Burglars get $100,000 in electronic devices, police say
Published: Sunday, September 8, 2013 at 8:18 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, September 8, 2013 at 8:18 p.m.
Four men who police say swiped $100,000 worth of electronics from Best Buy Mobile early Sunday morning could be linked to a spree of similar burglaries in South Florida.
Though details were sketchy on Sunday, Ocala Police Department Sgt. John Bienko said the theft was discovered by employees of the store at 2645 SW College Road at about 8:30 a.m.
Bienko said four men popped the dead bolt locks on the doors and could be seen briefly on video entering the store before they disarmed the security system.
The four burglars escaped before law enforcement could arrive at the store.
He said about 200 smartphones worth roughly $100,000 and other electronics were reported missing.
"Employees said there have been a rash of similar thefts around the state," said Bienko, the agency's on-duty watch commander on Sunday.
Just a few months ago, Fort Lauderdale police detectives investigated the theft of $120,000 worth of electronics from two Best Buy Mobile stores in that area, according to media reports. Those two burglaries followed several more Best Buy Mobile burglaries in Largo.
In those thefts, the suspects swiped cellphones, tablets and other items.
Anyone with any information about the theft should contact the police department at 369-7000 or Crime Stoppers at 368-STOP.
Joe Callahan can be reached at 867-4113 or at email@example.com.

Acee: Chargers an offensive mess put together by A.J. Smith
DENVER — The locker room had mostly emptied, the bulk of the Chargers players and coaches having dressed and left.
Philip Rivers had already addressed the media, showered and was fitting his boots under his jeans as he tackled the topic of the Chargers' suddenly impotent offense.
In his first six years as the starting quarterback, the Chargers offense averaged 25.6 points a game and never finished worse than eighth in offensive points scored. In fact, the 2011 season was the Chargers' eighth straight averaging at least 25 points, a stretch unmatched in NFL history.
Through 10 games this season, the offense is averaging 19.5 points and ranks 21st in the NFL.
Pushed to do more than take blame for his part, which can be measured now by his 14 picks, Rivers finally said this: "It's not an excuse, but we've had a lot of change. We've tried to grow. We have grown, just not (to) where we need to be to win a game."
All Rivers meant was that it takes a while for an offense with so many new parts to get in sustained rhythm.
But I will add that many of the new players simply don't even deserve to wear the same uniform worn by Vincent Jackson and Darren Sproles, Kris Dielman and Marcus McNeill.
Certainly, you remember all those screens to Sproles that used to go for more than four yards and often went for 20 or more, saving the Chargers again and again. You might look at the stats and think Jackson wasn't all that exceptional against Denver, but he occupied the great Champ Bailey the past five years while Malcom Floyd and Antonio Gates often ran free.
It's a struggle to even call this a Chargers offense. It's shameful.
For crying out loud, the five skill players in at game's end were Floyd and Gates and then Danario Alexander, Ronnie Brown and Ladarius Green.
The offensive line had Rex Hadnot and Michael Harris where Dielman and McNeill used to be.
Never has it been so apparent that this is A.J. Smith's mess.
It's not Smith's fault the left side of his line had to retire early due to injury, but it is his fault that Jackson and Sproles were not kept. And it's not Smith's fault that Jared Gaither is absolutely stealing money, but the highest draft pick Smith has ever invested on an offensive lineman is a second-round pick, and the guy starting in Gaither's place was undrafted this past April.
The Chargers can talk about being close, but even if it's true, missing by a few plays each time adds up over six games.
It adds up to this team just not having enough good players, and it is no longer an escapable conclusion.
Sunday's 30-23 loss, in which the offense amassed 54 yards and zero points in the first half, illustrated that more than any before it.
There was $29 million in guaranteed money paid to free agents this past March that paid little to no dividend on Sunday. Gaither missed his sixth game, Eddie Royal left with a hamstring injury after returning one punt for one yard, and Robert Meachem caught one pass for 10 yards after not seeing the field in the first half.
Linebacker Larry English, the first-round pick in 2009, playing in just his 14th games since the start of the '10 season, left another game injured. Running back Ryan Mathews, the first-round pick in 2010 went a 17th straight game without 100 yards. (And that's just the games he's played, as he has missed three games in that span. We're not even going to talk about his fumbles.)

Yeah, the rainstorm shouldn't have had any effect.
It does sound like the router is the cause, since the WiFi is still working for MRV.
It isn't clear if all the receivers are losing internet, or just those connected via WiFi.
Your router should have a factory reset button, which would be the next thing I'd suggest. Of course make sure you have the factory password before pressing the reset, as this step clears everything.
I wonder if it is possibly a heat issue with the router. THis version of the router is a flat version, meaning it lays flat on the surface. Other versions are vertically sitting which suggests that air flow is better for them than on flat. The router is a little over a year old, I wonder if it is starting to fail. FWIW, We notice video stuttering that was not there before as well, which I experienced with a Belkin router I had a year ago. That stopped when I bought the Cisco. And now it is happening again. So I wonder if I should think about replacing. ALso, what's a good one that is reliable and long lasting?

