Eibach Performance Suspension System - Poised For ActionWritten by on December 16, 2009 We Install An Eibach Performance Suspension System On Our '09 Dodge Challenger
When it comes to vehicles we've owned, the new Challenger R/T has to be among the best in terms of all-around performance, comfort, and safety. And while the new Dodge Hemi-powered vehicles are no slouches at accelerating, braking, and handling, we have a hard time leaving anything stock, so we're taking advantage of some great aftermarket products to improve our car in each of these areas. This month, we'll be modifying our Dodge Challenger's suspension with new suspension components from Summit Racing Equipment to improve our car's looks and handling.
For a production car, Dodge really nailed the look of the new Challenger, while also building a well-rounded performance automobile. Like most production cars, however, the new Challenger is a compromise between performance and economy, handling and ride quality. Though the Challenger is built with an independent rear suspension, they handle very well for their size. But we felt the car would benefit in a couple of ways from a suspension upgrade.
First, we knew we could significantly improve the handling of our Challenger by adding stiffer springs and installing performance shocks and struts along with larger diameter sway bars. What we didn't want to do, however, was compromise ride quality when we are driving normally. Additionally, we wanted to lower our Challenger about an inch and a half, improving the car aesthetically, while also lowering the center of gravity to further improve handling. Checking Summit Racing's website, we researched what options were available for our Challenger and were pleasantly surprised to learn that even though the Challenger is a new model, Summit already offers an Eibach Pro-System-Plus kit for our car.
While improving handling and reducing body roll typically causes a stiffer ride, the Eibach suspension kit for the new Challenger barely compromises ride quality at all. They accomplish this by using dual-rate coil springs for a soft ride while cruising, with a stiffer rate once the car is put into a corner. These springs combined with Eibach's performance struts up front, and shocks out back, offer better handling, but we didn't notice any discernable change in ride comfort while cruising normally. Also included in the Eibach sport suspension kit are larger diameter sway bars which greatly reduce the big Challenger's tendency toward body roll.
Though technically this project involves bolt-on components, it does require dropping the entire rear suspension to change the rear sway bar so a certain level of mechanical skill is required. The only real specialty tool you'll need is a coil-spring compressor to change the springs. Since the B-3 project was occupying our lift, we enlisted Inline Performance to help us with the suspension upgrade at their new facility. In reality, this project could be accomplished on the driveway with a jack and jackstands, but we really appreciated having the lift to make the job easier. With the assistance of Garret at Inline Performance, we spent about half a day installing our new components and checking wheel alignment. If you're doing this without a lift, however, you should probably give yourself a full day or weekend to accomplish the work.
After lowering the car from the lift, we immediately liked the stance of the car and the way the tires filled the wheel openings in the fenders. Unfortunately, Florida rain showers kept us from performing before and after skid-pad testing, but we have driven the car both normally and aggressively since installing our Eibach Performance Suspension System, and so far we're thoroughly impressed. The car looks much better and is regularly complimented thanks to the approximate 1 1/2-inch lower stance. Additionally, we've noticed that the car handles amazingly as we take the corners on roads we normally drive. There is really no hint of under or over steer, and the car is well-balanced, staying flat with all four tires planted when cornering at speeds high enough to get our adrenalin pumping.
As well as the new Challenger is engineered, the aftermarket seems to keep manufacturing parts that just make it better. We must admit that it's a blast to modify our modern Mopar for improved performance and handling, and appreciate Chrysler for finally building a V-8, rear wheel drive, two-door coupe for us to enjoy. We also appreciate manufacturers like Eibach and Summit Racing for engineering and providing components to help us enjoy our Challenger even more.

The Eibach suspension system comes with new shocks and struts, new dual-rate springs, thicker sway bars, and all the hardware to complete the installation. Summit got our parts to us quickly, and we were impressed with the quality and fit of the new components.In the back, the sway bar runs above the rear subframe and suspension, requiring the exhaust to be removed from the hangers and dropped so that the rear subframe and suspension can be dropped for access. With the car on a lift, we used a jack to support the centersection of the rear end.One of the keys to the Eibach suspension is the set of new front and rear coil springs that come with the kit. These springs not only drop the car about an inch and a half for a more aggressive stance and lower center of gravity, they also provide a more aggressive spring rate for better handling.After removing the four bolts holding the rear frame and suspension to the car, we used the lift to raise the car off of the suspension several inches, giving us access to the rear sway bar. Though dropping the entire rear suspension just to change the sway bar seems extreme, it's really not as difficult as it seems and only took us a few minutes to accomplish.The Eibach rear sway bar is obviously a larger diameter than the factory unit, but otherwise bolts right into place.We disconnected and removed the factory installed front sway bar to make room for the new, stiffer Eibach bar.
With our rear suspension modifications complete, we torqued all of our bolts and moved to the front of the car.Both upper ball joints need to be disconnected so the factory struts can be removed and replaced with the new Eibach performance units.Using a coil spring compressor, the factory front struts are disassembled so the hardware can be used on the new Eibach struts.With our upgrades complete, we bolted the wheels back on and dropped the car onto the alignment pads to check front-end alignment. With the new components, alignment stayed perfect so we were ready for a test drive.With the new Eibach struts assembled, they can be bolted back in place and the upper ball joint can be reinstalled.Notice that as well as being shorter to lower our Challenger. What this picture doesn't show you is that the Eibach spring is a dual-rate coil spring as well, offering a comfortable spring rate for normal driving and a stiffer rate for aggressive cornering.Although the new front sway bar is noticeably larger in diameter than the factory unit, it bolts right into place using the factory provisions. The sway bar comes with new bushings and only takes a few minutes to install.Pulling out of the shop, we immediately liked the look of our Challenger with its new lower stance. Notice how the tires fill the fender openings now for a better stance and more intimidating, aggressive look. Though Florida rain showers have so far kept us from real track testing, we can tell you that our suspension upgrades greatly improved our car's aesthetics and handling without sacrificing ride quality at all. This is a gratifying weekend project that you'll see every time you look at your new Challenger and feel every time you drive your car through the corners.

