Columbia Pike
Columbia Pike reflects Arlington's diversity with its unique blend of housing, local shops and a large concentration of ethnic restaurants. The Pike is often described as Arlington's "Main Street," and that was exactly the vision defined through an intensive community-based planning effort for the area.
Columbia Pike stretches for more than three miles across Arlington, from Arlington Cemetery and Fort Myer in the east, all the way to Arlington's western border with Fairfax County. It is the busiest bus transit corridor in Virginia. Already home to more than 17 percent of Arlington's population, the Pike is expected to add 7,300 residents, 3,900 homes, 7,000 jobs, and 2.2 million square feet of new commercial space by 2040.

Windows* 7 with Intel® Atom™ Processor Z6xx-based Platforms: Guide
This document provides guidance for installing Windows* 7 and Windows Embedded Standard 7 operating systems on platforms based on the Intel® Atom™ processor Z670/Z650 with Intel® SM35 Express chipset. This document also gives step-by-step instructions on where to download the chipset, I2C, wireless, and graphics driver package from Intel and how to properly install the GMA600 graphics and chipset drivers from Intel under the aforementioned Microsoft operating systems.
The information in this document has been validated with the Intel® Customer Reference Board, codenamed 'Alpine Bay', which is included in the Intel Atom processor Z670/Z650 with Intel SM35 Express chipset Development Kit. However, the recommendations in this quick start guide are applicable to any Intel platform integrating the Intel Atom processor Z670/Z650 paired with Intel SM35 Express chipset (codenamed 'Oak Trail') and based on Windows 7 or Windows Embedded Standard 7.
For customers evaluating or using the Development Kit as a basis for their embedded design, and Windows 7 or Windows Embedded Standard 7 as their operating system, this document is the primary guidance Intel provides for installing the drivers and operating system to deliver optimized performance.
Three additional and crucial components are common in an Intel Atom processor Z670/Z650 with Intel SM35 Express chipset design: one or two ranks of DDR2-800 memory devices, an embedded controller (the Nuvoton* NPCE791EA0DX is highly recommended), and a Power Management IC solution.

5 days is a record for a pregame thread. Settle down.
Its going to be a long week as a fan, but I think as we saw for the Kansas game it can be very beneficial for Fred to craft up his game plan
Winning at K State puts ISU in the running to win the Big 12 (I think we can take KU at home and they will lose at least one more...) It's a big game on Saturday and as others have said - Fred will put together a great game plan!
two shots from top 10 ranking... lets get em in the little apple.
Deal with it.
This certainly seems like a case of premature Ejim elation.
so who is taking a hilton magic flag and a nigerian flag to the octagon??

This is our last shot guys... at a quality win on the road!
Yes, Freddie will have a great game plan...
Let's just hope for a fast start whilst we execute this great game plan! Go Cyclones!!!
It'd be great if we could get like a 15+ point win on the road. Two blow out wins over good Big 12 teams would really go a long ways towards getting better then an 8/9 seed in the tourney. I'd so much rather be a 10 seed then 8/9. Even the 6 or 5 seed is pretty difficult.
I hate K-State. I hope we murder them, Ray Lewis style.

Video: Proposed amendment gives parking laws some teeth
Video: Parking Bill of Rights law may get more teeth
ATLANTA -- After Atlanta City Council adopted 11Alive's Parking Bill of Rights and made it law, questions about how to enforce that law began to surface.
Wednesday, the Council's Transportation Committee will discuss a proposed amendment designed to give that new law some teeth.
The amendment proposed by Councilman Lamar Willis includes:
* PARKatlanta maintain all parking related signage in right-of-way.
* PARKatlanta must provide an online process for filing complaints on its website.
* PARKatlanta must respond to all online complaints within 2 days.
* PARKatlanta must share with the City all complaints, as well as PARKatlanta's response.
* PARKatlanta must have a specific phone number dedicated solely to questions and complaints.
* Amendment calls for improved employee training that is approved by city
Citations may not be issued:
* Where meters are non-functioning.
* Where unclear, conflicting, or hidden signage is in place.
* Where signage needs to be repaired, replaced, or relocated
* Where signage is not installed, has been removed, or is otherwise missing from metered area.
If a ticket is issued in any of these cases, the ticket shall be promptly voided by PARKatlanta once they are made aware.
As a result of these concessions, PARKatlanta will pay the City $5.3 million annually instead of $5.5 million.