The 2012 UEFA European Football Championship, aka Euro 2012, kicks off on Friday 8 June and runs until 1 July. Hosted by Poland and Ukraine, UK football fans will be able to get their football fix free through the BBC and ITV. Here, we show you how to watch Euro 2012 online, live or on-demand.
Provided you have a valid TV licence, you can tune in live or catch up on-demand through your PC, laptop, tablet, smartphone or games console. The coverage is free to watch, but it's worth checking your data allowance if you don't subscribe to a broadband package with unlimited downloads and want to avoid a hefty bill. See Broadband Advisor.
Unless you're in an area with strong 3G coverage, also check that a reliable Wi-Fi connection is available to enable smooth streaming of the Euro 2012 football fixtures. After all, you'd hate your connection to drop out just as England scored that winning goal…
Watch Euro 2012 online: Live
TVCatchup.com lets you watch live free-to-air UK television on your computer, phone or games console. Versions of the site optimised for iPad and iPhone are available at ipad.tvcatchup.com and iphone.tvcatchup.com.
Head to TVCatchup.com and click the Sign Up button to begin. You'll need to enter a username, email address and password, then click Submit.
Once logged in, you're presented with a channel list. Euro 2012 will be broadcast by BBC and ITV; choose the correct channel for the particular fixture you want to watch live online. You can also change the stream quality, which is useful if you don't have a particularly fast broadband connection.
If this is the first time you've used TVCatchup, it will prompt you to update your profile with your gender, date of birth and occupation before you can begin watching live TV. On the following screen you will also need to select your region preference, then click Update Region.
TVCatchup kicks off with an ad or two, then immediately begins streaming your chosen TV channel. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the game.
Watch Euro 2012 online: Catch up on-demand
BBC and ITV both offer free catch-up TV services, in the form of iPlayer and ITV Player, which are available online or through dedicated apps for Android, iOS, games consoles, media PCs and TVs.
Watch Euro 2012 online: BBC iPlayer
iPlayer is the BBC's free catch-up TV service. Programmes are available for seven days following their transmission, but note that the service's Download and Series Record features are not usually available for sporting events, such as Euro 2012.
To watch Euro 2012 on a Windows, Mac or Linux PC, simply head to bbc.co.uk/iplayer for the desktop version of the site. Dedicated apps are available from Google Play and the App Store for Android 2.2+ tablets and the iPad respectively, while Xbox 36, PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii owners can stream content from Xbox Live, the PlayStation Network or through a Wii app.
If the fixture you're after isn't featured in the top panel, choose BBC One in the TV Channels section to the bottom left. The following screen will show the programme listings for the past seven days; you can also view today's guide and listings for the next two days. Click the date on which the match was broadcast in the timeline at the top of the screen.
Scroll down to find and select the fixture in the list. Click the arrow in the video frame to begin playback. Clicking again on the preview window reveals options to pause, fast-forward and rewind the action, turn on subtitles, and watch the match full-screen or in a pop-out window.
Below the stream are links to more games; look to the bottom of the screen for a Lower Bandwidth setting if you're experiencing trouble with playback.
Watch Euro 2012 online: ITV Player
The process for watching past football fixtures via ITV Player is much the same as it is for BBC iPlayer. Browse to itv.com/itvplayer on a PC or laptop, or download the dedicated app for your chosen platform from its app store.
Scroll down the home page to find the 'Browse by day' section. The default view is for ITV 1, but you can click the channel icons to switch to ITV 2, 3 and so on.
Choose the date on which the game took place, then use the arrows to the left and right of the featured programs to find it. Click on the game to open its dedicated page, then click the large Play now button to begin playback.
As with iPlayer, the page will also list other games and some information about the match. Hover the mouse over the screen to pause, fast-forward or rewind the action, turn on subtitles, adjust the volume or maximise the screen. Note that, unlike iPlayer, ITV Player plays a short advert before the match will begin.

Dawn Engman: Class of 2012 Student Representative
Dawn Engman of Dollar Bay is ready for life's next adventure!
Engman is the Finlandia University Class of 2012 Student Representative, formerly referred to as the class valedictorian. At Commencement exercises April 29, she will be awarded a bachelor of arts in psychology with an overall GPA of 3.907.
Engman is justifiably proud of her cumulative GPA, especially given that she competed on two Finlandia sports teams in each of her four years at Finlandia. She's also proud of the many lasting friendships that she has made at Finlandia.
"I have enjoyed my experience at Finlandia, and of course, the four years went by so fast," Engman says. "I did well in the small class setting, because that's what I'm used to and I like the one-on-one contact and closeness that is developed with teachers and classmates. Each year, I met different people who positively impacted my life in one way or another."
Dawn was salutatorian of the Dollar Bay High School Class of 2008. She is a daughter of Tim and Donna Engman, Dollar Bay. Tim works in Facilities Management at Finlandia. Donna is a registered nurse at Copper Country Mental Health outpatient services.
For Engman, academic achievement is doing the best that she can possibly do, and learning something new every day.
"A grading system can gauge how you're doing, but more important than getting an 'A' is actually taking something away from a class," Engman notes. "To me, academic achievement is learning stuff that is valuable, interesting, and something that I want to keep and apply to my life."
Engman chose a psychology major because "it's about people, and I'm definitely a people person."
Social psychology and abnormal psychology are topics Engman finds particularly interesting, and she says she especially enjoyed her classes with Finlandia assistant professor of psychology Leslie Johnson, as well as classes with assistant professor of communication Diane Miller and assistant professor of English Timo Koskinen.
"Dawn is a pleasure to have as a member of the Finlandia community," says Leslie Johnson. "In the classroom, she shows a deep interest in psychology. She's never satisfied with simply memorizing facts. She always takes learning a step further by asking questions, thinking critically about the material, and figuring out how it applies to 'real life.' It's this extra step that will ensure that she is able to apply in her career what she's learned here as a psychology major."
Leslie Johnson adds that outside of the classroom, she can count on Engman to show a caring interest in the lives of those around her.
"She enriches the community by making connections with others and taking the time to show that she truly cares about those around her," Johnson explains.
Engman played four years of both basketball and soccer at Finlandia. As a sophomore and a senior, she was captain of the soccer team; as a senior she was captain of the basketball team. Engman was named to the university's All-Academic Team in each of her four years. She also played softball her freshman year.
Engman was pleased that this year she had the chance to play Lions basketball with her sister, Brittany, a freshman Pre-professional Science major at Finlandia. "It was fun to be on the same team," she says.
This spring, Engman is completing a 90-hour internship at Copper Country Mental Health (CCMH), Houghton, "job shadowing" social worker Leslie Griffith, an early childhood mental health clinician who works with children up to age seven. Engman has accompanied Griffith to client appointments and observed how she interacts with parents and children and teaches them important parenting skills.
"I've also had the opportunity to work with Leslie's case manager," Engman adds, giving her an opportunity to learn some of the duties that pertain to that job.
The CCMH internship has also presented Engman with additional learning opportunities. She attended a presentation about autism and how to help children with this disorder, observed a family court meeting, taught basic social skills to Kindergarten-age children, and renewed her first aid/CPR/safety training.
"This internship is highly related to the field I'm studying," Engman says. "What I've learned in my numerous psychology and sociology classes-like Interviewing and Counseling, Chemical Dependency in Families, and Abnormal Psychology-I'm applying now in my internship."
Over spring break this March, Engman spent a 40-hour week at CCMH and on the job with Griffith. "I was able to see what a real week was like there, rather than fitting in a few hours here or there," Engman says. "I could see myself working there and enjoying it. I would like to have a job like Leslie has, working closely with families to help improve their parenting skills and the lives of their children."
With help and inspiration from Griffith, Engman has applied to a master's degree program at the Western Michigan University School of Social Work. If that opportunity blooms, she'll begin work on her master's in social work this fall. She knows that graduate school will be challenging, but she says she feels prepared and is confident in her abilities.
Engman has also applied for a nine-month opportunity to live and teach English in Spain. "I think this would be a life-changing experience," she says. "I am currently taking a Spanish class, so I'd be happy to try out my newly-acquired-and still basic-Spanish-speaking skills."
Since her sophomore year, Engman has held a work-study position with Finlandia's Teaching Learning Center (TLC), primarily helping her fellow students with their English papers. This year she is a peer tutor and conversation partner for international students in Finlandia's English as a Second Language (ESL) program.
"Dawn has been a terrific asset to the ESL program," notes Suzanne Van Dam, Finlandia associate professor of English. "She is patient and encouraging, and the international students enjoy her a lot!"
When she can, Engman also works part-time as a cashier at Festival Foods, Houghton. It's a job she's had since she was 17 years old.
Dawn has four sisters and one brother. One of her sisters, Kasey (Engman) Nerone, is a 2006 Finlandia Elementary Education graduate (and valedictorian of her Finlandia class). Dawn's younger sister, Brittany, is a Pre-professional Science freshman at Finlandia.
"Finlandia has been a complete learning experience for me," Engman concludes. "I'd like to thank all of the people at Finlandia that have made a difference for me. Where you are, and what you're doing, is nothing if you're not with the right people. I am happy to say that I've been learning and growing with the encouragement and guidance of the best people during my four years at Finlandia."