Video: GSA Chief Answers 9 Wants To Know Investigation
WASHINGTON, DC (WUSA) - Whether it was mystery illnesses at a regional headquarters, the controversial quarter-million dollar PR contract to deal with my investigation there, or the $30 million in unreported bonuses at the General Services Administration, the Acting Administrator remained on point and not defensive during an unscheduled one-on-one interview Monday.
Acting Administrator Dan Tangherlini started off the exchange by greeting me by name and affirming what 9 Wants to Know has already exposed in its ongoing investigation into GSA.
"I appreciate the great reporting you've been doing," Tangherlini said. "I think that you know, you've been raising very important issues actually you've been using some of the information to help us find out what the solutions are that we need to implement with the new organization."
High ranking staff at GSA had e-mailed 9 Wants to Know complaining our coverage was unfair.
"The bonus issues you raised, we agree, those are worthy of a deep dive inspection," Tangherlini said. "As I've said, we've cut our SES bonuses by 85% this year."
The Acting General Services Administration Administrator also suspended performance awards and, in the hearing, he said all bonuses are being reviewed to ensure they are directly related to performance.
Previously, the Office of Personnel Management had reported GSA's total annual bonus pool as a little over $13 million.
A Freedom of Information Act request by WUSA9 obtained documents showing the annual bonus at over $44 million - a difference of over $30 million dollars that had never been disclosed.
"I'm not exactly sure what led to the discrepancy in the data between us and OPM," Tangherlini said. "What I'm interested in is what is the correct number. What are the policies that we have and how do we fix the problems"
A GSA spokeswoman blamed it on the Office of Personnel Management. OPM says it purposely redacted some bonuses because of privacy policies.
During the exchange in a Dirksen Senate Building hallway, we also asked him about the unexplained illnesses we exposed at a regional GSA headquarters and a commissioner there accused of wrong doing.
"I haven't been to Kansas City in part because I've been trying to minimize the amount of travel I do. I have met with the Region 6 staff," Tangherlini said. "I am aware of the issues out there. I do want to go out and learn more about it, but I also know we're leaving that facility."
We asked him specifically about the Kansas City regional commissioner Mary Ruwwe, who received bonuses despite hiring a quarter-million dollar PR firm to respond to my investigation and allegations of misleading Congress.
In Monday's hearing the Inspector General called the commissioner out of control.
"I'm not even going to try to defend what happened with that PR contract or any of those issues out there," Tangherlini said.
Throughout the conversation, Tangherlini stayed on point, saying he's at GSA to identify and fix problems and they've already made progress.

Dennis Rodman has vowed never to return to North Korea following his controversial visit in January.
The former basketball star has struck up a friendship with the country's dictator Kim Jong-un and during his trip earlier this year he was caught on camera singing "Happy Birthday" to him.
Rodman's trip sparked a wave of criticism and he checked into rehab upon his return to the U.S.
PHOTOS: Dennis Rodman through the years | Dennis Rodman's North Korea basketball game and birthday party
The sports icon has now given an emotional interview in which he declares he will never return to North Korea.
Rodman is seen with tears rolling down his face as he tells ESPN, "What makes me so damn bad? What makes me this bad, awful person?… I don't want people to look at me as the devil or evil person. If I put anyone in harm's way, I apologize, you know… If you don't want me to go back there ever again, I won't go back."
When asked about his stint in rehab, Rodman insists he didn't enroll in the program to address a drinking problem, but instead wanted to "decompress from all the things I was going through". He claims he will return for treatment every six months "to see where I'm at".

An open mind to Romney, but he didn't measure up
(Page 2 of 2)
At one time in his life, Romney was pro-choice, even contributing to Planned Parenthood. Now he opposes abortions for women except in the case of rape, incest or if the mother's life is in danger. His running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, has temporarily embraced Romney's views, but has sponsored legislation to have life declared to take place at the moment of conception. Romney seems to cling to the idea that a woman's place is in the home, an idea that dates back decades.
Like him or not, Vice President Joe Biden is a representative of middle America. He speaks loudly for the values of the struggling middle class. Romney's choice of Ryan is frightening for this country. Ryan has already proven that he favors the dismantling of Medicare and every program that helps the little people. With such great possibilities as Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels or Gov. Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota, Romney chose the Neanderthal, Ryan.
So maybe Barack Obama is no longer the knight in shining armor that we expected. But I know he's done a lot of good things to bring us back from the brink of disaster. He genuinely cares about the middle class that made my political career possible. In my mind, whatever Obama has done over the past three-plus years will no doubt bring new dividends in the next four years.
I started out this election cycle thinking that Romney might be a good alternative to Obama. Instead he turned out to be the worst possible choice for the America I love.

Pierce had a great game tonight! His stat line, an impressive 27-pts, 14-rebs, and 14-assists! Even more impressive, Pierce recorded this triple double at 35-years of age!
The stat line made me wonder, who was the oldest player in the NBA to record a triple-double? The answer, Karl Malone!
"The oldest player to record a triple-double in NBA history is Karl Malone, who had a triple-double when he was 40 years and 127 days old. To date, Karl Malone is the only NBA player over the age of 40 to record a triple-double. Malone had 10 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists. Remarkably, Karl Malone recorded the triple-double while only playing 26 total minutes in the game."

Hey Guys,
Just wondering if anyone has been able to get Outlook 2013 Preview to to connect to Zimbra natively via the new "ActiveSync service" account type that is in this version?
We are running a Zimbra 7.1 server and when I try it I just get an error saying "The EAS server cannot be found".
Can connect fine however using the new Windows 8 Preview Mail App which also support ActiveSync. So was wondering if there is so something different between the ActiveSync in Outlook 2013 Vs. Windows 8?