Shock Absorber Clearance Issues - Shockingly EasyWritten by on January 4, 2008 How To Solve Shock Absorber Clearance Issues With Some Good, Old-Fashioned Hot Rod Ingenuity
With all the components and systems that have to be squeezed under a car during the build process, it's no wonder many of them want to occupy the same space, sometimes turning what is supposed to be a hobby for most into a hair-pulling packaging nightmare. Careful planning and building in a sequence can eradicate most of these problems. For instance, in the case we are going to examine, mounting shock absorbers before fabricating the exhaust system would have been the answer. But this was a finished car, brought into Circle City Hot Rods for an upgrade in the shock department, so planning for clearance issues wasn't an option here.
A very nice, on-the-road '36 Ford three-window equipped with a Durant Enterprises monoleaf spring, its owner wanted to upgrade from the stock lever arm friction shocks to tube type. With an early aftermarket conversion kit already in his possession, this should have been as simple as bolting the new shocks in place, but clearance issues with the exhaust system meant the shocks could not be fitted where the kit was designed to place them-inside the chassis 'rails.
After some head-scratching and spending some time studying the underside of the coupe, Circle City's Jimmy White came up with a solution that involved mounting the lower shock mount on the spring shackle, and fabricating an upper mount that would bolt to the outer chassis 'rail, allowing plenty of clearance between the shock and the inner tire sidewall. Incidentally, if you're experiencing similar clearance issues, CCHR is about to start offering these upper and lower mounts for sale, part of an upcoming product line from the company. Contact Circle City Hot Rods for more details.
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
Here are the stock lever arm friction shocks, as well as the cause of our problem. The exhaust systemmeans the new tube shocks cannot pass up and inside the chassis 'rails, necessitating scratch-built mounts.The lower shock mounts started off as these readily available shock studs, and then the threaded section was removed from one end in the lathe.You may have noticed a hole drilled in the plate welded to the stud. This allowed the plate to be rosette-welded to the shackle plate.Here are the rare early accessory tube shock mounts for the '36, which unfortunately could not be used since the exhaust system allowed insufficient clearance.Circle City's Jimmy White installed new urethane bushings in the bracket and spring, and then fitted the fabricated lower mount/shackle.The studs are then welded to these fabricated plates, which are slightly larger than the spring shackle plates picked up from Pete & Jake'Sn (shown here with the bushings removed).With the '36 supported at ride height on jackstands under both the chassis and axle, the original shackle plates were removed (these can be unbolted from the shackle pins, unlike the aftermarket versions) and the shackle pins drifted from the bracket that is part of the axle casing.The SO-CAL Speed Shop chrome tube shock was then mounted to determine the shape, size, and location of the upper mount. With the shock mounted to the shackle, it means it will be perpendicular to the axle and will travel as closely as possible to the gentle arc that the axle will travel in under suspension movement.
Jimmy made cardboard templates (seen to the right) for a mounting plate to attach to the chassis 'rail, and another for one side of the shock bracket.Here's the shock, loosely mounted, bolted to the upper and lower mounts to check clearance and\ travel. A second plate was trimmed and bolted to the chassis using existing holes, which will form the mount for the upper bracket.The second side of the mounting bracket could now be fabricated, and cardboard was again used as a template. Jimmy used a transfer punch to mark the cardboard in exactly the right position for the hole to be drilled.Here's what it looked like on the bench after welding both sides of the bracket, as well as a gusset plate fabricated.The brackets are then cut out using a bandsaw and cleaned up with a belt sander. Once the shock mounting hole was drilled, both sides of the bracket were hit with this countersink tool for a neat, burr-free finish.

