.S. Navy to save $10 million. After repeated deployments to fight Islamic terrorism, a respite in New York City for sailors and Marines is well deserved. If resources for 10 years of "Fleet Weeks" were set aside, i.e. $100 million, from the $2 billion sent to the Islamic Brotherhood, 398,000 residential tornado shelters still could have been built.
Additionally, jobs for American citizens would have been created in the construction and hospitality industries if these resources were invested in the American economy. Instead, our taxpayer dollars went to arm our enemies.

SloWednesday: Backyard Farm
Six years ago, Dan and Margaret Sadicario built a few 4×4 beds that they thought would complement their quaint suburban home. A year later, they changed their minds and began turning the entire quarter-acre plot into a small farm to feed the family, filled with bees, chickens, fruit trees, a wood shed to store wood for heating the home, and rows and rows of raised beds for growing vegetables.
Dan is a high school English teacher, and the couple makes films together (http://vimeo.com/gusandwesproductions) when they're not tending to the garden and, oh yeah, their two wonderful, rowdy boys. The journey has not been easy, but the two are passionate about creating a food system that is healthy and sustainable.
Dan and Margaret have learned a lot of lessons about time management and the pitfalls of starting a "backyard farm" and would like to share them, along with a vision for what they see to be the next phase in today's food revolution.
This SloWednesday will also be the first chance to pick up your garlic for Slow Food St. Louis' Garlic Project. We hope to see you there!

Being the family portrait photographer is a tough gig – there are different relationships, dynamics and personalities to capture and often within a single frame. Polished, professional-looking family pictures that have been creatively crafted are all perfectly posed, and that's what stops them from looking like snaps.
Arranging your family together, choosing where to photograph them, both in the home and out on location sounds a lot easier than it is – as ever the hunt is on for the best light and there are plenty of tricks to get family photos with the poses you've envisaged.
Here top family portrait photographer Brett Harkness shares some of the tips and tricks that keep him in demand with families across the UK.
Image © Brett Harkness
Family Pictures – Tip 1: Use the front door
The best contained lighting you'll get into any home will come from shooting into the building, from outside, with your subject(s) stood three feet back from their front door - move their doormat back and ask them to stand on it.
The darker the door and wallpaper, the better the effect, which closely mimics the effect used for fashion shoots, where they use huge black polyboards.
You need to turn off the lights in the house and underexpose your shot by one or two stops, to retain your skin tones and so that the background gets darker. Shoot with a 70-200mm lens and crop tightly.
Family Pictures – Tip 2: Be early
You can get some great opening shots by turning up early. It takes a considerable about of effort to get a whole family prepared for a shoot. If it's a friend's family, turn up half an hour early and capture some great candids of the kids still in nappies or having their hair brushed. If it's your own family, try snapping while everyone is getting ready.
Family Pictures – Tip 3: Use the parents
When it comes to posing the kids, use the parents… A great trick is to get the child or children in a doorway, or at a window, looking out, and get the parents on the other side entertaining them, and then you can capture the genuine reactions, while having composed the image before hand.
Family Pictures – Tip 4: Incorporate the house and its ambient light
Sometimes it's really nice to incorporate the house you're shooting in and take a few environmental portraits. I recently took a shot of a grandmother, sitting in her armchair, lit by the window and the fire.
Incorporating ambient light sources from the home can work well, as long as your main light source is either flash or daylight. In the winter I'll keep lamps and Christmas tree lights on, in the background of home shoots and throw them out of focus, so they just look like twinkles.
Family Pictures – Tip 5: Identify your centre point
When it comes to posing the whole family together, find a centre point and arrange everyone around it. This could be a meaningful piece of furniture, like 'Dad's chair', or the matriarch of the family, usually the mother. Make sure you shoot with an aperture that's appropriate and gets everybody in focus.
Family Pictures – Tip 6: Don't be rigid
When it comes to posing a family at home, don't be too rigid, otherwise you may as well be shooting them against a white background, in a studio. For example it's not uncommon for me to use the parents as a holding devise for their children who won't keep still otherwise.
If the parent is wearing a dark colour and the child leans against them, the fact that it's a person in the background, not a backdrop, won't be visible in the photo.
Sometimes, having older family members thrown out of focus in the background of child portraits works really well too.
Family Pictures – Tip 7: Use tricks
When shooting whole families together you'll find it's incredibly difficult to get the children to look at you, rather than their parents/siblings/something more interesting. Try getting everyone to look at something – a spider, aeroplane outside, anything.
It's important that your family photos have everyone looking in the same direction, but that doesn't necessarily have to be in your direction.
Family Pictures – Tip 8: Become a bit of a psychologist
Part of being a family photographer is being a bit of a psychologist. I only ever do one family shoot per day, so I take away the time pressure element of the shoot – it takes time to get kids on your side.
Always tackle braver, more confident children first, giving shier ones the chance to see how you work and relax in your presence before you start posing them on their own and as part of group shots.
Family Pictures – Tip 9: Get in the garden
Don't get too formal with your poses and arrangements with the kids – it's important to allow kids to be kids. Get them outside, in the garden, where you can capture them having fun and getting a bit dirty – but do it last!
Family Pictures – Tip 10: Strip it back
When you are shooting children, it's important to get them by themselves – their parent's are paying you to take pictures that they can't get.
Don't force them to smile; allow them to do so when they are ready, or not at all – some of my best shots have been children looking deadpan into the lens – sometimes you really capture the essence of a person this way.
Family Pictures – Tip 11: Show their true age
I find parents love shots which show their kids acting their true age, not how grown up they think they are. Encourage your kids to pull faces – make a game out of the shoot. Series' of pictures showing children pulling faces and laughing work incredibly well and can be timeless reminders of what they were like at that age. Use a 50mm lens for this.
Family Pictures – Tip 12: On the couch
If photographing your baby, a good trick is to push the couch up against a window, open the curtains and turn the lights off. Put the baby on a dark throw or towel, on its back, and underexpose your shot by two or three stops. Lighting the baby using just the window light, with the dark background looks great and mimics the effect of lighting with a giant softbox.
Family Pictures – Tip 13: Use the bathtub
Assuming it's white, the bathtub makes a great place to photograph your small children, as it acts like a huge reflector, while containing the children at the same time.
Family Pictures – Tip 14: Documentary
The home can be a great place for some documentary shots of your family. I recently shot the process of parents getting their kids ready for bed, using a fixed 50mm lens, and produced a very personal set of pictures that my clients loved.
Family Pictures – Tip 15: Change
Make sure you look to change clothes at least once. This change of "look" will give another dimension to the shoot. Then if you want to make several prints from this session, the different outfits will make it look like they were taken on multiple shoots.

