text: By Christy SheetsSports WriterThe Paxton Tournament The Wallace Wildcats competed in the Paxton tournament on Tuesday, Sept.18. Wallace vs Paxton The Cats' first opponent was the Tigers of Paxton. The Tigers were tough, and perhaps because the Wildcats had gotten close to them in an earlier match of the season, they were determined to hammer home a victory. In the most frustrating match of the season, the Paxton Tigers won at home in straight sets 25 to 10 and 25 to 19. Leading the team offensively against Paxton was senior Chelsea Sowle with four points (one ace). Sophomore Christina Daniels had two points, and senior Anna Griffiths, juniors Alex Lundvall and Paige Aylward, and sophomore Mickayla Sheets each had one point. Leading the team with set assists were Griffiths with six and Lundvall with four. Defensively, Daniels led the team with two kills and two blocks, and Sowle with four blocks. Senior Katelyn Melton and junior Sara Hubbard each had three kills, and freshman Abbey Rohde had two kills.Wallace vs Potter-Dix The Cats' second opponent was the Coyotes from Potter-Dix. The Wildcats started out strong, determined to improve on their night. The Lady Cats won the first set, and were leading in the second, but they allowed the Coyotes back into the match. In the end the Coyotes were able to defeat the Wildcats in three sets 25-19, 21-25, and 17-25. Leading the team offensively against the Tigers was Rohde (five aces) with 12 points. Hubbard had seven points (two aces), Daniels (one ace) and Sheets each had five points, Lundvall had two points, and Sowle had one point. Leading the team with set assists was Lundvall with five, followed by Griffiths, senior Rachel Marquardt, Daniels and Rohde each with two. Defensively, Melton led the team with five kills and two blocks, followed by Daniels with one kill and four blocks. Hubbard had three kills and one block, Rohde had two kills and two blocks, and Sowle had one kill and two blocks.HomecomingWallace vs Hayes Center On Friday night the Wildcats played host to the Hayes Center Cardinals for Homecoming. The Lady Cats started out strong; ready to make a statement. The Cardinals battled back and forced the Cats to dig deep to win a tough set. The second set saw a repeat of the first, but the Cats played hard, and refused to let the Cardinals gain any kind of a lead. After two tough sets the Cardinals seemed deflated as the Wildcats continued to build momentum. The Lady Cats defeated the Cardinals, for their first home win of the season, in straight sets 25-23, 26-24, and 25-17. When asked about the match, Coach Strand said, "The girls passed well, set well, and hit well." She added, "We were talking and working together as a team, and it was a great win for us." Offensively, Lundvall and Hubbard led the team each with 10 points (one ace), followed by Rohde who had eight points (two aces). Sheets (one ace) and Sowle each had six points, and Daniels had one point. Leading the team with set assists was Lundvall with 14, followed by Griffiths with nine, Marquardt with six, Rohde with four, and Sheets and sophomore Morgan Messersmith each with one. Leading the cats defensively Friday night was Daniels with 16 kills and one block. Sowle had four kills and three blocks, Melton had five kills, Hubbard had four kills, and Rohde had two kills and one block. Next Action The Lady Cats hosted Brady and Maywood at the Wallace triangular on Tuesday, Sept. 25th. On Friday, Sept. 28, the ladies will travel to face the Brady Eagles.

(SportsNetwork.com) - It doesn't appear a root canal will stop Kyrie Irving
from playing Friday, when the Cleveland Cavaliers open a five-game western
road trip against the Utah Jazz.
While it's highly likely Irving will play against the Jazz, Cleveland newcomer
Luol Deng is expected to make his debut in Salt Lake City. The Cavs acquired
two-time All-Star Deng from the Chicago Bulls early Tuesday morning in
exchange for center Andrew Bynum, who was promptly waived, along with a first
round pick and a pair of second rounders.
"I'm just excited ... it's something new for me and I'm really looking forward
to the challenge," Deng said after Wednesday's practice. "I want to work hard
and I want to fit in as much as I can. I want to turn it around, I want to
help the guys win games and just have a positive attitude towards everything."
Deng averaged 19.0 points and 6.9 rebounds over 23 games for the Bulls this
season and is expected to start Friday.
The Cavaliers are coming off Tuesday's 111-93 victory over the Philadelphia
76ers and won for just the second time in their last 10 games. C.J. Miles made
10 3-pointers to set the franchise record and scored 34 points, while Irving
had 16 points after missing the previous three games with a bruised left knee.
"You feel like all you got to do is get a look at the basket and it's going to
go in," Miles said. "Everything just feels like you're in the gym by yourself
basically and you know guys are looking for you."
Anderson Varejao scored 18 points to go with 14 rebounds for the Cavs, who
were without guard Jarrett Jack (back spasms) for the second game in a row. He
is questionable against the Jazz.
Cleveland has lost five in a row on the road, has a 2-15 record away from
Quicken Loans Arena and will also visit Sacramento, the Los Angeles Lakers,
Portland and Denver on the upcoming journey.
Utah recorded an improbable 112-101 home triumph over the mighty Oklahoma City
Thunder on Tuesday, as Gordon Hayward poured in a career-high 37 points on 13-
of-16 shooting and grabbed 11 rebounds to go with seven assists.
"I was in the zone a little bit. It is finally good to be there. It has been a
rough season shooting for me," said Hayward, who had 17 points in the fourth
quarter and 25 in the second half.
Derrick Favors and Marvin Williams netted 15 and 12 points, respectively, for
Utah, which won for the sixth time in the last 10 games and is unbeaten in the
previous four home games. The Jazz, who are 7-10 in Salt Lake City, shot 58.8
percent from the field versus the Thunder.
Utah won despite Kevin Durant's 48 points.
The Jazz and Cavaliers are meeting for the first time since splitting a pair
of contests a season ago. Utah has won six of the last seven games in this
series and is unbeaten in the last four matchups at home.
Cleveland has lost 19 of 23 trips to the Beehive State.