I'm not worried about something like this right now but down the line, I could see him taking a NBA job. Of course, that's after he's won a couple national titles at ISU.
"If I had to make a hire this year, [Hoiberg] would be one of the first calls I'd make," one NBA general manager told Yahoo! Sports on Sunday. "He is a natural for our league."
"Two GMs who expect to have openings told Yahoo! Sports that they planned to feel out Hoiberg's interest in the NBA once they begin search processes."
Last edited by BigJCy; 03-24-2013 at 05:22 PM.
That didn't take long...
It won't be only NBA teams. UCLA, Syracuse and any other high profile schools with possible openings will be after him. Need to give him another large raise to keep him here.
Don't kill the messsenger!
I just saw this story on the front page of Yahoo and I thought I'd pass it along. I know it's a bad time and I don't want Fred going anywhere either, but it seems the suspicions that he would garner interest as an NBA head coach are proving true. Possibly sooner than we thought.
I can't imagine him leaving though, espically after the way this season ended.
Never going to happen!! Hoiberg is here to stay at Iowa State, already is set financially as he was in the NBA for 10 years and few more in an NBA front office!!! Hoiberg wants Iowa State to win a national championship!!!
No worries, he is staying for a while.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. - Benjamin Franklin 1775
Get used to it. On the other end, we won't have to worry about colleges coming after him. They will just be shot down and nothing will be heard of it.

Haha...Fred is going nowhere.
Campbell In!
He isn't leaving. But this is awesome pub.

My hunch is that he's ours for a long, long time. He knew when he took the job that this wasn't just a routine hiring of a coach. This is perhaps the singular most beloved player in Cyclone basketball history. To walk away from that so easily could severely damage if not outright shatter his legacy. He knows that I don't think he'd walk away from that.
At least, I hope not.
This is not a surprise. He would be a perfect NBA coach. He'll get approached this year. I am sure he got approached the past 2 years. His few college coaching flaws would be less of an issue in the NBA. They'll want him. He is a star in the making.
If UCLA whiffs on their dream candidates (and you know they will) they would be stupid to not look at hoiberg.
I don't think he is going anywhere unless he decides he can't deal with the crap that the college game brings.
Fred isn't leaving for a college program. He will be an NBA coach but not until his kids are graduated from High School.
"It would need to be a long-term commitment, because he could stay at Iowa State forever," says one assistant GM who stays in contact with Hoiberg.
That says a lot, I think. He's not leaving for awhile.

I don't like all the work in maintaining a perfect lawn—mowing, re-seeding, weeding—and watering the lawn just seems wasteful. Our dog also does not help the cause.
In Gardening from a Hammock, the book I wrote with Dan Cooper, we were advised by several gardeners to "ditch the grass." Teacher, biologist and nursery owner Martin Galloway suggested a sedum lawn instead; using a variety of sedums that would provide colour and texture with little need to water or weed. Although we may not all want to replace our lawns, sedums are most welcome anywhere in the garden. And if we were to choose a favourite, it would be Sedum spurium 'John Creech.'
Like many sedums, 'John Creech' is low growing—only about five to 10 cm—and is a fast-growing groundcover, spreading 25 to 30 cm. It provides a green carpet of tiny, rounded, deep-green leaves with small clusters of pink, star-like flowers in late spring through early summer.
It is a favourite low-maintenance plant because, once established, you can simply forget about it. 'John Creech' is a workhorse in all kinds of soil from zones 2 to 9. Although it is most commonly used as a hardy groundcover, it can be so much more. This modest plant needs a publicist to shout out its attributes. It can be used:
- As a groundcover that works well on both flat and sloped areas
- For edging
- As an accent in a rock garden
- In containers where it will cascade over the sides.
As well, it is non-invasive, keeps its colour in full sun, is deer resistant, drought tolerant and attracts butterflies. If that is not enough, here is the best part: the leaves are so dense that they choke out the weeds.
Sedum spurium 'John Creech' is one of the star plants selected by 17 expert gardeners in Gardening from a Hammock by Ellen Novack and Dan Cooper. Gardening from a Hammock is an easy-to-use book describing how to create a fabulous, four-season garden using low-maintenance plants. It's loaded with tips and has a botanical reference guide.