Family Pictures – Tip 1: Find the best light
It's all about the light, so when on location think lighting first, background second. Put your hand in front of your face and twirl – see how the light changes the appearance of your hand and the best light makes it look less wrinkled – this is the direction in which you want to shoot your families' faces.
Family Pictures – Tip 2: Keep it fun
Take your family on a walk and stop when you see something interesting that'll make a good background. Remember to keep it fun for them – "Listen to the pixies inside, can you hear them?" is better than "Stand still in front of that garage door".
Family Pictures – Tip 3: Colour and texture
Look for interesting textures and colours that will complement individual family members' hair, clothes etc.
I recently photographed a little boy against the brake light of my Audi – he liked it because he liked the car, and I posed him there as the red matched the red of the toy plane he was carrying. Sometimes you have to think outside the box a little when on location.
Family Pictures – Tip 4: Take a seat
Sit kids who are big enough on the back of benches, with their feet on the seat. This will keep them in position for you. Make sure they are facing good light.
Family Pictures – Tip 5: Posing tool
It goes without saying that you should be using a reflector when shooting out on location. When working with kids, it can become a useful posing tool too – mine is known to become a magic carpet, an island and a boat – this gets kids interested and more importantly gets them to sit on it and keep still…
Family Pictures – Tip 6: Walk the line
Outdoor poses don't have to be regimented. Getting the whole family in a creative shot can be tough, but don't be tempted to line everybody up in front of a wall.
Try asking the family to link arms and walk down a path together, so you can stand back and get some great long shots.
Family Pictures – Tip 7: Think diamonds
Always think triangle and diamond shapes when arranging families – they look much more appealing than other shapes. Sometimes you need to get a bit creative to make these shapes – and don't be afraid to get kids on their dad's shoulders, etc.
Family Pictures – Tip 8: Find your level
Sometimes kids just won't keep still, so shots of the whole family together can be difficult. A good trick in this situation is to bring everyone down to the child's level.
I recently shot a family portrait with everyone crouched around their youngest and it worked really well for that family.
Family Pictures – Tip 9: Give teenagers space
When you are photographing teenagers it pays to give them some space and let them to do their own thing – allow them to feel cool and separated from other siblings. Find a separate area on location just for them – a specific wall or door, anything like that – and get them to strike a pose with that space.
Family Pictures – Tip 10: Separate siblings
A great trick is to get pictures of the kids together but where they are separated by your composition. Look for areas where you can give each child their own space, but include them in the same picture.
I recently shot a brother and sister against a skip, which had a giant 'V' shape and two green triangles either side for the kids to stand against.
Family Pictures – Tip 11: Green green grass
Most photographers will take kids into a field or park to do some poses. On a sunny day this is great to do, but be aware of the green cast that can reflect into the child's face from the grass. Use a reflector to sit the children on to get rid of this unwanted colour.
Family Pictures – Tip 12: Accessorise
If you are shooting out on location then take accessories with you. Hats, umbrellas, favourite toys, bike or ball will all add to amount of poses you can create, as well as helping to keep the child's attention for just a little bit longer.
Family Pictures – Tip 13: Pose for the light
Try and get the sun directly on the back of subjects' heads. This may seem a typical thing to do but is a lot harder than you may think. Having harsh across the face direct light is not flattering and will leave your family photos looking amateurish.
Family Pictures – Tip 14: Mix it up
Change up your lens choice to give a different feeling to the set of images. Sometimes a great wideangle shot will work well alongside my 50mm f/1.2 lens, which gives very shallow depth of field. Not for the faint-hearted, but beautiful when executed well.
Family Pictures – Tip 15: Use puddles
Shots of the kids, or indeed the whole family, are a great way to end a shoot. Joyful, fun pictures like this always look great; just remember to find out which direction the best light is coming from before you suggest it.