Welcoming May, harbinger of happier days
(Page 2 of 3)
Besides the month-long commemorations, every day in May has an honor associated with it. May 2 is Baby Day. As I said, you have to love this month. Who's going to argue with Baby Day? My very own baby was born on May 5, 39 years ago.
Of course, not everyone can be expected to jump on board for Save the Rhino Day on May 1, but there aren't that many of them left in the wild, so, hard on the heels of Earth Day, it's a good thing to raise awareness.
The first Friday in May is … you guessed it, International Tuba Day. You'd never find this in January. The tuba, in all its exuberance, is clearly a springtime uber-instrument.
May 16 is Love a Tree Day, and I confess to loving several trees, unconditionally. My favorite is the one that has been standing on my front lawn for as long as I've lived here, 41 years. A huge multi-branched maple, it has hosted bird families and climbing kids and aggressive squirrels that have leapt from its branches to the roof and eventually into our attic. As the seasons turn, so does the tree, my sentinel, the leafy anchor to our little piece of America.
On another note, May hosts Be a Millionaire Day, very popular among everyone with a pulse. There is Learn About Composting Day, not a crowd pleaser, National Macaroon Day, Tap Dance Day, National Escargot Day, Visit Your Relatives Day and Lumpy Rug Day. Yeah, I had to research that one. Lumpy Rug Day, on May 3, isn't about rugs. It's a day on which people are encouraged to look at the facts in their lives that they have shoved under the rug. This could lead to Immediate Divorce Day, but that's not on the calendar.
Prepare to bust loose because May 14 is Dance Like a Chicken Day. (I'm hoping for a flash mob event.) On a more sedate note, Don't Fry Day, promoting sun safety, is set for May 24. Wearing sunscreen and putting it on our kids are among the few pro-active things we can do to avoid getting cancer. So let's just do it.
Of course, we have the traditional May days, Mother's Day and Memorial Day, but these other, low-profile events carry a certain cachet. How can you pull on your Thorlos on May 8? It's No Sox Day, buddy, followed on May 9 by Lost Sox Day. (Look in the washing machine.)

Constituency Responses
Summary: All constituencies were generally supportive of at least some of the provisions; most had specific comments.
Places in certain federations: Agreement on former USSR/Yugoslavia; ACOC disagrees on removing Malaysia. Need ALA position.
No strong feelings. If the JSC consults with the National Library of Malaysia, as ACOC suggests, and they express a preference for the current practice, we can probably continue to live with it. --Robert J. Rendall 12:19, 15 October 2012 (PDT)
ALA's position was stated in the proposal: that Malaysia should be removed from the instruction. --John Hostage 21:07, 15 October 2012 (PDT) (AALL)
I am coming late to this discussion, but I would like to point out that the authorized form of name for USSR is "Soviet Union". I think to be consistent with other names in this chapter, it needs to be changed to "Soviet Union".
I am surprised "Russia (Federation)" wasn't included in the RDA chapter 220.127.116.11. The jurisdiction (Federation) used as a qualifier (to distinguish between "Russia", LC-established name for the country that existed until 1917) presents some problems in establishing geographic places and corporate names too.
Larisa Walsh, CC:DA, Oct. 22, 2012
RDA instructions don't necessarily use the same form of country name as the LC/NAF; the instructions have United Kingdom and U.S.S.R. where we use Great Britain and Soviet Union. Russia (Federation) isn't in 18.104.22.168 because we don't follow the "federation" practice described here for Russia. --Robert J. Rendall 11:45, 22 October 2012 (PDT)
Places in the Republic of Ireland: Agreement; LC suggests that Isle of Man and Channel Islands can also be removed.
I think it's probably OK to remove the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man from 126.96.36.199 as long as one or both are added as examples under the new 18.104.22.168; note that LC's proposed text has the Isle of Man there. --Robert J. Rendall 12:19, 15 October 2012 (PDT)
If the Channel Islands and Isle of Man are removed from 184.108.40.206, the heading and appropriate text can be changed to say "United Kingdom" instead of listing all the countries. LC's comments on the Waterville example are a reflection on the LC/NACO authority file and the example currently in RDA, not on our proposal. --John Hostage 21:07, 15 October 2012 (PDT) (AALL)
Note that if we remove the explicit instruction to treat the Channel Islands as a top-level jurisdiction, all current headings for places in the Channel Islands will be affected, since there is no real jurisdiction called "Channel Islands" and the islands actually consist of two separate Crown Dependencies with no common institutions, the Bailiwicks of Jersey and Guernsey. The headings for Jersey and Guernsey will be unqualified, and all smaller places will be qualified by one or the other rather than by (Channel Islands). --Robert J. Rendall 14:15, 16 October 2012 (PDT)
Overseas territories and insular areas: General agreement, but concerns about terminology; ACOC prefers "Islands and island groups"; LC prefers "Overseas territories, dependencies, etc." Need ALA position.
As we've discussed earlier, limiting this practice to "islands" would not cover French Guiana or Gibraltar, which need to be included. I agree that using the US-specific legal term "insular areas" could be problematic and would be happy to adopt LC's suggested wording here. --Robert J. Rendall 12:19, 15 October 2012 (PDT)
No problem with LC's terminology, but I do not agree with reinstating island territories like Guam and Puerto Rico in the instruction for places in the U.S. Catalogers cannot be expected to determine the administrative status of every overseas territory, etc., in order to know which instruction to consult to determine its preferred name. --John Hostage 21:07, 15 October 2012 (PDT) (AALL)
I like LC's terminology the best -- Dominique Bourassa, CC:DA, Oct. 19, 2012
Qualifiers for Places in China: BL, CCC, CILIP, DNB, LC agree to the Optional Addition (LC with reservations); ACOC prefers that this be the general instruction, not an option. Several commented on need to clarify terminology. Comments?
I think this should remain an option, as we have proposed. I'm not sure whether ACOC wants this to be the general instruction for all countries (? for some small ones including a first level administrative division, if one even exists, would serve no useful purpose at all) or just for a prescribed list of countries, but I would not pursue either idea.
LC is correct that this could get complicated in some contexts and agencies applying this option will need to do so consistently following clear guidelines. If LC/NACO is unenthusiastic we may not see this in our own catalogs any time soon, but I think we should still provide the option in RDA. --Robert J. Rendall 12:51, 15 October 2012 (PDT)
Agree with Robert. In a shared authority file a common policy should be followed. One comment questioned the term "first-level administrative division." Whatever term is used, it could be defined in the glossary. I couldn't find an internationally accepted term, e.g. in ISO. We could change it to the term used in GeoNames, "First-order administrative division," defined as "a primary administrative division of a country, such as a state in the United States." --John Hostage 21:07, 15 October 2012 (PDT) (AALL)
I think it should remain an option. But I think it should be a general instruction for all countries. Some cataloging agencies might want to follow this option because it might have less of an impact on their own legacy data. -- Dominique Bourassa, CC:DA, Oct. 19, 2012
Abbreviations of place names: All agree to deletion of V.I.; ACOC, BL, CILIP, DNB agree to removing all abbreviations for place names, CCC and LC concerned about impact on legacy data.
Given that we're committing ourselves to investigating more far-reaching changes to the way we treat relationships among places sometime soon, I don't think now is the right time to revise current instructions in ways that that will require libraries to start making extensive global changes to replace abbreviated qualifiers in current headings. --Robert J. Rendall 11:32, 17 October 2012 (PDT)
I think we should look into eliminating abbreviations. I know it would have a huge impact on our legacy data and would involve a lot of work. But at the same time, keeping abbreviations means we are only think about our own legacy data. Other agencies might not use such abbreviations. In an international standard, it does not make sense to impose abbreviations that have an Anglo-American bias. That's also why I feel that the instructions in 220.127.116.11.2, etc. are not good the way they are now. We should remove all Anglo-American bias in there. I understand that we cannot apply these instructions to every federation. But the instructions could be more of an option saying not to record the larger jurisdiction for certain federations. An LC-PCC PS would tell us here to follow this option for Canada, United States, etc. This would give the option for other agencies to apply these instructions to Federation that make sense to them. For example, Germany may want to apply this option to Germany and other Federations in Europe or in German speaking countries. At the moment the instructions put too much emphasis on the Anglo-American tradition. As soon as more agencies translate RDA, I am sure there will be more complaints with these instructions. -- Dominique Bourassa, CC:DA, Oct. 19, 2012
Further work: All were encouraging; BL, DNB and LC in particular expressed a preference for treating larger/smaller places as relationships.
ACOC expressed a general desire for a single set of instructions that could be applied to all countries -- in the interests of international consistency.
-- John Attig/JSC Rep 2012/10/10