How do you move/transport your GEM with scopes on?
Posted 14 April 2009 - 10:42 AM
I tried to lift my Atlas with everything on and it was very difficult!
Also, how do you extend the legs? Remove all equipment first and then extend?
Posted 14 April 2009 - 11:29 AM
Posted 14 April 2009 - 12:17 PM
I take the scope(s) out of the saddle and then put them back after I have moved the mount and leveled etc. While I could move it all together there are too many reasons not to do so and only one reason to not break it down which would be I am being lazy
Look at it this way.....not many of us buy this stuff for life. We instead tend to "upgrade" from time to time, some more than others lol. I buy used on everything pretty much.
I look at it as paying rent rather than purchasing since I will eventually "trade it in" on the next shiny gadget. The better condition I keep it in the less rent I have to pay for its use when I do get around to selling it
In as far as raising the legs....depends. If I am confident it wont get away from me to do so then I have taken that chance.....all depends on which mount, what is sitting on it etc.
I was wondering how do you guys move your mount (and tripod) when its fully loaded? Such as moving from front yard to back yard or from inside the house to outside? Moving entire setups, particularly something on the lines of an Atlas mount all decked out with gear is simply begging for disaster and possibly raising the rent!

Posted 14 April 2009 - 12:28 PM
In the field, I only do this to avoid inconvenient trees. I will also slide the mount with an 8" SCT small amounts of space. I wouldn't try moving the C11/Sirius combination.
I would (and do) make small adjustments in the legs, but not a full extension. Too much weight to overcome.

I was wondering how do you guys move your mount
Don't - unless you like the sound of optics crashing against the ground.
What I do with my Atlas. If I'm only putting a refractor on there, I extend the tripod legs about half way. Then, I mount the Atlas head on the tripod. Then I get the mount somewhat pointed north, then I level the tripod.
Once the tripod is level and pointing close to North (Polaris) then and only then do I mount an OTA on there.
However, I've been mounting a SN10 on my Atlas for over a year and I don't extend the legs at all - except for minor adjustments for leveling.
The mount is more stable when the legs are not extended anyway.
I would NEVER try to move a fully loaded GEM. When you set up, make sure it's a place you'll be all night. The advice I'd give if you were going to move it is to break it all down, and then set up again.

I should have added "and how big of a clutz you are."
Posted 14 April 2009 - 05:31 PM
When I'm going out in the field. I simply remove the OTA and take it in a separate box. I try to leave as many things assembled as reasonably possible.
Posted 14 April 2009 - 10:47 PM
I also keep a CGE set up in the basement with no OTA on it. The CGE tripod, mount and counterweight shaft are around 90 pounds - and that's the most I can handle. I can't imaging carrying a CGE with any OTA on it.
Posted 15 April 2009 - 09:28 AM
I just wanted to say that I'm very impressed with your scope buggy. Nicely done! Thank you for posting the picture.
Posted 15 April 2009 - 10:02 AM
I had this concern when I fist got my GEM back in February and I only have an LXD75 & small Newt & guidescope. I developed a technique to carry it from my garage out to my observing site, but it's still a risk. With an Atlas....no way! Of course, I'm a weakling !
Some sort of scope buggy would be great, but I have no clear path to my observing area from the garage, there would be tipping going over steps or lots of bumping as I traveled over grass. It's a concern if I ever upgrade my mount.