I recently had to straighten a whole wedding shoot, as the 'photographer' had not ensured level horizons in his/her viewfinder. This wonky shooting may be trendy now, but will increasingly look odd as time goes by. Think for the next generation but one!

Make yourself a Stamped Fabric Flower Garden from Erin Bassett that will keep you in a sunny mood all year. This easy fabric flower tutorial shows you how to make faux flowers that are totally cushy and adorable. Use a button for the center of each flower, and you'll ratchet up the cuteness of this pattern another notch. Best of all, unlike with real flowers, you aren't limited by conventional colors. If your fabric is so wild that it distracts from the button embellishment, add a small white floral punch to the center of the flower so that the button is more pronounced.
For more beautiful handmade flower projects, check out our collection of 53 Printable Flower Patterns.

Fold the fabric in half with the wrong sides facing each other. and then stamp the fabric with the flowers.
Sew around the edge of the flowers, leaving a little space between the stamped flower and the actual sewing.
Cut out the flower leaving about 1/4" space between the sewing and the cut edge of the flower. Snip a little hole in the back of it and then stuff each petal with stuffing.
Hand sew a flower and button to the flower. I cinched it tightly to give it some tufting.
Stamp a leaf onto green fabric, cut it out, and glue it on the back of the flower.
- Cut out some felt circles to back the flower. Glue the felt circle to the back of the flowers and then glue a pin to the felt.