H Guys :)
Brand new Zimbra NE user. Busy deploying on our 100 user network. So far, navigating my way through the features, trying to visualize how best to use on our network.
One feature I'd really like to suggest, which I don't think is currently available, is an online spreadsheet/excel editor similar to google Docs. I have noticed there is a text editor, but no spreadsheet. Something where my users can enter their comments, and just save it over the same file, without having to download/upload.
Many Thanks!

St. Petersburg, FL (Sports Network) - Ryan Roberts' go-ahead two-run single
was part of a four-run seventh inning that lifted the Tampa Rays to a 6-3 win
over the San Diego Padres in the opener of a three-game interleague set.
Matt Joyce tallied two hits and scored twice for Tampa Bay, which plated six
unanswered runs.
Starter Alex Cobb struck out 13 batters, but lasted just 4 2/3 innings after
surrendering three runs on five hits and two walks. Jake McGee (1-2) tossed a
scoreless seventh to pick up the win.
Will Venable and Carlos Quentin smacked solo homers for the Padres, who had
their four-game winning streak snapped.

Students arrive in my courses with a lifetime of personal observations of various cultures and social stimuli at work. I have the privilege of using students' observations as part of the content of my courses, in order to stimulate questions regarding how we think and learn and how we construct knowledge about ourselves and about others.
The courses I contribute to the SEB curriculum lend themselves to learning through experience, which naturally extends beyond the campus of UWB. Students in one course may be required to see firsthand how our education system reproduces class hierarchy by observing schools in Seattle's various neighborhoods. We investigate the nature of "gendered apparel" at Nordstroms, K-Mart and REI, critique the construction of "reality" by comparing news topics in different news sources, examine white women's and black women's magazines for beauty ideals and observe the increased objectification of men's bodies in clothing catalogues. Our search for America's "lost" communities has taken us to Seattle's off-leash dog parks and Oprah Winfrey's monthly book club.
By first engaging students in conversation about current social and political issues, I give them the opportunity to explore social theory through field experience. Offering students the opportunity to see for themselves how our life experiences are shaped by social categories and how such categories are culturally created opens the door to social change.

The experience of migration is my central research interest. My work in southern Africa examines the incidence and experience of return migration, as people leave Zambia's larger cities and move toward small provincial towns. Closer to home, I have recently completed research on the experiences of Ghanaians who have migrated from a small village in the Akan areas to the United States. I am interested in how gender, status and identity have been renegotiated in the wake of international migration.

Roger Federer will be featured in a series of ads for insurance company Nationale Suisse and a number of behind-the-scenes videos from the shooting of the spots have been released.
The videos, which are in Swiss German I believe (correct me if I'm wrong and please translate if you can!), showcase the 13-time Grand Slammer in different scenarios wearing different duds including a suited up Fed speaking with a gathering of colleagues and standing next to a car speaking with a woman, and a casual Rog playing with some kids and attending a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Say what you want about his ego/personality (and you usually do - one way or the other) but the man can work a scrumptiously tailored suit - wowzers.
Fed looks absolutely stunning in these spots with nary a hair out of place (can I borrow it for a day?) and the clothes fitting perfectly.

Hot Damn!!!ReplyDelete
Hey Rich!ReplyDelete
I think the ads are in German. . .I pestered a German friend for assistance in translating. But not wanting to drive my friend nuts, I only pushed him for the general gist, which is basically "If you aren't as perfect as Roger Federer, you might want to buy some insurance." In the last spot you have, Roger mentions how he doesn't like taking risks, except for driving fast cars, and that his biggest fear is skydiving. . . mmmhmmm.
Agree with you on the suit and hair angle, of course! And I for one like his personality and ego just fine :)
I love Roger I think he has such charisma and sexiness about him. He has to be the second best dressed man in sport behind David Beckham. I love his style he is always so slick, tailored and chic.ReplyDelete
Goodness, this man is so suave, articulate and sexy. I love him; he's perfect. I don't live in Switzerland or need insurance but I want to buy what he's selling.ReplyDelete
- DeniseMarch 4, 2009 at 9:21 PM
Okay, okay--even I can admit he looks good in these ads....but the cougar in the car is just a STRANGE dynamic. Where the heck is Mirka??????ReplyDelete
Roger is HANDSOME! DAMN!!!!!!ReplyDelete
Roger gorgeous :) And after all, he HAS earned the right to an ego, though that doesn't mean he should keep flaunting it all over the place. Miss the long, sexy locks, however. And I reckon his personality's all right. Unfortunately, bet he's still afraid of Rafa now, dammit. :) Either way, love the man.ReplyDelete