The scope/mount doesn't fall over on its own because the weight acts down through the center and is supported by the three legs. If, for some reason, one leg is lifted up, the force necessary is only 1/3 the total weight; two legs are a pivot line, so the weight pushing down is about 1/3 the distance from the pivot line compared to the lifted leg's distance.
Now, same configuration, but push against the side of the mount; make the problem easy and apply the force over one leg. Huge moment arm for the force to act through now, same small moment arm for the weight to resist. Much easier to tip over inadvertantly! Those of us at the 2008 All Arizona Messier Marathon watched a daytime dust devil blow against a (C-11/CGE I think, anyway, a heavy mount and scope) with a reflective weather cover on it. The cover inflated and the whole setup went over in a heart beat, with a spine tingling noise as it crashed, while five feet away a small sun canopy didn't move.
It is possible to really cause a disaster when the scope and mount is by its design top heavy, especially after carrying it some distance and trying to put it down gracefully. It doesn't take much OOPS to have it do something you'd wish it hadn't. Even a ScopeBuggy has max terrain or obstruction angles to consider. The wider base, though, helps lower the risk of tip over.

I would trust a scope buggy without an OTA&CW's mounted though. It's when everything is set up, that's when I wouldn't try to move anything. Some might pull their full set up out of their garage every night for the past 10 years - but now after reading this thread Murphy and his Law comes knocking...

1) Bring telescope tube outside, standing up on the walkway in my backyard.
2) Roll the assembled mount outside on walkway over to my place on the lawn. This is the hardest part since only 2 wheels on the tripod are on the concrete the other wheel rolls across dirt and grass.
3) Eyeball the polar alignment with the north star.
4) Place telescope on the mount in the observing location on the grass. Attach to mount via the rotating rings.
5) Plug in cooling fan to the extension cord via 12V adapter inside an insulated box.
6) Plug in variable speed control for clockdrive.
7) Prepare eyepieces for viewing.
Approx. 15 minutes or less if I was to hurry. Pretty good for a 10" newtonian on a GEM.
Posted 15 April 2009 - 01:36 PM
Randy: I've had no issues with my setup, even fully loaded (around 150 lbs not including weight of the platform) - but then I'm only moving from my garage to the driveway. I've got two fairly deep expansion joints to cross - but I used 4" foam-core wheels, and the tripod is attached to the buggy with rubber tie-downs. It's never gotten "tippy" - but I sure as heck wouldn't want to try navigating my backyard with it.

Induction Systems - 1, 2, 3, GoWritten by on October 11, 2012 We put three induction system under the test
Since the 273 V-8 was introduced, the Chrysler LA series small-block engine has become a hit with Mopar performance enthusiasts. Packaged in a small, lightweight block, the small-block Mopar is some 150 pounds lighter than a comparably equipped big-block. When the 340 engine was introduced, it sealed the deal, as it was quite a match for any off-brand small-block, and the 360 LA and Magnum versions of this engine are proven powerhouses as well. Thanks to great aftermarket support for the Mopar small-block, displacements, and power levels, are far greater now than they have ever been, allowing the small-block Mopar to make power numbers previously reserved for big-block or Hemi engines.
One company that has embraced the Chrysler small-block is Indy Cylinder Head. Taking advantage of our annual Engine Challenge several years ago, the crew at Indy used their entry to team up with RHS, developing the Indy LA-X line of cylinder heads. Indy also won our Engine Challenge that year, as their small-block made more power and torque than any of the other seven entries. Indy has a full line of parts you need to build your own Mopar small-block engine, or they offer complete engines if you'd rather not do it yourself. During this year's annual Chrysler technical seminars and swap meet at the Indiana State Fairgrounds, we noticed one small-block offered by Indy Cylinder Head that could make three different levels of power, all with the same intake manifold. Intrigued, we decided to visit them and check out what it takes to build this potent 408-inch small-block, and then test it on the dyno using a single four-barrel, dual-quads, and a supercharger with dual-quads.
The basis of this engine is a 360 block with a 4.030-inch bore size and an Eagle forged crankshaft with a stroke of four inches, for a total displacement of 408 cubic inches. Forged dish pistons with coated skirts combined with Indy's LA-X cast-iron cylinder heads give the engine a pump-gas friendly 9.0:1 compression ratio, and I-beam forged connecting rods are utilized. A Milodon road race oil pan and Melling oil pump handle the lubrication duties.
For improved flow and power potential, Indy treated the LA-X cylinder heads of this engine to CNC bowl porting, and the heads feature 2.055-inch intake and 1.625-inch exhaust valves. These heads offer longer valves than standard LA heads, with Magnum style combustion chambers and ports, while retaining the shaft mounted rocker arms. Indy also offers a version of this cylinder head featuring individual Magnum-style rocker arms, making this a versatile, great performing head.
Since this engine was designed to run well both naturally aspirated or with a blower providing boost, camshaft selection was critical. Engine builder Ken Lazzeri of Indy Cylinder Head chose a Comp Cams hydraulic flat-tappet cam for this engine, for simplicity and cost effectiveness. This special grind camshaft features .544-inch intake lift and .541-inch exhaust lift, with 240- and 246-degree duration ratings for the intake and exhaust respectively. Lobe separation for this grind is 110 degrees, and Ken installed the cam at 108 degrees. Indy Cylinder Head roller rocker arms are utilized with a ratio of 1.6 on both the intake and exhaust side.
The item that makes this engine so versatile is the Mod Man intake manifold built by Indy Cylinder Head. This intake allows the user to change between a single four-barrel, two four-barrel plate, Six-Pack plate, or even a blower plate. This is an exceptional benefit on the small-block engine since on a small-block, the intake manifold houses water jackets requiring the coolant be drained to change the intake. For our dyno session, we decided to test the single four-barrel version using a 750-cfm Holley, then use a pair of 500-cfm Edelbrock carbs on the dual-quad top plate, before finishing off our test with a 671 Littlefield blower attached to the blower top plate.
Starting with the single four-barrel, we fired the engine up on the dyno to begin our testing. This is a throaty small-block, and with 408 inches of displacement and sounds more like a big-block when it's running. Indy offers a version of this same engine with the MA-X (Magnum style) cylinder head and a slightly milder camshaft and slightly smaller valves rated at 450 horsepower with one four-barrel, so we were eager to see what this little powerhouse could produce. On the first dyno pull, it was evident that this small-block ran well, as peak torque was 481.8 lb-ft and peak horsepower was 495.9 horsepower at 5,900 rpm. A big part of this story, however, is the Mod Man intake this small-block is equipped with.
Thanks to Indy's Mod Man, we could quickly make dyno pulls, then change the top plate of the intake in about 20-30 minutes and be ready to dyno the engine again. We accomplished multiple pulls on this engine with three different induction setups, and easily accomplished all of our work in a day on the dyno. Even more impressive is the power this engine made. Check out the dyno results below and we're sure you'll agree that this 408 shows its potential both normally aspirated and with the blower. Also be sure to check out moparmusclemagazine.com for a video of this powerful small-block making pulls on Indy's dyno.