Cyclones Take Third At Quad-Meet

More from Cyclones.tv
Uneven Parallel Bars
Camille Santerre and Henrietta Green were the two highlights of Iowa State's first rotation. Green tied a season-best effort, posting a 9.825 for the fourth time this year. Coming off a record-setting 9.95 on Feb. 7 against West Virginia, Santerre was spectacular once again, scoring a 9.900 to win the bars competition.
Floor Exercise
Finishing strong was the story in the floor exercise for Iowa State. Caitlin Brown (9.8), Green (9.825) and Milan Ivory (9.85) stepped up with the Cyclones in a tough position and all three hit their routines, going 9.8 or better. Ivory won the event with Green in second and Brown tied for third. Iowa State's team score on floor was 48.775.
Brown had the highlight of the Cyclones' final rotation, tying her season-high with a 9.800 and tying for the event win. Down two gymnasts due to injury, the Cyclones were only able to put up five competitors on vault, thus having to count a fall to the team score.
Balance Beam
Michelle Shealy and Alex Marasco were Iowa State's best performers on balance beam. The duo both scored 9.775's for event wins in what was an otherwise tough rotation for the Cyclones.
Up Next
The Cyclones will be back in action on Friday as they take on Minnesota at 6:30 p.m. in Hilton Coliseum.

WASHINGTON (AP) - DC police are crediting a Muslim neighborhood watch group with cleaning up a formerly drug infested neighborhood.
The group has focused its efforts on Seventh Street Northwest between P and Q streets, site of the long-troubled Kelsey Gardens apartment complex.
The group's founder, Leroy Thorpe, says members practice a more orthodox form of Islam than such groups as the Nation of Islam. The group is a spin-off of the Citizens Organized Patrol Efforts, which operates in the Shaw neighborhood. Both groups are unarmed and dress in red T-shirts and red baseball caps with "COPE Patrol" written on them.
Police say they know of no other religion-based citizens patrol operating in the District. Several patrol members say they hope to duplicate it in other neighborhoods.

Women's Soccer
News: First-Half Scoring Barrage Lifts Women's Soccer, Triumphs In SCC Opener
The Pasadena City College women's soccer team came off an outstanding second place finish last year in the South Coast Conference. First-year head coach Reggie Rivas didn't waste any time directing the Lancers to a positive start to the 2013 SCC schedule as PCC blanked host El Camino College, 3-0, Tuesday afternoon.
The visiting Lancers (now 3-2-2 overall) scored all three of their goals in the first half and in only a 14-minute span.
Sophomore Amanda Papac (pictured) got the Lancers on the board in the 24th minute with a chip-shot over a charging Gudino to put the Lancers up 1-0. Helena Macintosh picked up the assist.
In the 32nd minute, Papac struck again thanks to a Warriors miscue in the box. Gudino charged and leapt in an attempt to flag down a Lancers' throw-in attempt but came down hard and lost her grip on the ball. Papac pounced on the loose ball and tucked it into the back of the net for her second tally of the day.
The Lancers capped off the scoring in the 38th minute when midfielder Isabella Montano headed a crossing pass from Carmen Aguilar high into the net.
PCC goalie Angie Ulmer only had to make two saves as the Lancers outshot El Camino, 17-5.
"The girls played great," Rivas said. "We are connecting on our passes and playing total team defense. We just have to keep this momentum going offensively that we've created over the last few matches."
PCC visits East Los Angeles College Friday, October 4 for a 6 p.m. conference game.

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- The CEO of Apple is taking a stand on a social issue that affects the workplace.
Tim Cook is urging Congress to pass a bill that would bar workplace discrimination based on an employee's sexual orientation or gender identity. He wrote an impassioned defense of the "Employment Nondiscrimination Act" in the Wall Street Journal.
The bill cleared a test vote in the Senate Monday night and appears to be on a path to passage there, but it is expected to die in the House.
The measure would change federal law to protect LGBT workers against discrimination.