American Action Network's targeted advertising and the redistricting wars.
It's interesting. If you look at these two ads from American Action Network – one for California, and one for New York – solely from the perspective of a national observer, it's a headscratcher as to why a conservative-leaning group is targeting six Democratic Members of Congress (Tim Bishop, Lois Capps, John Garamendi, Jerry McNerney, Bill Owens, & Louise Slaughter) in two Blue States; particularly | Read More »

San Jose, CA (Sports Network) - Patrick Marleau continued his torrid start to
the season, scoring two of the Sharks' four third-period goals, and San Jose
rallied to beat the Phoenix Coyotes, 5-3, in its home opener at HP Pavilion.
Joe Thornton registered a goal and three assists for the Sharks, who opened
the season with wins at Calgary and Edmonton.
Steve Sullivan had a goal and an assist for Phoenix, which squandered a 3-1
lead in the third. Jason LaBarbera, starting in place of Mike Smith, stopped
30 shots.
Smith missed the game with a lower-body injury suffered in Wednesday's home
win over Columbus.

This might not be the best place to post, but I'll try 8)
We're migrating a customer from Domino 5 to ZCS.
Actually, we're waiting for Outlook to be setup on the users PCs to start the migration by itself (several weeks to wait).
But, the top managers want to use ZCS' webmail (they loved the demo) for external (roaming) access.
So the idea is to setup some accounts for them in ZCS and get the accounts to "fetch" the mails from Domino's LDAP.
We have an issue with Domino's LDAP.
IMAP is enabled in Domino, the "internet password" is enabled (and known), the "external email address" is correct.
Login in Domino's LDAP is partly OK.
The user/password is OK (it throws another error when it's wrong).
But it immediatly gives an error "Code 33:29".
Obviously, no idea of what the code number means and/or how to fix it...
Any hint ?

R07 Racing Cylinder Heads - New Power For ChevroletWritten by on May 15, 2007 Complete Race Engines Are Still Hidden Behind Locked Doors, But We Got A Sneak Peek At Chevrolet's New R07 Racing Heads
If you haven't kept your ear to the ground, you may not have heard that Chevrolet has been developing a new racing engine for the past few years. It was kept quiet as GM worked to create the successor to the SB2.2 for NASCAR's Nextel Cup Series.
The engine, known as the R07, has finally been approved by NASCAR for Cup competition and should start showing up in cars after Daytona. It may take a bit, but Chevrolet will almost certainly make this new technology available to any racer willing to pony up the cash for the components. Although designed primarily for Cup competition, the SB2.2 has found its way into many different racing classes, especially dirt Late Models. We even know a team that's racing a detuned SB2.2 in an IMCA-style Modified (you can get pretty good deals on used Cup parts if you know the right places to look), and we expect the R07 to be no different.
With that in mind, we wanted to give you an inside look at the new cylinder heads for this motor. These heads are a clean-sheet design and not an evolution of the SB2.2 cylinder heads. MBE Cylinder Heads and Manifolds performs a good deal of R&D work for several top Nextel Cup teams as well as building head/manifold combinations for many Saturday night racers. Owner Matt Bieneman agreed to give us an up-close look at these new heads. GM has only recently allowed race teams to have these heads, and MBE hadn't even seen the block at press time. We are still so early in the process that when this was written, NASCAR had yet to release its final templates so that engine builders can know where the ports must be located. Still, there is a lot to be revealed about Chevy's newest race casting.
The Cup guys have a limited bore size, but this is a big deal to engine builders with a more open rule book. The R07 engine is designed with a 4.500-inch bore spacing compared to the SB2.2's 4.400 spacing. This means the opportunity for not only bigger cylinder bores, but also better cooling between the cylinders. The wider bore spacing also means there is more room for bigger valves. Bieneman says that along with the relocated bore centers, the valveguides have also been separated a bit more. He has found he can stuff a 2.225 intake and 1.600 exhaust valve in each of the combustion chambers, while the maximum valve sizes in the SB2.2 were 2.180 and 1.600, respectively. The wider bore spacing also means that when the valveguides are separated by that extra margin, shrouding shouldn't become a problem.
One of the hallmarks of the Chevy small-block has always been the valve arrangement. It places an exhaust valve at the edge of the head, followed by two intakes, two exhausts, two intakes, and the final exhaust valve (E, I, I, E, E, I, I, E). The benefit of this arrangement is that it places all four intake valves as close to the center of the head as possible and equalizes the intake port lengths. The SB2 is slightly different, with a valve formation that puts the intakes on the outside edges (I, E, I, E, E, I, E, I). Both systems, however, also place the two center exhaust ports side-by-side, which is a notorious hot spot in almost all Chevy performance engines. The heat can be such a problem that many engine builders say that it causes additional bore distortion in the two center bores.
The new heads remove this situation by rearranging the valve order. Now, it is I, E, I, E, I, E, I, E, and each exhaust valve is surrounded by an intake to help cool it. The new valve arrangement will, however, require a different lobe arrangement on the cams. Of course, it is already a given that the SB2.2 and other Chevy small-block cams will not interchange with the R07 because of the wider bore spacing.
In addition, removing the hot spot between the exhaust valves will help equalize the coolant temperature within the block, which will reduce localized movement of the material. This means better ring sealing and possibly even better sealing at the head gasket. The cool air flowing through the nearby intake ports will also help make the environment a little friendlier for the exhaust valves and seats.
In addition to the new valve arrangement, there has also been a significant change made to the ports. Almost all small-blocks from any manufacturer use a port angle of at least 10 degrees. This angle sends the air/fuel mixture through the port and into the combustion chamber on an angle so that it creates a vortex, or swirl, inside the chamber. This swirl helps keep the fuel suspended in the air so that it burns as efficiently as possible when the spark plug fires.
This new port, however, is very straight and very short. Veteran cylinder head porter Dennis Warner calls this a "low-swirl port" but believes the overall improvements in flow should outweigh the disadvantage that comes with less swirl. One trick he feels might work to increase swirl is to "twist" the port so that the walls, while still parallel, are no longer vertical. This will help produce more tumble and swirl before the air/fuel charge enters the combustion chamber.
As this feature went to press, Bieneman and Warner said that they had little information on how well the ports will actually flow because NASCAR had yet to release the templates they must work within, and actual castings are still so scarce that they cannot afford to experiment until they know the exact rules package.
Along with the straighter ports, the valve locations have also been moved closer to the side of the head. The result is that the valves are more staggered than before. This should help the rockers be more centered over the appropriate cam lobe and straighten the pushrods. Bieneman says that this change will allow the wider ports to deliver even better flow numbers.
Since the intake ports are so straight, both Bieneman and Warner believe that the intake manifold design that will work best with these heads will have a very large plenum that is extended toward both the front and back of the engine. This large plenum will help move the outside intake runners closer to the ports so that they won't have to curve as much to make the port entrance. This design will also shorten the outside runner length to help it match the length of the interior intake runners.
Of course, this short-runner/big-plenum design lends itself well to Cup racing, where the rpm is high and the power range is narrow. In a short-track car-say a dirt Late Model-the plenum can easily be decreased or even raised to increase the runner length and move the powerband lower in the rpm range. Another difficulty with a large-plenum manifold is that it reduces the signal at the carburetor. Warner says that this can be overcome, but it requires a crafty carburetor tuner.
Anyone familiar with race engines will quickly notice that the head-stud holes on the new Chevy head have been moved away from the combustion chambers. Some might even call it a "Ford-style" stud arrangement. This will definitely be a benefit, as the old stud location was so close to the cylinder bore and combustion chamber that it could cause distortion. Although we haven't seen the block, it is a good guess that the area that the head studs or bolts thread into in the block will be completely separate from the cylinder bores. This will not only ease distortion-inducing stress on the bores, but also create more room for the water jackets to provide coolant across more of the bores' area.
Since the SB2.2 was introduced in the late '90s, many teams have begun flooding the valve covers with oil to help keep the valvesprings cooler. Some say keeping the springs surrounded by oil also helps dampen damaging harmonics. To aid this, the outer rail on the R07 head has been significantly raised. If you pull your valve covers a few minutes after a run, the raised rails will catch the remaining oil and you won't drench yourself. Additionally, the oil drain-back holes are easily accessible to change out the oil restrictors for different sizes, which will aid tuning.
It appears that Chevrolet's engineers have also made another change to help racers when it comes to oil control. At the lower corners of the heads are galleries that lead from the block to the top of the head at the inside edge of the flange for the valve cover. There is even a groove for an O-ring at the topside of this gallery. It appears this will feed pressurized oil to the valve cover, which will have integrated valvespring oilers. Integrated oilers won't necessarily improve performance over existing systems, but it will eliminate exterior plumbing and simplify the system.
Finally, the R07 engine will use a valley cover that is separate from the manifold, like the SB2.2. Also, the valley cover will be wet and provide water to the cylinder heads. But unlike the SB2.2, the R07 includes separate water inlets into the head for each chamber. The SB2.2 only had inlets at the corner of the heads, which made it difficult for engine builders to get cool water to the interior exhaust valves. As a result, many were forced to plumb exterior coolant lines directly from the water pump to inject cool water into the water jacket between the two interior exhaust valves. Between the relocation of the valves and the four water passages into the cylinder head water jacket, cooling should be much improved and the external plumbing for the coolant should no longer be necessary.
Here's a trick the Cup teams have been using for a few years that MBE has begun providing to other teams. Below is an example of a cylinder head for a Sprint Car, but it will work in many different applications. Owner Matt Bieneman has gotten rid of the valve seal by using an O-ring inside the valveguide. The advantage of this is that it allows the guide to be taller (equal to the height of the top of the old valve seal) without limiting valve lift. In this application, it equals approximately 0.150 more guide height, which helps stabilize the valve. Now Bieneman can use smaller valve stems, which cuts valvetrain weight, without sacrificing stability.