Social Referrals Save Companies Time and Money
Recruiters across industries know that referrals generally deliver the best candidates, and now thanks to social media sites, they are cheaper and easier to find.
If you are recruiting for one of the hot tech companies in Silicon Valley, chances are you are looking to your employees to find the best candidates.
"Up to 50 percent of all the employees these companies hire are through referrals," says Valerie Frederickson, CEO of Valerie Frederickson & Co., an information technology recruiting firm in Menlo Park, California, in the heart of Silicon Valley. "Good referrals are worth their weight in gold."
Silicon Valley isn't alone. One-third of recruiters say being referred by a friend or colleague sets a candidate apart, according to a survey of 1,500 global recruiters by Bullhorn, a software recruiting company.
Recruiters across industries know that referrals generally deliver the best candidates, and now thanks to social media sites, they are cheaper and easier to find.
"Referrals are the highest-rated source of new hires," says Dan Finnigan, CEO of Jobvite Inc., a social recruiting company based in Burlingame, California. "If your objective is to hire the highest-quality people as quickly as possible and to spend as little as possible, referrals are the way to do it," he says.
But getting great referrals is not as simple as sending an email to employees and asking for suggestions. The best companies take advantage of social media sites to talk about the corporate culture as well as the jobs, and they make it as easy as possible for employees to share opportunities across their network.
Fresh & Easy Neighborhood Market Inc., a West Coast grocer with 5,000 employees, sends weekly updates to its employees about new job openings. It actively promotes its career opportunities on Facebook, Flickr, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Twitter to make sure employees and their followers are aware of the latest openings.
All of the postings link back to the company's career page, which features Q&As with employees, company blogs, and fun facts about the workplace along with job listings. There is also a link to Fresh & Easy's YouTube career channel, where job seekers can find training content, interview tips and employee videos, including one titled "Why We Love Working at Fresh & Easy."
"We have such a unique workplace culture, but you don't see it until you start working here," says Emma Weare, Fresh & Easy's recruitment and systems director. She believes the career site and YouTube channel give potential employees a sense of the workplace environment so they are better informed before they apply.
Social media sites have become a vital tool for recruiters who want to tap into the broader networks of their employees and to home in on higher-quality candidate pools.
According to a survey by Dimensional Research and SuccessFactors Inc., social media and mobile devices are being used by 39 percent of HR leaders to communicate with job candidates. Similarly, PricewaterhouseCoopers' 2012 Business Insights Survey of Canadian companies, showed 34 percent plan to use social media for recruiting because it allows them to take a targeted approach to finding the right talent and speaks directly to younger workers.
Companies like Fresh & Easy are already seeing measurable benefits from their investment in social recruiting and referrals, both in the quality and cost of their new hires. According to Jobvite's 2012 Social Recruiting Survey, 43 percent of respondents said the quality of applicants has improved thanks to social recruiting, and 20 percent said it takes less time to hire.
It also costs less to hire an employee through social recruiting compared with more traditional recruiting methods because companies require fewer recruiters and less advertising, and they can tap into higher-quality candidate pools, Finnigan says.
At Fresh & Easy, social media has enabled the HR team to manage all recruiting internally, even as the company grows, and they spend no money on agencies or career sites. "The great benefit of social media for recruiting is that it's free," Weare says, "And it gives you a great way to creatively build your brand."

I just upgraded from M2 all the way to 3.0.1. It went quite smooth and I was pleasantly surprised by how well it worked. Everything was retained from configuration to mailboxes. I've logged in and made sure I'm still getting mail. Nice!
Unfortunately I have one fairly significant problem which appears to have come about from the upgrade:
I noticed that the CPU was pegged, thats strange, I checked and it was mysqld. Okay, its gotta be rebuilding something from the upgrade. I checked again about an hour later and its still pegged. I thought it strange, so I dug around a little more and found that the file logger_myslow.log has grown significantly, about 4 MB in the last hour. Sure enough the process thats killing the cpu is tied to the perl monitor process.
Looking at the log I'm a little baffled. This perl process appears to poll the database every 5 seconds for information about the disk drives? It looks like the table has about a half million rows and is growing by 3 rows every 5 seconds or so.
Is this intentional or is something broken?
If its broken, how can I fix it?
Is this table indexed properly?
Is this level of granularity needed? I'm willing to accept a 5 minute instead of 5 second granularity. Can I tune this somehow to not cause this level of load just to monitor for free space?

A Q&A with the insiders behind your favorite brands.
Celeste Hilling
CEO and Founder
Skin Authority
Skin Authority is a "Healthy Skin Lifestyle" company, offering results-driven products, expert coaching and guidance, and accessible price points. Their mission is to educate, equip, and empower individuals with the tools and support they need to achieve a lifetime of optimal skin health and beauty.
My passion driver was to put great skin health options within reach of everyone. I envisioned Skin Authority as THE healthy skin lifestyle company. This meant delivering innovative products which produce immediate results combined with easy accessible skin care coaching to insure the best product selection and daily guidance to achieve optimum beauty and skin health. To start that journey, I opened spas in Southern California which functioned as our 'living lab' and allowed me to understand first-hand the unique skin care needs of a very diverse consumer demographic, as well as test skin care technologies and customers service approaches. Skin Authority was born out of that experience. We think being hands-on with skin care is critical to understanding the needs of consumers.
I am very proud of our SGF-4 Technology™ and VitaD Fortified™ Technology.
SGF-4 Technology™ includes our star product – Wrinkle Reversing Serum. It taps the power of four completely natural body proteins clinically proven to restore the body's ability to generate healthy, new skin cells and strengthen its immune defense against further deterioration. I love the fact that the products create an immediate cosmetic change while transforming the underlying depleted, damaged cells to a restored, youthful state. The other products in the SGF family are Dramatic Eye Lift and Moisturizing Lift Cream.
VitaD Technology™ - Vitamin D is a fundamental building block of essential health and the new VitaD Fortified Illuminating DUO infuses Vitamin D health and beauty from the inside out. The DUO offers people a first-of-its kind whole food source of Vitamin D for a complete 'nutrition sandwich' of an external Vitamin D Elixir and a powder which adds your daily dose of Vitamin D in any food or drink you consume. Skin Authority partnered with Dole Nutrition Institute in creating the technology. We took Skin Authority's topical expertise and combined it with Dole's nutrition expertise. The DUO is the first in a series of partnerships that take nutrition from the table to the cosmetic counter.
I am constantly inspired by my daughter Kirsten. She gives fresh eyes to the world and helps me think that anything is possible. Children have a great way of not knowing fear or failure, which is so inspiring.
I love Kerastase hair products. I also enjoy Jo Malone Vanilla and Anise fragrance and the simplicity of Bobbi Brown cosmetics.
Health is the new beauty. Beauty is a key part of a healthy lifestyle. At Skin Authority, we view commitment to a daily skin care routine as seriously as the benefits of a daily workout. That is why we developed and trademarked the Beauty Workout. The products used in the steps of our daily routine achieve similar levels of improvement: Resurfacing is the 'cardio' of skin, (speed up skin's metabolism), SGF and Peptides are the 'weight training' to firm, tighten, and lift, our topical antioxidants infuse 'nutrition' and stress reducing ingredients 'balance' mind and body for clear skin. When the steps are done consistently, the result is a lifetime of healthy radiant skin!
Shop for beauty and skin care products like you shop for food. Think cost per ounce. Don't judge the volume of skin care by how the packaging appears. Look at the volume on the label and calculate the cost per ounce. When you see a product that is $19.99, you may think it is a bargain. But the package may contain .02 of an ounce in product. When you multiply $19.99 x 5, that's actually $100 for one ounce. So the key is to seek the right ingredients for your need as that is always the better value.
Apply topical Vitamin C under your sunscreen daily to boost UV defense! @MissSkin and @SkinAuthority