We all know Indy Cylinder Head for their big-block and Hemi race engines, but this versatile small-block is an economically priced powerhouse.01 The foundation for this 408-cubic-inch small-block is a fully prepped 360 Magnum block combined with an Eagle forged crankshaft with a four-inch stroke. Forged I-beam connecting rods are utilized along with forged pistons with coated skirts.02a Dish pistons and Indy's LA-X cylinder head combine for a compression ratio of 9.0:1. This engine runs great on pump gas..02b...maybe even regular when normally aspirated, and the compression is low enough to install a blower for a big power increase.03 Indy's cast-iron X head is available in two versions, the LA-X with shaft mounted rocker gear or the MA-X with Magnum style rockers. Both heads utilize the same great combustion chamber with plenty of quench area, as well as the Magnum style ports.04 We bolted the 408 to Indy's Superflow dyno, and engine builder/dyno operator Ken Lazzeri verified ignition timing while the engine warmed up. The 750 Holley single four-barrel is likely a little small for this stroked small-block, but still impressed us with a peak torque of more than 480 lb-ft and a peak horsepower number of 495.9.05 This is the dyno sheet with a single 750 Holley installed on the 408 small-block we tested. With over 450 lb-ft of torque, from 3,900 rpm all the way to almost 6,000 rpm, even with a single four-barrel, this is a stout combination. Horsepower topped out at 6,100 rpm at almost 495.06 A big part of this engine's versatility is the Mod Man intake manifold. This intake allows you to change just the top plate, changing from single four-barrel, to dual-quads, three deuces, or even a blower in just minutes. The bottom part of the intake stays in place, eliminating the coolant spills associated with small-block intake swaps. Ken easily had the single four-barrel plate removed, and dual-quads installed and ready to run in about 25 minutes.07 With a pair of Edelbrock 500-cfm carburetors installed, Ken quickly made some preliminary tuning adjustments and we were ready to make another pull. The dyno verified that this healthy small-block liked the extra air and fuel, as power was significantly improved over the single four-barrel.
08 With dual-quads on this engine, horsepower improved to 512.8, and was still climbing at 6,100 rpm. Peak torque also topped the 500 mark, as the engine made 500.7 lb-ft at 5,100 rpm. The engine sounded clean and seemed to like the Mod Man intake with one carb-barrel over each port.09a Swapping to the 671 blower is slightly more complicated. As before, the required Mod Man blower plate needed to be installed...09b...but since a blower is topping the engine, Indy's specially designed offset distributor is also required to clear the rear of the blower housing.10 With the blower and two 600-cfm carburetors installed, this engine sounds like an entirely different animal. Making a short dyno pull to verify everything was working properly, we quickly noticed on the computer screen in the dyno operating room that power and torque were way up.11 With the 671 blower underdriven 7.7 percent, this engine made amazing power and torque. Peak torque was over 695 lb-ft at 4,300 rpm, and peak horsepower was 738.7 at 6,100 rpm. If over-the-top looks and power are your style, adding a blower to this engine will produce what you're looking for.

|I'm Just Cookin'
|Written by Darci Tomky
Spring is coming ... someday
Even though it hasn't really felt like spring, it is spring, and spring is one of my most favorite times of the year! I love how everything gets so green and the birds are chirping and there's a certain crispness to the air on a cool spring morning that just makes me alive and ready for the day!
As I write this column, it's a whopping 32 degrees outside, not to mention really cloudy and depressing, but alas, we will celebrate springtime with some refreshing fruit dips in spite of the weather!
Fruit dips make me feel healthy, because, of course, they involve fruit. But I'm quite certain my fruit to dip ratio is a bit off balance, if you know what I mean. I could eat this stuff with a spoon and forget the fruit altogether!
(By the way, is there a book or something on proper fruit dip etiquette? How much dip per fruit slice is acceptable? And are you allowed to double dip? Oh well, I'd probably just throw the book out the window anyway!)
The first fruit dip recipe is a classic and a favorite for my family. (Grab a spoon! It's that good!) Since it's plain white, you always have the option of adding a little food coloring to spice it up a bit for a springtime party or shower.
I just found the peanut butter yogurt dip on Pinterest (simplysouthernjab.blog spot.com), and I think I'm in love! This is what I'd call a "healthy" fruit dip, so I don't feel so badly about pigging out on it! If you use an individual size Greek yogurt and whip in the other ingredients, you have a nice little snack you could easily pack for work or school.
Fruit Dip
8-ounce cream cheese, softened
Blend all ingredients until smooth. Chill. Serve with your choice of fruit. (strawberries, bananas, apples, vanilla wafers, etc.)
Peanut Butter Yogurt Dip
One package (5.3 ounce) vanilla Greek yogurt