The new valve arrangement of the R07 head separates every exhaust valve by placing them between intake valves. The separation will help make temperatures inside the engine more consistent, which will improve ring seal in the cylinder bores.We laid ink pens along the line between the center of the intake port opening and the center of the valve to make it easier to see the port angle. It is easy to see the port on the R07 (left) is significantly straighter than an SB2.2's. This will aid port flow but may complicate keeping the fuel in suspension.This is a big-block drag race head, but it is a good example of a "twisted" port that may provide the answer to the R07's low-swirl port design. By cutting the sides of the intake port on an angle that changes between the port entrance and the pocket, veteran head porter Dennis Warner believes that enough swirl can be built into the new ports to make them better than the SB2.2's more angled design.This manifold is for an SB2.2, but the design is a good example of what Bieneman and Warner feel will work well with the R07. The elongated plenum makes the outside runners appear shorter to the engine, balancing the runner length between the inside and outside pairs. It also has the advantage of straightening the flow path of the air/fuel charge.The raised outer rail on the head is almost certainly designed to catch oil and hold it against the springs when the valve covers are flooded. We've placed a spring on one of the spring pads for reference. Also, notice the strategic placement of the oil drain hole between the spring and the exhaust spring pad in the foreground.

To the editor:
Here we go again � another fine example of stupid is as stupid does. I�m referring to The Daily News� April 30 front-page article headlined, �Onslow flips revenue split for sales tax.�
Does the majority of our county commissioners not remember the fiasco the county went through five or six years ago? I think it led to a few of them getting replaced. For the life of me, I will never understand why politicians keep reinventing stupidity.
We had all this settled by the 60-40 split, and I think most people were OK with it; but it seems that some people must have been lobbying pretty hard to go back to 100 percent ad valorem.
Could it be that the three county commissioners who voted for this are counting on people with higher property values to bankroll their re-election? I�m sure the local governments of these beach towns are going to be working at raising property values even higher now that they know they will receive more tax revenue and, like I said at the beginning, here we go again.
I challenge any of the three county commissioners that voted for this to explain to me why people with higher property values deserve to receive more sales tax revenue than people with lower property values.
One last note: When I vote, I don�t do stupid.