The main town in the province of the same name, Utrecht is a lively place. Its maze of steets still maintains a certain intimacy and its many historic buildings bear witness to the rich history of the town. The picturesque quays of Utrecht, located below street level, allow cafés to set up their terraces there from the first rays of the sun. Utrecht is also a religious metropolis (the Catholic Primate of the Netherlands lives there), an intellectual (university) and a business centre.

text: By Christy SheetsSports WriterWallace TriangularBrady The Wallace Wildcats competed in the Wallace Triangular on Tuesday, Sept. 25. The Cats' first opponent was the Brady Eagles. The Lady Wildcats started out a bit timid in the first set, but they stepped it up a bit in the second. Unfortunately, a determined Eagles team battled to win the match in two, 12-25, and 18-25. Leading the team offensively against the Eagles was Sara Hubbard with three points. Anna Griffiths (one ace), Christina Daniels (one ace), and Abbey Rohde each had two points, and Chelsea Sowle and Alex Lundvall each with one point. Leading the team with set assists was Lundvall with five, followed by Rachel Marquardt with three, Griffiths and Hayley Storm each with one. Defensively, Daniels had five kills and one block, Sowle had five kills, and Marquardt had one block. Wallace vs.Maywood The Lady Cats then had to face the Maywood Tigers. The cats won this match in straight sets 25-13 and 25-19. In striking contrast to the first match, the Cats were ready for the Tigers, taking the early lead. The Tigers made every effort to fight back, but the Cats dominated the first set 25 to 13. The second set saw a livelier Tiger team. Both teams rallied and tried to build momentum, but it was the Cats that finally broke the set open. The Tigers worked hard to make something happen, but the Lady Cats won the second set and the match 25 to19. When asked for a comment on the night, Coach Strand said, "Our passing was much better in the second match." She added, "We still need to work on talking more. When we are talking and working together, we are hard to beat." Leading the team offensively against Maywood was Daniels with 10 (two aces), followed closely by Rohde (four aces) with eight. Hubbard had five points (one ace), Lundvall had four points, Griffiths (one ace) had two points, and Sowle had one point. Leading the team with set assists was Lundvall with seven, followed by Marquardt with four, Griffiths with three, and Hubbard with one. Defensively, Daniels led the team with seven kills, followed by Sowle with five kills and one block. Rohde had three kills and one block, and Hubbard had one kill.Wallace vs Brady On Friday night, the Wildcats traveled to face the Brady Eagles for the second time in a week. The Wallace Lady Cats were looking for revenge and fought to defeat the Eagles in five sets 17 to 25, 25 to 18, 18 to 25, 27 to 25, and 15 to 11. In the first set, the Lady Cats started out a bit flat, forcing the Wallace coaches to make several early substitutions. As the set progressed, however, the Wildcats started to gain some momentum. Unfortunately, for the Cats it was a little too late, and the Eagles took the first set, 17 to 25. In the second set, the Lady Cats were ready to rally. Brady tried to pound everything at the Cats, but the Wildcats refused to let anything hit the court, diving and digging everything up. Senior Chelsea Sowle stepped up to the service line, and had nine unanswered points to give the Cats a huge lead. The Lady Cats were poised to win the second set, and had set point at 24 to 13, but it was the Eagles' turn to rally back with five unanswered points. Once again Sowle stepped up to slam the ball to the court, and the Lady Cats won the second set 25 to 18. In the third set, the Eagles, based on their rally late in the second set, started out strong. The Cats continued to work hard, and refused to let down, but Brady continued to build momentum. The Eagles won the third set 18 to 25. In the fourth set, both teams battled back and forth. Wallace continued to dig up everything, and Brady continued to hit hard. Brady took the early lead, but the Wildcats rallied back to tie the match at 22, and force the Eagle bench to call a time out. The Wildcats took the lead 23 to 22, but the Eagles rallied to take the lead 24 to 23. A net serve allowed the Cats to take a breath and regain the lead 25 to 24. The Eagles got the ball back to tie it at 25, but the Cats refused to stop fighting. The Wildcats won the fourth set to stay in the match 27 to 25. In the fifth set, the Lady Cats took the early lead, but the Eagles came racing back to overtake the Cats. A well placed time out, and a never-give-up attitude allowed the Lady Cats to retake the lead. The Wildcats were determined, and won, in the best match of their season thus far, 15 to 11. When asked about the game, Coach Strand said, "Finally, we played how I knew we could. The girls played very well against a tough Brady team." She added, "We played great defense, and worked to get our offense clicking. The girls played smart, and worked together." Offensively, Sowle led the team with 19 points (five aces), followed by Hubbard (two aces) with eight points. Daniels (one ace), Mickayla Sheets, and Rohde each had five points, and Lundvall (two aces) and Griffiths each had four points. Leading the team with set assists was Lundvall with 19, followed by Griffiths with nine, Katelyn Melton and Marquardt each with five, Daniels with four, and Hayley Storm with one. Leading the cats defensively Friday night was Daniels with 13 kills and two blocks, followed closely by Rohde with 12 kills and one block. Sowle had seven kills and two blocks, Hubbard had seven kills, and Melton had two kills and two blocks.Next Action On Thursday, Oct. 4, the Cats will host South Platte, and on Friday, Oct. 5, the Lady Cats will host Hitchcock County.