You wouldn't know it from the way Paul Ryan has been championing retired non-union workers of Delphi Auto, but his potential boss ŌĆō Mitt Romney ŌĆō made a mint off of a hedge fund investment that sent most of Delphi's job overseas and hedge fund principals who blackmailed the government into a huge payoff.
Greg Palast has detailed the ugly story on Truthout (reposted from the Nation). It is also the topic of a United Automobile Workers' (UAW) news conference in Toledo, Ohio, today, as exclusively revealed in a BuzzFlash at Truthout piece by Palast, "UAW Charges Romney With Profiteering From Auto Bailout."
Ryan is claiming to be upset that former non-union Delphi workers are not getting full pensions, which is grotesquely ironic considering Romney made a career of pension destruction that was part of his vulture capitalism formula. Remember also that -- which is Palast's point about Delphi -- the Romneys are still earning more than some 20 million a year in their "retirement" based in large part on investments in firms that cannibalize industry and workers.
Romney's likely multi-million dollar profit is hidden in Ann Romney's so-called "blind trust." In 1994, when Romney ran unsuccessfully against Ted Kennedy for the Senate, Mitt declared: ŌĆ£The blind trust is an age-old ruse.ŌĆØ
The profit from the Romney's Delphi fund investment, through a hedge fund, came about as the result of extorting the federal government, according to Palast's account:
Yet without taking billions in taxpayer bailout fundsŌĆöand slashing worker pensionsŌĆöthe hedge fundsŌĆÖ investment in Delphi would not have been worth a single dollar, according to calculations by GM and the US Treasury.
Altogether, in direct and indirect payouts, the government padded these investorsŌĆÖ profits handsomely. The Treasury allowed GM to give Delphi at least $2.8 billion of funds from the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) to keep Delphi in business. GM also forgave $2.5 billion in debt owed to it by Delphi, and $2 billion due from Singer and company upon DelphiŌĆÖs exit from Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The money GM forgave was effectively owed to the Treasury, which had by then become the majority owner of GM as a result of the bailout. Then there was the big one: the governmentŌĆÖs Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation took over paying all of DelphiŌĆÖs retiree pensions. The cost to the taxpayer: $5.6 billion. The bottom line: the hedge fundsŌĆÖ paydays were made possible by a generous donation of $12.9 billion from US taxpayers.
Of course, once the hedge fund Romney was invested in shook the feds down for billions, they went to work on destroying jobs. Where did they ship most of the work. Why, who would have thunk it? China.
Back to Palast:
Rattner [the auto bailout czar] could not believe that DelphiŌĆÖs managementŌĆönow effectively under the hedge fundersŌĆÖ controlŌĆöwould ŌĆ£want to be perceived as holding GM hostage at such a precarious economic moment.ŌĆØ One Wall Street Journal analyst suggested that Singer was treating Delphi ŌĆ£like a third world country.ŌĆØ Rattner likened the subsidies demanded by DelphiŌĆÖs debt holders to ŌĆ£extortion demands by the Barbary pirates.ŌĆØ
Romney has slammed the bailout as a payoff to the auto workers union. But that certainly wasnŌĆÖt true for the bailout of Delphi. Once the hedge funders, including SingerŌĆöa deep-pocketed right-wing donor and activist who serves as chair of the conservative, anti-union Manhattan InstituteŌĆötook control of the firm, they rid Delphi of every single one of its 25,200 unionized workers.
Of the twenty-nine Delphi plants operating in the United States when the hedge funders began buying up control, only four remain, with not a single union production worker. RomneyŌĆÖs ŌĆ£job creatorsŌĆØ did create jobsŌĆöin China, where Delphi now produces the parts used by GM and other major automakers here and abroad. Delphi is now incorporated overseas, leaving the company with 5,000 employees in the United States (versus almost 100,000 abroad).
There's much more if you read the Truthout and BuzzFlash at Truthout articles that Palast has revealed about the Romney Delphi windfall.
It's lamentable and unwarranted for the Delphi pensions not to be honored, but if the hedge fund investors who benefited from mugging DC for taxpayer dollars were less greedy, it might have gone another way. A deal might have been worked out to honor the pensions in questions, as should have happened.
Once again, however, the 1 percent picked the pockets of the 99 percent, and Romney had a bankroll to deposit in his offshore accounts as a result.

Your Oldsmobile Cutlass water pump may already be flawed-you should confirm to fix the trouble right away and prevent your automotive engine from heating up. The water pump is driven by a belt and makes use of centrifugal force in order to distribute coolant throughout the block to always keep the automotive engine at acceptable temperature level. If there's not enough air going into the grille, your automobile will probably overheat and the interior will not be adequately aired out.
You know your Oldsmobile Cutlass water pump is about to break when you pick up that characteristic squeaking sound that says it needs maintenance and repair. The pump's weep hole is sealed using a gasket, so if this is busted, coolant will drip. When the pump's bearing, gasket, or the pump itself conks out, you'd better stay away from taking your vehicle out for a spin until it is replaced (unless you want to allow the automotive engine to overheat). To prevent the car engine from overheating, it's highly advised that you restore the torn gasket of your water pump or replace the whole unit for your own safety. You must look for a topnotch stock replacement that's specifically designed for your vehicle's engine cooling system for snug fit and great quality.