SANDY SPRINGS, Ga. -- Days before the debut of the fourth season, filming is already underway for season five of "Say Yes To the Dress Atlanta" on TLC.
"How has this show changed your lives and your business?" 11Alive's Jennifer Leslie asked the stars of the reality show.
"Oh, my gosh, it's been a godsend for us," Lori Allen said.
Allen and Monte Durham have been best friends for years. It's their chemistry that's made the show a hit.
"The way we act and interact with customers is no different than if you would come in here on a Saturday," Allen said.
"We cut up. We have a good time. We want the bride to have fun," Durham added. "Really, this is a very joyous occasion, and we're so honored to be sharing in it."
The brides on the show have to apply online, then go through casting. But they're real brides who don't get compensated, and they're not obligated to buy a dress.
"Median price range on a bridal gown here is $4,000," Allen said. "We do get in brides that want to spend less, but we start at $2,000 and go up."
"What's up?" Leslie asked.
"Up," Allen replied.
"I think we currently have a dress on the floor for $18,000," Durham added.
Bridals by Lori in Sandy Springs is the setting for the show. Allen is the owner. She carries more than 1,000 couture gowns.
There are 21 dressing rooms in the bridal department upstairs. Number a10 is the one you see on the show.
"And look how cute this is," Durham said as he pointed to a photo in the dressing room during a behind-the-scenes tour. "This is Lori on her wedding day."
Allen was married in 1979 in a dress she still loves. She's been in the business for 32 years.
"Are you surprised by anything you hear from a bride or a mom?" Leslie asked.
"Everyday," Allen said.
"Oh, my gosh," Durham added. "Some of the things we hear that y'all may not hear."
The show has made Bridals by Lori a tourist destination, with fans coming from across the country.
"There's a line usually on Saturday," Durham said. "It's amazing to us."
Durham is based in Virginia, but he flies in for filming every week to serve as the show's fashion director.
"The Bridesmaids show films Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and then the bridal show films Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays," Allen said.
TLC's "Say Yes to the Dress: Bridesmaids" is also filmed at Bridals by Lori. Season three will start in October.
"Bridesmaids have become very opinionated," Durham said. "In our day, it was an honor to be asked to be in a wedding."
"You wore this, and you paid up and shut up," Allen added, pointing do a bridesmaid gown on the shop's first floor.
Saturdays are for regular appointments only, and there is a waiting list.
During most other days, two brides come in to tape the show and others come in to shop.
"It is hard for these girls to make a decision, but somehow 99 percent of the time they do it," Allen said.
"We have a good batting average," Durham added. "We know what we're doing."
Season four of "Say Yes to the Dress Atlanta" debuts on Friday, August 24th at 9 p.m. on TLC.

Project Scope:
Running a homebrew D&D game, my first real campaign, spanning a whole continent in my world. Been really hurting for desert city maps. I've messed with Dundjinni, and CC3, along with Autorealm (which I made my world map with, yuck) and I've realized I'm awful at making maps. Need some help if anyone is willing.
Southern Half of the continent sandy, hot arid, large inland fresh water sea...think Kesh from The Rift War Saga
Number of maps:
Three one large one, and 2 smaller one, all cities.
Design Concept:
Think Middle Eastern cities anywhere between the 9th - 15th century maybe Dark Sun.
The main city in the southern part of the continent, looks kinda like Tyr the main royalty lives in where that temple is, and the city surrounds them, the royalty is walled off from the rest of the city. This would be a large map, sorta like this map that I'm using. It would have to be usable for battles. (BTW i have no clue who did this I found it on Google, and I just wanna say it kicks ass). I picture the city looking like the dwarven map actually, just more buildings, sand and less lava . I would like it to include some open toped buildings, an inn, temple, a broker's office/warehouse, and if it can fit i'd like a market and slave pen/sellers area of some sort that i can put tokens in. there's also a vast sewer system under the city, so sewer grates, and stairs down are a must. The palace can be visible, but I don't need it open, I just always used another map of the inside.
The other maps would be about this size one walled off. It's like a nice province, with slave market, inn and office, and an estate in the center of town, (that doesn't have to be open).
The other one will be a run down city, with a high population, basically full of escaped slaves, with access to the ocean. There is a heavy population of drow in this city. Think the underdark above ground with middle eastern inspired buildings.
I like the style of maps I attached. I think most are out of Dundjinni, so I would want to stay as close to that style as possible.
I'm using d20pro and need to be able to zoom in tight into these images, like 200 to 300dpi but honestly I have no clue, I just need to be able to zoom really close with out it bluing. Bogie did a map called DragonKill-Lair2_bg that is perfect in the style and in the way I can zoom on it.
Full color
You can have fun with the decor in.
Remains with cartographer. Do what ever you want with the maps.
My group is slow moving and the desert is towards the end game. They are been playing for a little under a year now and haven't left the first city.
I have no money, but you can have my eternal gratitude and, I can help write or write you, an adventure for you game, if you'd like.
Thanks for taking the time to read this, if you want to make the maps of have any questions, like me know.

Just put something about the maps in the subject

Your pillar - which consists of your hips, torso and shoulders - represents the foundation for all of your movement. All movement requires the production or absorption of forces; this force is then transferred throughout your body in order to execute the movement. Your pillar acts as a bridge to ensure the seamless transfer of energy throughout your body - its alignment and function directly correspond to the quality and efficiency of every move you will make.
If your pillar is compromised, energy leaks may occur throughout your body, causing movement compensations that can quickly lead to aches, pain and even injuries. It's important to realize that these energy leaks will also have a negative impact on the amount of power production in any given movement.
If you think of the body as a wheel, the pillar is the hub and the limbs are spokes. We want to have the hub perfectly aligned so we can draw energy from it and effectively transfer energy throughout the body. It's impossible to move the limbs efficiently and forcefully if they're not attached to something solid and stable.
Pillar Preparation is a training component that is designed to strengthen the critical stabilizing muscles of your pillar: shoulders, torso and hips. By performing Pillar Preparation at the start of your training session, you are engaging or "turning on" the muscles that will help protect, stabilize and strengthen your pillar so that you are able to safely and effectively transfer energy throughout your body during the rest of your workout. In addition, Pillar Preparation will give you a solid foundation, which will allow you to perform your operational task at the best of your ability, all while reducing the chance of injury. A strong pillar will help keep you healthy and in peak form.