NEW YORK (AP) - Markel Starks scored 23 points and Georgetown beat No. 11 UCLA 78-70 in the semifinals of the Progressive Legends Classic on Monday night at the Barclays Center, spoiling the college debut of Shabazz Muhammad.
Otto Porter had 18 points, 11 rebounds and five assists for the Hoyas (3-0), who will face No. 1 Indiana in Tuesday night's championship game. The Hoosiers beat Georgia 66-53.
The Hoyas opened the second half on a 12-0 run - with Greg Whittington hitting two 3s - to take a 43-29 lead, their biggest of the game.
The Bruins (3-1) were within 59-53 on a 3-pointer by Norman Powell. But the Hoyas went on a 7-1 run that was capped by a hook shot by Nate Lubick with 6:17 to go. The Bruins did get within 77-70 on a 3 by Muhammad with 50 seconds to play.

text: Interview: David Blaine preps for Electrified by getting hit with Tesla Coil currents Culture 05 October 12 by Liat Clark How does David Blaine prepare in the days before being encircled by one million volts of electricity, emitted by seven Tesla Coils, for 72 hours. Only by getting hit in the back of the head by said electric surge of course."So in the last rehearsal the visor that they put into the helmet to protect my eyes from the UV electromagnetic radiation -- which will cause corneal abrasions and possible blindness -- was put in wrong," Blaine told Wired.co.uk, the night before the Electrified stunt's 5 October launch at Pier 54 in New York. "So when I lowered it, it snapped on my nose drawing some blood, and then my head jolted backwards and touched the actual wired helmet, which is pretty exposed. The electricity arc hit me right in the head, almost knocking me out so we had to shut it all down". The jolt left a bloody mark, but no Harry Potter lightning bolt scar, sadly.And what does it feel like to get sucker punched by a Tesla Coil? According to Blaine, "like somebody is punching you as hard as they can at the back of your head". "Normally when I get electric shocks [an everyday hobby for us too, Blaine] it's usually some sort of magic trick and it's a shock. But this was different."The stunt will be Blaine's reprisal of the endurance feats he's best known for, the last one being his 2009 Dressed for Dinner dive with great white sharks (for your day's bizarreness-hit, check out this clip of Blaine puffing down on a Cuban while monsters from the deep circle him). From 7.30pm on 5 October the magician will stand atop a six-metre-high platform, wearing a 12.25 kg chainmail Faraday bodysuit and helmet that conducts the electricity, thus protecting him from the volts. Aside from the visor he'll also have noise-cancelling headphones to protect him from the noise, a tube to suck water through and a catheter to urinate.According to his doctor, Stuart Weiss, the main danger (aside from someone putting him in mortal danger by fitting the suit/helmet incorrectly again) will be exposure to the nitrous oxides produced by the plasma (generated by the electricity separating electrons and positive ions in the air). He does, however, also have a ventilation system so he should always be breathing fresh oxygen. So, really, since all possible dangers have been taken care of, what it comes down to is: can he stand still for 72 hours?"Part of it is actually what you're saying -- standing in one place without sleeping, no food, wearing 27 pounds of chainmail and trying to make it through that," Blaine told Wired.co.uk. "The other part is that it's an environment we normally shouldn't be in. It's like when I did the dive with great white sharks -- you're in this part of nature where you don't belong, and the brain sends signals saying you shouldn't be here. But, at the same time, it's beautiful and intimidating. Anybody can do these things -- it's just for how long."It would be really effective as torture -- keeping somebody awake for 72 hours, extremely loud noise, extremely bright lights breaking the circadian rhythm, plus standing on a small pillar, plus no food. Psychologically you have to override something to get through it, but we all could."Beyond the spectacle and drama of it all, the project stems from Blaine's desire to instill the pure sense of wonder, fascination and curiosity that science and art instilled in him as a child."My mother was a teacher and when she wanted to show me art and literature and science, she'd take me to museums, parks and free exhibitions. That's what I like about doing things in New York -- you give it for free and then kids can come and see it like I did."I used to go to Coney Island and see somebody doing something that was unexplainable or unique, and I would wonder about it, which led me to find people like P T Barnum and Houdini. In a strange way, I'm trying to recreate that same thing that made me imagine or wonder as a little boy. Somebody who wants to see something different, interesting, scientific or mystifying can come look and then ask questions -- research is so easy on the internet, now you can find out what a Tesla Coil is, alternating currents, a faraday suit."This is where the coil's inventor, Nikola Tesla, comes in -- Blaine describes him as a "Ben Franklin kind of a guy" who "created reality out of impossible ideas and invented things that people thought would never exist".Tesla had been on Blaine's mind for a while, appearing on a poster commemorating a decade of his endurance feats along with four other historical figures he admires. "He was always in the background, I just wasn't sure what to do. I started thinking about ways to create something that was similar to that plasma ball I loved when I was a kid, where the electricity goes to my finger when I touch it. So I decided to make a big version using seven Tesla Coils around the perimeter of the sphere, then they would shoot into the middle." Read page 2 12 Read on one page Latest on wired.co.uk