House Speaker Getting Back to Speed After Surgery
Created by khavens on 4/19/2013 7:14:16 AM
INDIANAPOLIS (WOWO): Republican House Speaker Brian Bosma is getting back up to speed after emergency surgery on his knee. Bosma says his doctor removed 30 staples from his knee on Wednesday during a ``house call'' at his Statehouse office. Bosma missed five days of House sessions earlier this month for the surgical procedure.

The Moody County Museum is getting some special donations today, all thanks to a local World War II vet. We were there as Lloyd Fields handed over his own pieces of history.
"The reports were out, that our 116th infantry was the assault regiment. They had 96-percent casualties on D-Day," World War II Veteran, Lloyd Fields said.
Lloyd Fields knows a thing or two about World War II history. He served 30 months overseas during the war, and arrived on Omaha Beach just three days after D-Day.
"We went across France, Belgium, Holland and Germany to the Elbe River," Fields said.
Fields came back with some souvenirs and stories to go along with them. He recalls German citizens giving up some items for almost nothing to soldiers.
"I suppose they were getting a little antsy about having the field glasses, because they weren't allowed to have anything that was military," Fields said. "I gave a carton of cigarettes for them. For the field glasses."
Today, Fields is donating those field glasses, a German Lugar Pistol and some photos to the Moody County Museum.
Museum Director, Ginger Gaylor, says these items are priceless for educating future generations.
"It makes the events real. Especially for people who weren't alive. The kids who come through here, they love the military exhibit. It makes it alive for them. They realize it's not just a story I heard, it's real," Gaylor said.
When asked what he thinks of kids being interested, Fields isn't so sure.
"Oh I don't know. I would think so. But I hope so anyway," Fields said.
And he's still happy to share the memories, 45 years later.
Fields comes from a family of veterans. Two of his brothers also served in World War II, and he had a younger brother who served in the Korean War.

text: Hi guys! My name is Chris I'm 24 years old and I'm from Melbourne Australia. I have been following builds on this forum for a few years now and thought its about time I shared mine. It's a 1979 Datsun 200b here in Australia and a 810 bluebird in japan. I am the second owner of the car i brought the car in Mid 2009 in factory condition. I have chopped and changed all sorts of different wheels colors and bits and pieces only to be very happy with the way it is now

Initially it seemed that not many pictures were taken of the days in Netscape. But some are starting to come out of the woodwork now….
Month: January 1998
Netscape Alliance / Empire Cast List
A long time ago, in a company which now seems far, far away, Andy Walker took the concept of the (comfortably named) Sun | Netscape Alliance and assembled the following associative work… some of the images have been misplaced over time, but as I get copies I shall restore them. Since that initial foray, several […]

The 14-year-old boy, who was stabbed with a broken glass bottom Thursday while walking home for school, suffered non-life threatening injuries to his abdomen, police said.
The victim was walking home from school at about 3:25 p.m. on the 7400 block of Cielo Vista Drive when another 14-year-old boy allegedly attacked him, police said.
During the attack, the suspect, whose name has not been released, pushed the victim to the ground and stabbed him with what was described as a broken glass bottle, police said. The suspect then fled the scene.
The victim was taken to a local hospital for treatment, police said.
Officers located the suspect at his home and took him into custody. The suspect was released to the Juvenile Probation Department on suspicion of aggravated assault.
No further information has been released.

text: In the months between New Year's and bathing-suit season, you hear a lot about detox diets and how to kick-start weight loss after a few too many indulgences. But the foods you're often asked to eat on those diets are the ones you should actually be incorporating into your meals every day, rather than just for a few weeks or months to shed excess weight. SheKnows.com spoke with Diane Henderiks, RD, aka "The Dietitian in the Kitchen," personal chef, cookbook author and television personality, about making the shift from short-term goals, like fitting into your skinny jeans, to overall healthy lifestyle changes.Read Full Story