Either Peter Bodo's having a tough go-of-it in the hallowed halls of TENNIS mag or he's just plain over it. But someone's having a temper tantrum.
In his blog for ESPN.com, Bodo discusses the prospects of the new ATP CEO and does his absolute worst at selling the "thankless" position to anyone with intelligence or, at the very least, someone with good intentions:
If you're hoping some new messiah will emerge to bring bliss to the ATP and tennis fans worldwide, I have news for you: It ain't gonna happen. That's because no hard-charging boy wonder (or corporate veteran) would want this job. As Etienne de Villiers learned, the ATP tribe is a restless one, constantly bickering and feuding. It is more inclined to burning its leaders at the stake than to adopting the discipline of a highly trained work force that will march toward a better future in lockstep.Wow, bitter much? I know Bodo has been around the sport since it was invented (say the 19th century) so he's seen the ups, downs, and nasty in-betweens and knows a lot of what he speaks about. But is this editorial, which will most likely have a wider audience on ESPN.com than his spindly one at TENNIS.com, helping the situation at all? Or is that the point??
Bodo ends by peering into his crystal tennis ball:
I'm predicting that the ATP won't hire a strong visionary leader, because I'm not sure any person who fits that description would want the job. The next CEO will be an "insider" who is most acceptable as a negotiator among self-interested parties. Let's be frank about this: It's a job for an I-dotter and a T-crosser, not a visionary.We get it Bodo. It's a tough role with complex challenges and separate, sparring international entities all wanting their interests accounted for and questions answered. But do you have to be such a "Negative Nancy"? It's the holidays dude. Cheer up.

As for Bodo's rant, I think it will have the opposite effect he's probably hoping for. He just sounds like an a**hole here. And if you're so pissed off about what the direction you think the ATP is heading in, why don't YOU do something about it? Or do you not have the guts to be that visionary that you so desperately want to see in this position? Put up or shut up, I say.
Once I see Rafa...all other thoughts go out of my head. Mmmm...Rafa....what was I saying? Put out in any position?? Okay, if you insist. (Good thing I work out);)
The only thing that seems to cheer Bodo up talking ad nauseum about Pete Sampras or trotting off to "the game-rich Andes" and killing things.ReplyDelete

Futures Night photos
Yesterday was a big day for Kansas City's minor league award winners…let's take a look:
The day started with community visits – our group visited a children's hospital and toured the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum.
Our award winners moved on to Kauffman Stadium, where they learned about the franchise at the Royals Hall of Fame. The next stop was batting practice, where some of the young players met a Kansas City baseball great.
For others, it was a chance to visit with some of today's Royals.
As game time neared, our award winners signed autographs for a line of happy fans.
After perfecting the penmanship, the group took center stage in a special pregame awards ceremony.
During the game, it was time to reflect on a busy day…and dream about playing at The K in the future.

|Jayvee girls win two
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
Two junior varsity wins were achieved by the HHS girls' basketball team on the weekend before the holiday break.
Holyoke JV defeated Haxtun 39-23 Friday, then squeaked by Sedgwick County 30-29 Saturday, Dec. 20. Both games were only three-quarter contests.
"I am very pleased with the progress of our younger players," said coach Arlan Scholl. The wins made it three in a row for the Dragon jayvees, as the team defeated Akron Dec. 16.
Scholl acknowledged coaches Clint Goldenstein and Rebecca Helm for their fine work with the JV and C teams.
Holyoke 39, Haxtun 26
At Haxtun on Dec. 19, Holyoke jumped ahead 18-6 after one quarter of action. But the Bulldogs bounced back to dominate 13-7 in the second, making it a six-point ball game.
A strong final quarter for the Dragons found them scoring 14 points, while holding Haxtun to only four.
Holyoke's 16-point win was a good confidence-booster for the local girls.
Mallory Bennett was hard to stop, as she managed 15 points to lead all scorers in the ball game.
Also putting up points for Holyoke were Marci Vasa with six, Molly Fricke four, Laura Gerk four, Shelby Beavers four, Kaylee Groshans four and Heather Duester two.
Scoring By Quarters
Holyoke 18 7 14 --39
Haxtun 6 13 4 --23
Holyoke 30, Sedgwick Co. 29
The Lady Dragon jayvee team played catch-up ball throughout Saturday's game at Sedgwick County, but finished in the win column, by one point.
The Cougars just couldn't be stopped in the first period when they outscored the HHS girls 20-7.
It was a tough battle back into the game, but the Dragons didn't give up. Holyoke outscored Sedgwick County 13-2 in the second and 10-7 in the final period to earn the 30-29 victory.
Leading the Dragons in their come-from-behind win were Bennett with nine points, Groshans five, Vasa four, Gerk four, KrisAnna Ham four, Duester two and Fricke two.
Gerk landed one three-pointer and Groshans was one for one from the line at Sedgwick County.
Scoring By Quarters
Holyoke 7 13 10 --30
Sedgwick County 20 2 7 --29

Bamboo is a group of woody perennial evergreen plants of the grass family. Some of its members are giant bamboo, forming by far the largest members of the grass family. Bamboo is the fastest growing woody plant in the world: up to three to four feet a day. This accelerated growth rate allows bamboo to be harvested in three to five years, far more often than the 10 to 20 year harvest cycle of most softwoods. Unlike the environmental damage caused by the deforestation of trees, proper harvesting of bamboo leaves the root system intact, creating little or no topsoil disruption. This renewable, sustainable resource produces 35% more oxygen than its equivalent in trees while reducing carbon dioxide gas that is blamed for global warming. With the tensile strength of steel, it's the strongest growing woody plant in the world.

If you're like me, you have a favorable reaction to yachts, perhaps without ever having stepped foot on one. I have absolutely no idea how I will one day acquire a yacht. All I know is that yachts and I are destined to be together some way, somehow. This amorous examination of yacht lighting exists, yes, because there are interesting things to note about yacht lighting design, but, if I'm totally honest, we're in the dog days of summer; I'm landlocked; and I want to stare at yachts. Do you want to stare at yachts, too? Let's stare at yachts in all their luminous glory.

New technologies and social media continue to reduce the costs of starting and operating a small business. These major brands make it quicker and easier to launch a company. Many of them also consider start ups to be one of their core constituencies. For the full story, see "How To Make Money Without A Job."