Don't worry though, we have a lot more Wheel Small Parts in stock than that.View Similar Products
Easton R4SL Cassette Body $0.00
Shaving grams can be an addiction. If light is what you're after Easton's R4 SL Freehub Body is perfect for a quick fix. The R4 SL Freehub is compatible with Easton's R4 and R4 SL hubs. It's been "tuned" by way of the CNC machine. They mill away enough material (mostly extra splines) to save up to 22 grams over the R4 Freehub Body.
One of the beautiful things about Easton wheels is that a switch from Campagnolo to Shimano or SRAM componentry or vice-versa won't necessitate a new wheel purchase. You could just replace the freehub with one that is compatible with your new gear. Likewise, if you routinely use two different cassette ratios depending on your race courses, you might think about a spare freehub body. It's actually quicker and easier to remove the whole freehub body (cassette and all) with two 5mm hex keys than it would be to fumble with a chainwhip, lockring tool, and wrench to remove and swap cassettes.
The Easton R4 SL Freehub Body also includes ceramic bearings. It's compatible with all EC90 and EA90 wheelsets and is available in three versions:
- Compatible with EC90 Aero, EC90 TT, EC90 SLX, EA90 SL, EA90 TT and EA90 Aero wheels
- Only available Shimano 10-speed, Campagnolo 9/10/11, and SRAM Powerdome

As usual a fine map!
Really nice! Too bad it's small, couldn't see much details...
Thanks guys. Depassage - that's the price of showing commissioned work unfortunately.
Here's a close up of a section to give you a little more of the detail:
Djekspek - thanks. It was an interesting challenge for this commission that lasted for over a year, to have a consistent look and feel throughout. This is probably the most different of all the pieces, but it's so clearly a different format to the other maps that I could get away with it.
Thanks for sharing some details. I fully understand copyrighted material issues.
I was expecting a Deadlands map when I clicked the link!
I love the detail in the close up and the linework is beautiful as always.
Beautiful mountains - but terrible mountain ranges, for the most part.
The map key is wonderful! It truly is.
The map displays no real appreciation for water, nor for the role of water in this land, it seems.
I like the forests - I think. You need to post a larger image, to facilitate others looking at it and critiquing it for you.
The color scheme is beautiful. I have mixed feelings about the icons on the map.
Overall, the map looks cluttered. It's a beautiful map, color-wise, but it comes across as terribly cluttered. I love the forests. My eye keeps getting drawn back to them. Beautiful shade of green that you went with for the forests, and a lovely little style that you use with drawing them.
The outer edge of the map is a good concept, but poor implementation of the frayed look. Too many cuts in the edge, and they seem to be spaced pretty regularly. Inconsistency in the edge gaps would be better, I think. They look too planned, here.
I don't like the little black location squares.
Your use of text on the map is done in a way that detracts from the overall beauty of the map. On the artistic standpoint, you possess a certain mastery. On the text placement, it is rather amateurish, by comparison. The standard fare straight text on the left side in several instances makes for the worst offenders on the human eye. On the right hand side, you made better use of text curves. Overall, you don't make any real use of text that follows terrain across a vast distance. The Field of Doors is probably the single best example of this concept confined to a rather limited area. Your failure to do it ultimately makes the map seem to cover a smaller area than my mind seems to want to come to grips with.

Madrid, Spain (Sports Network) - Former champion Rafael Nadal was an
easy third-round winner Thursday at the $4.425 million Madrid Open, an ATP
Masters event.
The fifth-seeded former world No. 1 star cruised past Russian veteran Mikhail
Youzhny 6-2, 6-3 in 75 minutes on Day 5 on the red clay at The Magic Box.
The hot Nadal is now a dazzling 28-2 this season and seeking a fifth title in
his seventh tournament. He titled in Barcelona just two weeks ago, reaching a
sixth final in six tries.
The reigning French Open king is a two-time Madrid titlist and two-time
runner-up in the Spanish capital.
Meanwhile, last year's Madrid runner-up Tomas Berdych moved on with a 7-6
(7-5), 7-5 victory over big-serving South African Kevin Anderson.
Berdych lost to Swiss icon and three-time Madrid champ Roger Federer in last
year's finale.
Also on Thursday, wild card Pablo Andujar was tied with fellow Spaniard Daniel
Gimeno-Traver 5-5 in the first set when Gimeno-Traver retired from their bout.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Troy Brouwer scored two goals and Braden Holtby stopped 27 shots and assisted on Brouwer's second goal and the Washington Capitals shut out the Florida Panthers 5-0 in the opener of a home-and-home series Saturday night.
Mathieu Perreault and Joel Ward each added a goal and an assist, and Alex Ovechkin also scored for Washington (3-8-1), which snapped a three-game losing streak.
It was the first time Washington has scored more than three goals in a game this season.
The two teams play at Florida (4-6-1) on Tuesday.