So dumb!
I mean I know it's to improve draw odds for Residents, but c'mon.
So dumb!
I mean I know it's to improve draw odds for Residents, but c'mon.
That sucks! I have never put in for those species, but now I really won't. Exactly what they want I guess.
Too easy to stop pmt is my only guess.
I bet you can use a credit card to by marijuana! I have never understood the credit card mess. I think it might be the fees that the credit card companies charge?
For NR I assume it's so that they don't have to pay credit card fees like BKC said. 2-3% fees adds up awfully fast on $2,000 apps. Now if you're talking just for residents, I don't know.
I like the process for NRs and hope they don't change it.
Residents can use a credit card. I'm really surprised they don't extend that to NR's too. Seems to me they would want all the money they can get! If I was a NR I wouldn't want them to change it either... makes it easier for guys to apply when they don't have to front the actual cash.
ya it's nice if you have $7k cash per state to front...
sometimes I wonder when they say hunting is a rich man's sport...
No BKC, MJ is a cash only business.
They only except paper applications for sheep, goat and moose from NR, so no credit cards accepted. It HAS to do with somehow, someway keeping more of your money. The bottom line with them is always about money.
How does not accepting non resi CC's improve resident draw odds? They specify non resi quota's in most areas.
If up fronting the cash is improving my odds by scaring away a few other non resi's, I'm all for it. I'd like to draw another mtn goat tag one of these days...

Morehead, KY (Sports Network) - New Morehead State football coach Rob Tenyer
has tabbed Craig Mullins as his offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
Mullins has served in that capacity the last 16 seasons at Georgetown College
(Ky.), his alma mater.
"Craig has coached at the college level for the past 20 years, and we're
excited about adding someone to our staff with that kind of experience,"
Tenyer said. "He is a high-quality recruiter and has very good ties to the
high school programs in the state of Kentucky."
Georgetown posted a 155-36 record (.812) during Mullins' tenure, going to four
straight NAIA national championship games from 1999 to 2002, including wins in
2000 and '01.
He was named the American Football Coaches Association's NAIA assistant
coach of the year in 2011 and its NAIA coordinator of the year in 1999.
Mullins also served as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at
California University (Pa.) from 1993-96.
Tenyer took over the Morehead State program on Dec. 13. He was an assistant
the past 12 seasons, including the last two as offensive coordinator.
The Eagles were 4-7 overall, including 3-5 in the Pioneer Football League,
this past season.

Well, it begins . . .
This project may never get "done." It has been a frustrating one, trying to carve a large enough hole in the forest adjacent to my home to allow enough sky to make it worthwhile. Contractor and equipment problems made the tree clearing alone take all summer and this far into fall. It's been sadly destructive although my forest is "falling down" overmature. Still, some Methuselah trees likely had more life left than I and I hated to see them felled. But I had no sky. . . and I still have lots of trees.
Of course, now that clearing is completed, I hope progress will accelerate a bit. It's a race with winter and Mother Nature may well win.
The first image shows the raw site, while tree removal was still underway. Hard to believe anything can come of this unholy mess!

When it comes to shampoos, sometimes what a formula lacks is as important as what it includes. Low quality shampoos often contain harsh chemicals and heavy emollients to increase their lather while providing few real benefits to the health of your hair. These ingredients can even leave behind a dulling, heavy residue that robs your hair of body and makes it look dirty and greasy even immediately after washing. That's why to keep your hair looking and feeling its best, not just any old shampoo will do. The Kerstin Florian Shampoos make an excellent choice for your daily hair care needs thanks to their effective formulations.
Free of the ingredients that can decrease your hair's beauty, the products in the Kerstin Florian Shampoos collection fortify each strand of your hair through a combination of natural ingredients. The items in the Kerstin Florian Shampoos are clean rinsing, leaving behind only soft, strengthened hair that smells and looks incredible. The Kerstin Florian Shampoos partner perfectly with Kerstin Florian's conditioners for a full hair care regimen that nourishes your hair for less breakage.
Gently, but effectively remove dirt and excess oil from your hair and scalp with the products in the Kerstin Florian Shampoos collection. The lineup of shampoos washes away all impurities and leaves behind only hair-enhancing nutrients with no greasy residue. The natural ingredients in the shampoos from Kerstin Florian help keep the hair shafts hydrated and strengthen them to minimize the breakage and split ends that commonly plague dry hair.
Kerstin Florian Aromatherapy Reviving Shampoo has a refreshing scent to revive your senses, while its ingredients give new life to your hair. Hyrdolyzed wheat proteins in the shampoo attach to the cuticle of the hair to provide extra strength and body. This makes the formula especially effective for thinning hair in both men and women.
Pro-vitamin B5 provides the hair shaft with a burst of moisture to treat dryness and prevent brittleness. The extract of the calendula flower in the formula brings out vibrant blond highlights for a beautiful shine. For itchy, irritated scalps, the shampoo contains aloe vera gel to soothe and heal the tissue.
The blend of ingredients in Kerstin Florian Aromatherapy Reviving Shampoo is formulated to be safe for chemically-treated hair, keeping your color as gorgeous as when you left the salon for as long as possible. The shampoo is available in 8-ounce and 32-ounce bottles. The money saving larger size comes in an easy-to-dispense pump style for quick use in the bath or shower. The shampoo is balanced to be safe for use every day.