STERLING, Va. (WUSA) -- "To run a business you need the money flow. You need the money to buy inventory," says David Sun.
Sun has struggled to get a bank to loan him the money he needs to keep his convenience stores stocked. He says he's not alone.
"Now the economy is slow. They need help. The reason I know, you know, is that a lot of small businesses are out of business," he says.
When the bank just says no, small business owners like David can now turn to Sam's Club for that much needed capital.
"We have about 600,000 small business owners that come and shop at our stores," says Lorne McGregor.
The Sterling, Virginia, store manager says they all can apply for a loan at Sam's Club when all other conventional routes fail.
"Small business members can get anywhere, loans from $5,000 to $25,000. And with our economy the way it is, I think it will be a big help to them," he says.
Sam's Club is not the only retailer trying to lure shoppers into its aisles. Office Depot is taking their deals and discounts even further.
"We're giving away $100 gift cards to customers, $500 gift cards to teachers," says store manager Mike Lerch.
Kiren Veen wanted to take advantage of the in-store sales after she scouted deals online.
She says, "They have a really good one which was spend $75 on your supplies, and get $15 off. And they have some more which was buy one, get one free. So, when you're shopping for two kids, it's always great if you can save some money."
Finding creative ways to save consumers money is the name of the game.
Open a Target brand credit or debit card, get 5 percent off every purchase.
Sock money away in a Toys R Us holiday fund, they'll add 3 percent to the balance.
Buy a backpack at Staples, and they'll reward you with a gift card equal to its cost.
Wednesday, American Eagle kicked off a deal where you try on some jeans and get a free smartphone. You do have to purchase a two-year service plan. It's an offer they're hoping shoppers just can refuse.

SAN ANTONIO, Florida -- Early Wednesday morning, detectives and crime scene evidence technicians are expected to gather at a lake front home for the second day in a row. They expect to pull a large item out of Lake Jovita that may be related to the unsolved murder of Jennifer Odom.
On Feb. 19, 1993, 12-year-old Jennifer rode the school bus home. She got off the bus with a book bag and a clarinet case. Those items wouldn't be found for two years, dumped in a rural area in Hernando County. But Jennifer's lifeless body was found six days after she disappeared, dumped in an orange grove.
The home located at 12725 Pompanic Street has a tennis court out front and a boat house out back. The property is owned by the Keifer family, a well-known family of entrepreneurs, but renters are currently living there. Members of law enforcement spent hours behind the home along the dock on Tuesday. Divers searched the nearby waters of Lake Jovita as well.
Meanwhile, Jennifer Odom's mother and stepfather live just a few miles away from the house. 10 News stopped by their home. Jennifer's stepfather, Clark Converse, said he and his wife are on vacation. He says he stopped by their house to check on their dogs.
Converse didn't want to talk on camera, but says they've been on an emotional roller coaster every time there's a tip like this. He says they're not getting their hopes up, because at this point in their life they just can't.
Back at the Pompanic Street location, there was a steady stream of people driving by and several people walked up the crime scene to see what was going on. Dale Kirby, a father born and raised in this community, remembers Jennifer Odom's disappearance like it was yesterday.
He says, "You wonder -- every time I see that flyer you wonder -- what happened. What was going through the little girl's mind? I mean, just getting off the bus, just happy-go-lucky, and your gone."
He watched members of local law enforcement as well as the FBI focus their attention on some large object in the calm waters. He says their presence left him hopeful for some answers.
Kirby says, "You still think about it. They have posters around. They still talk about it. You wonder what could have happened. Nobody knows."
Back at the bus stop, which is located just a few hundred yards away from her home, students remembered an important clue that they'd seen, an older, blue full-size pickup truck creeping up to Jennifer.
Kirby says, "If you had a blue vehicle that matched the description, they stopped you just to check you out."
Hernando County Sheriff's Office won't say if it's that truck or something else they plan to pull up from the bottom of Lake Jovita. They say the tip to search the lake is one of hundreds of leads in the Jennifer Odom case.
Kirby says finding that truck might be the clue to finally close this case so an arrest is made. "I think for the whole community it will put their minds at ease. It's scary if it turns out to be somebody from this community."
The renters at the Keifer home didn't want to talk to 10 News Tuesday night, and several nearby neighbors declined to talk on camera out of respect for the Odom family. One man says he's praying for them to find closure soon.
Back in February of this year, on the 20th anniversary of Jennifer Odom's death, Hernando County Sheriff Al Nienhuis assigned a detective specifically to her case in the hopes of solving her murder.

Possible 5.15a by Steve McClure
British stalwart Steve McClure has added what is possibly another 5.15a link-up to the imposing limestone crag of Malham Cove, near Yorkshire, England. McClure's new line links the beginning of Bat Route (5.14b) into a previously unclimbed 5.14c section of stone, then finishes on the top of Bat Route. McClure named his new route Batman and suggests 9a/9a+ [5.14d/5.15a] for the grade. "It doesn't matter what '9' it is; 9a, 9a+ or 9b is just off the pace," wrote McClure on 8a.nu. "However, it's not a bad thing to put some kind of marker on a route. It's up to the first ascensionist to at least have a stab; in a way it's their duty."
McClure bolted Batman in 2010, however, his initial goal was to link into the new section of 5.14c climbing via his 2003 route Rainshadow (5.14d). McClure considers this project—dubbed The Easy Easy—to be significantly harder. "Through Rainshadow was too far for me this season, but showed the difficulty, as when trying this way I was climbing through the Rainshadow crux 2 or 3 times a day," said McClure. "Pleasing; as when I climbed Rainshadow I only ever made it through the crux twice. This shows real progress with my climbing, and that the new line is considerably harder, whichever start was used!"
Here is a great video by Alastair Lee of McClure climbing Rainshadow (5.14d).

Hi folks.
I'm test driving a new Zimbra 5 beta install, with an eye towards moving 150 users away from Groupwise 6.5.3.
Unfortunately, the migration tool (ZCSGroupwiseMigrationWizard-5.0.0_BETA3_1224.exe) fails to transfer any mail, although it does copy the folder structure of the source mailbox correctly.
I get lots and lots of (for example):
13-09-2007 09:20:53 [11528]: (MI): WARNING: Message skipped, Failed to get Mail Interface Sub(Agenda for Sept. 22 Board Meeting), d(Tue, 11 Sep 2007 13:55:29 -0000), fid(002)
For what it's worth, the migration tool is being run by a user with tree admin privileges on a workstation running Netware client version 126.96.36.19950819 against a Netware 6.5 server running Groupwise 6.5.3.
Anybody have any thoughts as to what a next step might be? Thanks!