Building Partnerships between scientists, managers and society for marine forests conservation
11 October 2013 | News story
The second workshop on seagrass meadows organised by the IUCN Centre for Mediterranean Cooperation brought together more than 100 participants, including scientists, managers, entrepreneurs and local representatives who debated about the state of conservation, management and natural and socio-economic services of seagrass on the Spanish coast and the Mediterranean. The meeting took place in Malaga from 9 to 10 October in the framework of the project LIFE+POSIDONIA Andalucía.
Preliminary results based on a compilation of 519 studies, presented at the workshop, showed that during the last 60 years there has been a net loss of seagrass ecosystems in the Mediterranean basin, estimated between 13% and 38%, due to local impacts widespread across the Mediterranean coasts. This has led to as similar loss of ecosystemic services provided by these meadows, such as carbon sink or coastal protection.
Participants agreed that Posidonia oceanica meadows should rather be called marine forests, because they can be considered as millenary with a very long lifespan although coupled with extremely slow recovery. Their biogenic reefs constitute a natural record of climate and environmental conditions in the last millenia, thus providing another service to human beings, specially for science.
Local managers stressed the need of clear guidelines at national, Mediterranean and European levels to manage cast-ashore materials on beaches, in order to avoid beach loss. Also they highlighted the need of revision of the Touristic and Beach Quality Label requirements as to introduce sustainable criteria for beach management.
Finally, a group of experts presented the advances of the first atlas of marine seagrasses of Spain, which will allow to have for the first time a complete overview of the distribution and conservation status of Spanish seagrass meadows. The Portuguese representation proposed to integrate the information of Portuguese seagrasses in a wider work of the Atlas.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- North Carolina coach Larry Fedora plans to push his players for more in his second season.
His first team set school records for scoring and total offense on the way to eight wins.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Fedora says the success of 2012 is "not the bar for us" and that he feels "like we've just got a start."
Fedora says his team did a good job of building a foundation and a culture for a program that practices and plays at a fast tempo.
Last year's team averaged nearly 41 points and 484 yards per game, both setting school records.
The Tar Heels faced a one-year postseason ban from the NCAA for improper benefits and academic misconduct dating back to 2008.

Winnipeg, MB (SportsNetwork.com) - Boone Jenner and Mark Letestu both lit the
lamp twice as the Columbus Blue Jackets defeated the Winnipeg Jets, 6-3, at
MTS Centre.
Cam Atkinson and Nick Foligno supplied the other two Columbus goals. James
Wisniewski and Derek Mackenzie both tallied two assists as the Blue Jackets
won their third straight.
Columbus netminder Curtis McElhinney turned aside 28 shots in the win.
Bryan Little had a goal and an assist, while Tobias Enstrom and Eric O'Dell
scored the other Winnipeg goals. Ondrej Pavelec allowed all six goals on 26
shots in the Jets' fifth straight loss.
A little over a minute after a Winnipeg goal was disallowed due to a high-
stick, the Jets got on the board first. McElhinney slid past a puck that was
shot off the boards by Adam Pardy and O'Dell was in the crease to backhand it
into an open net for his first career goal 4:32 into the first period.
Columbus tied the game 36 seconds into the second while shorthanded. Letestu
took a pass from Mackenzie on his forehand and moved to his backhand, faking
out Pavelec before sliding the puck into the net.
"The first period wasn't the way we wanted to start, but we responded well.
McElhinney was making good saves. That shorthanded goal at the start of the
second period was big," Jenner said.
Atkinson scored on a tic-tac-toe passing play shortly afterward to put the
Blue Jackets in front. He entered the zone and dropped a pass to Ryan Murray,
who then slid the puck over to Wisniewski. Atkinson received the puck from
Wisniewski and quickly wristed a shot into the wide-open net 4:15 into the
Columbus' Ryan Johansen sent the puck to the front of the net from the right
corner and Foligno redirected it past McElhinney to make it 3-1 at 8:26 of the
second. Jenner was taken down by Pardy 41 seconds later while on a breakaway
and was awarded a penalty shot. He skated up the right side and slapped a low
shot past Pavelec to make it a 4-1 game.
Enstrom slapped a shot past a screened McElhinney to get the Jets within two
with close to eight minutes remaining in the second.
Jenner scored his second of the night after wristing a rebound over the
shoulder of Pavelec 4:08 into the third, putting the Blue Jackets up 5-2.
Winnipeg got one back on the power play. Andrew Ladd dove in front of
McElhinney to set a screen and Little corralled a rebound and proceeded
to lift a backhand for his 15th of the season less than two minutes after
Jenner scored.
Letestu's second of the night with 8:46 left in the third accounted for the
final score.
"If you look at some of the goals they're just breakdowns. Half the goals
probably shouldn't have even had a chance and you have some empty-netters.
Just kind of a mistake-filled game," said Little.
The two teams split the season series. Winnipeg won their first matchup, 3-2,
on Dec. 16 ... Mackenzie returned to the lineup after a three-game suspension
... This was Columbus' first-ever regular-season game in Winnipeg ... Ladd
recorded his 100th assist as a member of the Jets franchise.