Bishop Donahue will begin the 2012 boys track and field season missing three high-profile performers who all picked up diploma's last spring, however, all is not lost for the Bishops who have plenty of athletes and a new head coach to pick up the pieces.
Trent Krupica, a former Donahue runner, takes over the reins of the program and will be looking to keep the McMechen school as competitive as it has been in recent campaigns.
That will have to happen without a very talented trio that included David Beiter, Bobby Richmond and Andrew Barrows.
Senior Captain, and hurdling standout, Tyler Zahnow, will be relied upon to get things going for Donahue. Zahnow was fifth in both the 110 highs and 300 intermediate hurdles a season ago in Charleston and will also lead the shuttle hurdle unit.
Jordan Bonar, a standout running back on the football team, is a newcomer to the team and will run sprints and the shuttles.
Other first time track participants will include Lavonate Hampton, Josh Miller, Saquan Hill, Billy Baurle and Dalton Lantz, all who could make an immediate impact.
That group will all be sprinters and help fill relay spots.
Gabe Mickey and David Beazel will be the top distance runners, both taking part in the 3,200, 1,600 and 800 with Justin Horan running the 800 and 400. Sophomore Jacob Zombeck has also been a surprised and will compete.
Others who will contribute include Cole Koontz, Bo Campbell and Geno Aquino.
"I believe we are going to surprise a lot of teams," Krupica said. "We have good team speed, even with our youth and also some nice athleticism.
Krupica will also be guiding the girls' team, which he believes could very well be one of the best the Bishops have had in quite some time.
Senior Sara Trader is the team Captain and will be a force in the 400, 800 and the distance relays. Joining her for distance events will be senior Catherine Breault and freshman Rebekah Trader along with Aggie Holiday, Kenadee Kleeh and Avi Wu.
Elaysia Hill is just a sophomore, but finished sixth in the 100 at the state meet last year and nearly qualified for the 100.
A pair of high-quality hurdlers are available in Lexi Tweedlie (300, 100 highs, shuttles) and Elizabeth Potts, who could also run sprints. Other hurdlers include Haley Zahnow, Shannon Barrows, Jillian Edge and Loran Clayton.
The Beiter sisters, senior co-Captain Sarah and Becky both qualified for the state meet in the shot put and discus and return this season in the weight events, in which Krupica feels the Bishops will score points. Bobbi Fahey brings depth in the events.
''My expectations are very high,'' Krupica said. "We want to win the OVAC Class A meet, a Mason Dixon championship and be competitive in the regional and get as many to Charleston as possible.
''I will really be pushing these athletes to put their best efforts forward because I believe if they do that this could really be a season for them, and Bishop Donahue to remember.''
Coach Leslie Lively and his boys' squad are another team that has made some noise the last few seasons, and return some fine athletes for this campaign.
Leading the way will be senior speedster Casey Pingley, who captured the 100-meter dash state championship a season ago in Class A and was second in the 200.
Pingley was also part of the Lumberjacks' 400 and 800-meter sprint relay units that advanced to the Charleston.
The remaining senior quartet will also be looked upon for big things in Dylan Edgell, Clay Ueltschy, Joey Hayhurst and Jon Smallwood. Both Edgell and Ueltschy competed in the state meet in 2011 while Hayhurst will throw the discus and shot put.
Smallwood and Josh Baker will fill spots in the two shorter sprint relays, but will also mean a lot more to the team as well.
Junior Spencer Mason has his sights set on the school record in the shot put and will be looked upon to help grow up-and-coming throwers Wesley Dulaney, Russell Stout and Jack Wells.
Troy Hubbard, Chuck Roberts, Brett Christensen and TC Long will be the distance runners, and lead a very competitive 3,200 unit. Chase West, Nathan Arnolds, Jack Wells and Wesley Dulaney will also run distance.
Freshman Trey Smith will help the hurdlers, that include Ueltschy, Troy Hubbard, Caleb Norris and Edgell.
"The coaches and team are very optimistic heading into the upcoming season," Lively said. "With very few seniors lost from the program and some real nice returnees, the ability for a big season is there."
Lively is also very happy with a generous donation from the Mike McGuane Foundation that has allowed the track team to purchase a new pole vault pit, high jump pit, uniforms, hurdles, shots, training equipment, starting blocks and a protective storage building.
Deb Kocher's Lumberjills will also benefit from all of the new equipment as the girls' team continues to rebuild for the 2012 campaign.
Paden City
First-year girls' coach Jay Salva is dealing with youth, and just 11 athletes, but still believes that his team has the ability to make some noise as the season goes on.
The only senior on the roster is Taylor Parsons, who Salva believes is one of the best hurdlers in the entire valley. He will also count heavily on his two juniors Lynnsie Parson, who is multi-dimensional and will be used in a number of different events, and Logan Cosper in sprints and relays.
Josie Fox is the team's only sophomore and will also be called upon in sprints, hurdles and relays.
A large freshman group includes Kayla Hizer, another athlete who will be utilized everywhere, Haley Hizer (shuttles, 400, long jump), Cierra Yoho (distance), Mallory Estel (shot put, middle-distance), Megan Pierce (hurdles, field events), Sadie Helmick (shot put, discus) and Jennifer Dahms (sprints, long jump).
Taylor Parsons, a well-decorated hurdler, and Joni Myers were lost from last season.
"I honestly expect success," Salva mentioned. "It should be an exciting season in which we will be doing the pole vault for the first time in a very long time.
"We are very strong in hurdles and sprints and Taylor Parsons works so hard and is so determined. Lynnsie Parsons and Logan Cosper should also score us some points.
"All 11 of our girls have worked hard and our goals are to win Class A in the OVAC and the Mason-Dixon Conference while finishing in the top 10 in the state. I know those sound like lofty goals, but these girls have the ability to reach them."
Coach Kim Huffman's Paden City boys' squad will be young, with just two returning athletes, but she feels that they are on the verge of building a nice program.
There are four seniors with Keith Hardbarger and Dylan Crawford both back to compete in the shot put and discus and Jarod Stewart and James Baker both out for the team for the first time.
Austin Quinn and Zach Estel are the only sophomores while a strong freshman class includes Kennedy Cain, Brandon Cross, Kane Pyles, Denton Thomas, Michael Lanham and Dean Frye.
"I am really not sure exactly where everyone is going to be right now, but we still have a little time to figure it out," Huffman said. "I do feel like we will be strong in distance events and also sprints and hurdles.
"As far as all the new kids go, I am very excited about that and I am hoping that we can start building into great things over the next four years."
Huffman feels like her team's best events could be the 1,600, 3,200, 1,600 relay and 3,200 relay.
Weirton Madonna
There are plenty of athletes to choose from on both the rosters for Weirton Madonna and Coach Eric Nejus. There are also plenty of state meet qualifiers on the girls' unit.
Leading the way will be senior Kaitlyn Conner, who finished fourth in the long jump at the state meet while also helping the 400 relay squad to a third place finish and the 800 to a fourth.
Sophomore Gianna Anile was a member of the 800 team while junior Makenna Dziatkowicz was on the 400 unit.
While Conner is the only senior on the squad, Dziatkowicz, Ali Yakbek and Taylor Pavan are the only juniors, leaving for a big group of underclassmen.
Anile leads the sophomores along with Francesca Basil, Christine Bae, Shelby Tenaglio, Shelby Kirk, Mariah Mott and Breanna Dalfol while the freshmen will include Molly Pavan, Gabrielle Kotten, Julia Hammer, Camie Dowiak and Kylie Johnson.
There are also plenty of sophomores and freshmen on the boys' team with Nate Nero and Nick Longhi the only seniors and Josh Francis, Alan Green, Garrett Hypes, Kirk Holmes and Dominic Notny making up the junior class.
Sophomores include Josh Smearman, Stevie Maus, Garrett Bever, Elliott Nero, Gabe Hypes and Travis Brown while the freshmen are Anthony Basil, Matt Green and Marquise Jeter.
Boys' Coach Tom Hart will be starting from scratch, losing his top three athletes to graduation and another to a serious knee injury. Jarrod Dunn and Seth Ward were both four-time state qualifiers while distance ace Austin Chambers might have been if not for an injury last year.
Sophomore Zach Ward was going to be counted on heavily, especially in relays, however, he sustained a knee injury during basketball season.
That leaves the brunt of things falling to a freshman and two newcomers to the unit. Freshman Clayton Ward could make some noise in the sprints and long jump while Felix Ashler (HJ) and Billy Estel (shot put) will both be sprinters.
"The kids have worked very hard and are doing everything we ask with no complaints and I am very proud of them," Hart mentioned. "With Zach's injury we are now going to have to focus on individual events with the athletes that we have.
"We really felt we could be competitive in the shorter relays, unfortunately we will need to reestablish our goals."
Girls' coach David Evans is in better shape numbers wise with 11 athletes, and the future looks bright with only two seniors and no juniors on the roster.
Senior Sarah Smith is a three-time state qualifier in the distance events and Evans hopes she will be pushed even harder by freshman newcomer Rena Reid, who he says had a fine junior high career.
The Dragons could be dangerous in distance and middle-distance events. Sophomore Jordyne Higginson, who was on the school's eighth place 3,200 unit at the state meet with Smith last year, will run the 400, 800 and two longer relays.
A trio of freshmen will all be available in the 400, 800 and relays in Jensen James, Laura Jochum and Josie Garland. While exchange students Adriana Jaramillo (400, 800), from Equator and Ekaterina Kholod (100, 200, shot put, high jump, long jump), from Eastern Russia, will compete.
The throwers will be seniors Kathy Sanner, Sammie DeBolt and sophomore Cheyenne DeBolt along with Jochum.
"I believe we can score some points in the weight and distance events," Evans said. "I am also hoping that Rena Reid will be able to push Sarah Smith into even bigger things in distance."