Hi again,
I've been a little surprised with how much emphasis has been put on hypocrisy throughout discussions over this board and throughout the sports media in general.
I have to admit that I haven't been used to such reactions over the issue of hypocrisy, especially not to the point of dismissing others actions or words over such a simple and basically human issue as hypocrisy. I mean, if we stopped listening wherever we see hypocrisy, we'd be stuck not even listening to our own selves, no ? I thought I must either be dumb for not seeing how much of a problem hypocrisy is, or, I'm a bit self conscious of my own hypocrisy and accepting, to a certain point, of other's own hypocrisy... (I know you'll reply "you're dumb", but anyway...).
I've been reading a few things on hypocrisy this afternoon... Here's an interesting statement I fell uppon...
(1) Hypocrisy is not simply failing to practice those virtues that one preaches. Samuel Johnson made this point when he wrote about the misuse of the charge of "hypocrisy" in Rambler No. 14:
Nothing is more unjust, however common, than to charge with hypocrisy him that expresses zeal for those virtues which he neglects to practice; since he may be sincerely convinced of the advantages of conquering his passions, without having yet obtained the victory, as a man may be confident of the advantages of a voyage, or a journey, without having courage or industry to undertake it, and may honestly recommend to others, those attempts which he neglects himself.

1970 Plymouth Barracuda - TerracudaWritten by on April 1, 2010 Contributors: Randy Lorentzen Chip Foose Builds A Muscle Car With Nods To The Past And The Present
When Chip Foose debuts a new car, it rarely receives anything other than praise and adulation. As a matter of fact, the cars that have come out of the Huntington Beach, California-based Foose Design in the last 10 years have become the standard by which the hobby is judged, at least by the world at large. There's a reason he's a household name-and it's not just all the TV shows. Well, Chip has done it again and pulled another ace out of his deck with a muscle car flair. You are looking at Terracuda, a '70 Plymouth Barracuda built for a car collector. Darren Metropoulos is a car guy, but in the I-have-a-'67-Shelby-Cobra-with-2,200-miles-built-out-of-titanium sort of way. Darren is the kind of guy we all wish we could be: the kind who has a ton of dough-enough to have an airplane collection-and the willingness to spend it on cars. Until now he has only bought cars with legitimate history, but with Terracuda, he and Chip are creating history.
The first thing you notice is the paintjob. If you said to someone, "I just saw Foose's new car and it's...brown," they may look at you weird. Brown? Really? Was it a mistake? A move made out of hubris? Nope, it was made because the owner liked a watch. Darren had a new Brietling watch that he loved. In case you don't know, Brietling makes very expensive timepieces that you're not going to find at Wal-Mart. John Travolta does the company's ads, and John Travolta doesn't do ads. Anyway, Darren loved the anodized gold/brown/tan face of this one watch and wanted his Barracuda to be the same colors. He sent Chip the watch and said, "Match it." Working with BASF, Chip started boiling, mixing, and putting precious metals into a beaker and came up with the Terracuda Brown.
As with all high-end builds, this one had its special touches. The front wheels were moved forward 2 inches to stretch the wheelbase and put the wheels exactly where they need to be in the wheel openings, giving the car a faster look-like the body is trying to keep up with the chassis. Moving the wheel location also provided extra clearance to lower the car. Original '70 Barracudas are difficult to lower because the inner wheelwells and the hood hinges will hit the front tire, so Chip's crew had to build new hinges and reengineer the way the hood opened to get the stance as wicked as it is. The problem with reengineering one thing is you have to then fix the thing next to it, and the thing next to that, and then next to that . . . until you end up calling the suicide hotline.
The 6.4L Hemi crate motor also presented a challenge, since it's taller than the 318 that originally came in the car and wouldn't fit under the hood with the crate's stock intake that Chip wanted to retain. A clay model of a scoop was therefore made and turned into steel by Marcel to clear the engine and look right at the same time. Looking at it from the front, the reveal in this amazing piece of metalwork flows from the split in the grille as if it were a wake made by the fish the car is named after. Other body mods are numerous: The custom floor and rear tubs are made out of 14-gauge steel and raised 2 inches, the bumpers and quarter-panels were reshaped, the grille is custom, and the rocker panels have been extended and welded to the Art Morrison frame under the car to make a ridiculously stiff structure that feels like a car of today, not like the '70s stiff-as-licorice unibodies.
The inside is just as amazing as the outside, with custom interior panels covered in luscious leather. Other than the Cobra seats, the look is very '70s Barracuda but with a definite modern sensibility-just like the rest of the car. A lot of guys will take a car like this and go hog-wild with digital gauges, a tub job, a full-on Pro Touring attitude, and an obvious paintjob in one of the four accepted hot rod colors. A car done that way would be looked at but not studied. It would be cool for its time, but not timeless. Chip and the people he works with and inspires also inspire him to take chances andbuild the next level-to search for something new and different.
To push all the envelopes yet keep this car simultaneously classic and futuristic is a testament to the excellence that is present at Foose Design. The design pays homage to the Barracuda legend, and the Terracuda Brown reminds one of the avocado refrigerators and shag carpet of the '70s, yet the motor and wheels jump the car forward to be the new-millennium muscle car Chip and Darren envisioned. The style heightened, the history honored, and the future looked toward, Terracuda is a milestone. The muscle car bar has been reset.

Currie built the 9-inch and Chip hung it with a four-link and coilovers. Also shown are the Magnaflow cans and stainless fuel tank.Custom interior panels were made out of handformed aluminum and carbon fiber, and everything was swaddled in Ferrari saddle and distressed mocha leather. Yummy. The seats are from Cobra and the belts are from Crow Enterprises. The back seat has been omitted.The slammed stance is possible thanks to judicious metalwork and the Morrison chassis. The stock mirrors say 1970, while the smoothed and tucked body says 2010. Also check out the hood-the engine was too high in the chassis to fit under the stock hood, so Tim Fitzpatrick clay-modeled a new one and then the famous Marcel handformed a steel scoop based on the clay model. They even replicated the inner hood structure so it looks like a stamped factory piece. Chip wanted the hood to have a cowl-induction look with a hard-core Mopar feel. The driving lights are from PIAA.It wouldn't be a Chip car if there weren't a million subtle body mods. Look closely at what he did with the driprails to retain functionality, but in a much better look than the car originally had.The spectacular 19- and 20-inch wheels are appropriately called Fishtails and are so epic that they have been added to the Foose wheel line. The tires are from Pirelli.