Unanswered question: Does rock-star chief's ouster signal change in policy?
Lean back, close your eyes and imagine this:
Under orders from President Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who had informed the White House of a vexing problem involving two employees at Foggy Bottom, is herself placed on administrative leave, a de facto paid vacation while a Justice Department investigation runs its course.
Jay Carney, the president's spokesman, tells the national press, which is going wild bananas, that details of the "personnel" matter cannot legally be disclosed.
All the press needs to know, Carney says, is that Secretary Clinton is at home puttering around her garden.
After six weeks, Clinton announces she is retiring, even though the probe has not been completed. When asked about her dramatic departure from State, Clinton says nothing, leading many to conclude she has signed a nondisclosure agreement.
This scenario is, of course, a feverish fantasy.
There is no — no as in zero — chance that a figure as towering as Clinton could be unceremoniously suspended without a full accounting, either through official channels or anonymously through leaks. The Washington press corps would not eat or sleep until uncovering what led the president to humiliate the most politically potent member of his cabinet.
In Escondido, an analogous chain of events has led to a remarkable dearth of published information, a vacuum into which speculation has swirled.
City Manager Clay Phillips, Escondido's well-paid CEO who has the power to hire and fire those below him, placed police Chief Jim Maher on paid leave in September after Maher reportedly blew the whistle on something funky going on in his department.
Rumors have circulated about grumblings over a relationship between Maher and a female department employee, but the mill is now focusing on a racial slur involving two officers that somehow involves Maher.
Last week, a subdued Maher said he would retire from the force in December even though a so-called "investigation" is ongoing.
It should be noted, however, that this investigation in duration rivals the FBI's probe into the terrorist attack in Libya where, it's safe to say, the stakes are higher and the witnesses more difficult to interview.
What should take an afternoon or two to unravel is foot-dragging deep into its second month, a risible fact that leads to the conclusion that the investigation is a sham.
Let's back up a bit before getting to the odorous bottom line.
For several years, Maher has been one of the most controversial chiefs in the region's history. In anti-illegal-immigration circles, he's a tough law-and-order folk hero, North County's answer to Arizona's Sheriff Joe Arpaio. Politically, Maher eclipses his limelight-averse boss, a glaring disparity over which Phillips no doubt has ground his teeth.
A common view is that Phillips has had it out for the rock star for some time. Maher's refusing to take a pay raise when his cops were denied a hike demonstrated that Maher's political ear was tuned — and Phillips' was made of cheap tin.
Now that Maher is stepping down, much of the discussion has to do with his legacy as it relates to DUI checkpoints, which some see as malicious dragnets for illegal immigrants and others as admirable attempts to cleanse the streets of criminals.
In my view, anyway, the pro-con analysis of Maher's tenure is a rabbit hole for another time.
The citizens of Escondido don't need to know right now what Maher leaves behind. They need to know what led to Maher's ouster if they're to understand what it means for the future law-enforcement policies of the city.
Was Maher forced out because he personally pushed Escondido to an extreme in a crusade against illegal immigration? Or did something happen that exposed him as a poor manager?

One word for SDSU offense: inconsistent
There were about 1,000 people in the stands and a full crew of referees on the field at Cathedral Catholic High on Saturday for San Diego State football's Fan Fest.
But other than the ambiance, little changed from what the Aztecs have shown in camp workouts on their own campus field the last two weeks.
They clearly have some dangerous weapons at the skill positions on offense, but their young offensive line remains a big question mark, and because the offense has had its struggles, it's hard to tell just how good the defense is yet.
According to Aztecs head coach Rocky Long, almost nothing meaningful could be taken away from a glorified practice simply meant to give the fans a small glimpse of the team that begins the season on Sept. 1 with a daunting matchup at Washington.
"When you scrimmage each other, you have no idea who's good," Long said.
Yet he did provide this assessment when asked: "We're so inconsistent. One minute we look pretty good and the next minute we look terrible.
"There were too many mistakes on offense, too many penalties. But I thought the offense looked good in the first half and the defense looked OK in the second half.
The Aztecs' first and second teams alternated playing for a full 60 minutes, and over about 22 drives started at various points in its own territory, the offense scored only four touchdowns.
Ryan Katz, the senior transfer from Oregon State who was named the starter on Monday, split time with backup Adam Dingwell and led three of the scoring drives. Overall, he went 17-for-33 for 218 yards with one touchdown and one interception.
But Katz also ran six drives that did not result in a single first down.
On many pass plays, Katz was under severe pressure in the backfield, but he couldn't do much about it because Long barred him from running too far out of the pocket. He's already shown he is a fully capable of scrambling for good yardage.
"I know the defense sometimes thinks they have me, but I think differently," Katz said with a smile. "We'll see what happens come game time."
The defense was credited with 12 "sacks" against the quarterbacks – though referees blew a quick whistle so as to not let the quarterback be tackled. Defensive tackle and Helix High alum Sam Meredith and linebacker Jake Fely (Oceanside) each had three sacks, and Fely made an interception of Dingwell that he returned 44 yards. Lineman Robert Craighead also pulled down an interception after a pass was tipped.
For the passing game to be effective, Katz is going to need more protection.
"The offensive line struggled at times," Long said. "As long as we played vanilla on defense, they did a nice job. As soon as we added some blitzes I don't think it held up as good as it should or that it will need to."
The Aztecs are showing plenty of spark at wide receiver. Colin Lockett, feeling more comfortable since transitioning from defense to start last season, made five catches for 104 yards, the bulk of it coming on a "bubble" screen pass to the sideline by Katz in which Lockett had to beat one defender before racing 72 yards for a touchdown.
"Those are a quarterback's dream, when you can throw a little bubble pass and watch a guy run for 80," Katz said.
Also looking formidable is receiver Brice Butler, the senior transfer from USC. With Dingwell quarterbacking his first drive, Butler caught passes of 20 and 10 yards, the latter going for a touchdown. Butler ended up with four catches for 50 yards.