Motif Afghan Crochet-Along: Welcome!
September 17th, 2009
Hello, Crocheters!
My name is Edie Eckman, and I'm so excited to be leading this Motif Afghan Crochet-Along! I'm a crochet (and knit) designer, and lately I've been doing lots of motif crochet. You may think of it as "granny squares", but I've found it can be so much more than that.
Let me tell you what I have in mind for this adventure.
We'll be making a full-sized motif-based afghan in 3 or 4 colors. I've chosen Motif #48 from my book Beyond the Square Crochet Motifs as the basis for the design. It works well in 1, 2, 3 or 4 colors, and the hexagonal shape is so versatile that we have plenty of opportunity for creativity. You can find the motif instructions here.
This week, we'll be choosing colorways. The following week, we'll look at how the motif appears when stitched in a variety of color combinations and learn the "sliding loop" method of beginning a motif in the round. In Week 3, I'll show you a couple of ways to envision the final design, so you can decide how many motifs to make. The next week will include tips for improving your technique, dealing with yarn tails, and joining as you go. The final week we'll finish up: block, sew together (if we didn't join them as we worked), and weave in the ends.
Of course, this is simply a suggested outline. As we progress, I'll answer questions, and let you help me decide what we need to discuss. As in life, the plan is subject to change.
Choosing Colors
One of my favorite things about starting an afghan project is choosing the yarn. There are so many possible choices! I decided early on that I'd be using Lion Brand's Vanna's Choice and/or Vanna's Choice Baby, because of the many beautiful colors that are designed to go together. Wool-Ease is another good choice.
Although I didn't have any particular colorway in mind, I was looking for three or four colors that would look good together. I really find it hard to make up my mind when it comes to colors, so I'm starting with a bunch of choices. I like bright colors, but sometimes for home decor I'd prefer something more subtle. I've narrowed down my choices to four colorways, and wound some yarn onto white index cards to get an idea of how they might look together, and in what proportions.
I like #1 and #2 for a baby or kid's afghan, but I don't have any (little) kids at my house.
#3 would look great in my bedroom, but I recently did another afghan in a similar colorway and I'm afraid I might get tired of it.
#4 would work well in my den.
I'm leaning strongly toward #3 or #4.
What do you think? Let me know which colors you want to see me use in the comments section! You have FIVE days to help me decide, because I have to get the yarn!
Now…you go choose some yarns that will work for you. Since motifs lend themselves to using up colorful scraps of yarn, you could just go crazy and use a wide variety of colors! However, even if you are using up yarn from your stash, it's a good idea to choose colors deliberately.
Also, leave a note and introduce yourself! We want to know what yarn and colors you want to use, and we want to know a little about you!
Let the adventure begin…

Yosemite Climbers Keep Climbing Despite Shutdown
This photo, taken by Reddit user LiquidColor, shows numerous parties with headlamps heading up the Nose and the Salathé Wall on El Cap.
Yosemite National Park closed last Tuesday amid a budget impasse in the United States Congress. As part of a Department of the Interior contingency plan, all national parks were closed (see Rock and Ice's recent article) as a result of Congress' inability to appropriate funds for the fiscal year 2014. It is unknown when they will be open again.
The closures sparked outrage amid climbers and other outdoorsmen and women alike. Last Friday, protests raged outside the gates of Yosemite, with protesters raising posters with slogans like "Yosemite Held Hostage" and "Parks for People, Not Politics," according to a KCET.org news report.
And Yosemite isn't the only national park where people have entered in protest. According to KSL.com, a group of a dozen hikers entered Utah's Zion National Park on Saturday and dubbed themselves "Occupy Zion," according to the news report.
While many people applaud the protests, there are those that view them with disapproval.
"If these people have any respect for our National Park rangers they will stop. Yes, it's awful to be shut out of the parks, but try to see the big picture, people. There are plenty of previously underpaid and now currently unpaid rangers out there who will have to deal with you if you go into the parks … Making a statement to politicians is one thing. Adding to the burden of our already burdened federal employees is another," one user wrote on Outsideonline.com
Either way, national parks are still closed for the foreseeable future. Please keep checking Rock and Ice for updates regarding the government shutdown and its effect on the climbing community.