A perfect number is a natural number whose divisors add up to the number itself. The number 6 is a perfect example: the divisors of 6 are 1, 2 and 3 (we exclude 6 itself, that is, we only consider proper divisors) and
1+2+3 = 6.
If a non-perfect number were an animal, it might look something like this.
If you play around with numbers for a while you will see why people have always been so fond of perfect numbers: they are very rare. The next one after 6 is 28, then it's 496, and for the fourth perfect number we have to go all the way up to 8128. Throughout antiquity, and until well into the middle ages, those four were the only perfect numbers that were known. Today we still only know of 48 of them, even though there are fast computers to help us find them. The largest so far, discovered in January 2013, has over 34 million digits.
Will we ever find another one? We can't be sure — mathematicians believe that there are infinitely many perfect numbers, so the supply will never run out, but nobody has been able to prove this. It's one of the great mysteries of mathematics. You can find out more in Number mysteries.

In the process of writing an article on curvature we got entirely distracted by making a geogebra worksheet showing the tangent, normal and osculating circle to any smooth function. The meaning and mathematics of all these terms is revealed in this article, but if you fancy getting your hands dirty yourself, have a play with the worksheet below. Please post your favourite function as a comment – the curvier and wigglier the better!

These lucky people are climbing around a 22 feet (6.7 metres) tall structure composed of 384 softball bats, 130 soft balls and a couple of thousand pounds of steel. The structure represents a Sierpinski tetrahedron: a fractal which has finite volume but infinite area. The image only shows an approximation of the fractal of course, as it would be impossible to make a full-on Sierpinski tetrahedon with its infinite intricacy, but it's beautiful anyway!

This is one of friend of Plus Ahmer Wadee's favourites images from the book 50 visions of mathematics. It is of a demonstration at Imperial College in 1887 of the mathematical principles behind (or should that be underneath?) the Forth Bridge. The bridge was the largest spanning bridge in the world at the time and the technique behind it was an innovation, essentially balancing the forces involved using cantilevers. The men on the chairs (Sir John Fowler and Benjamin Baker) represent the piers of the bridge and the load on the bridge, in this case Kaichi Watanabe, one of the first Japanese engineers to study in the UK, is supported by the tension (in the men's arms and in the ropes to the anchors) and compression in the structure.
So, what holds up the Forth Bridge? Why, maths of course!

Chael Sonnen coach Scott McQuarry today told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) that Anderson Silva's second-round TKO of Sonnen is "an injustice," and he plans to appeal the bout's official result.
"Obviously, there were minor infractions of grabbing shorts and greasing himself up," McQuarry said. "But the knee to the face … I've looked at it from numerous angles. I can see where it hit his face. It did slide down to his chest. But that should be considered a no-contest.
"What I'm looking for is a rematch."
Silva vs. Sonnen II headlined UFC 148, which took place this past Saturday at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and aired live on pay-per-view.
McQuarry said he's contacted Nevada State Athletic Commission Executive Director Keith Kizer to find out the steps for an appeal and has yet to hear back.
"Anybody can file an appeal, but as you know, the referee's decision is final," Kizer told MMAjunkie.com while on his way to the 2012 UFC Fighters Summit to discuss therapeutic-use exemptions. "He's the sole determiner that the knee was a lawful strike, and then he stopped the fight thereafter after the additional strikes. I don't know what the legal basis would be."
Sonnen manager Mike Roberts said he had no knowledge of a pending appeal and said he thought "somebody is making it up."
Silva's camp, meanwhile, believes Sonnen's coaches are focused on the wrong thing.
"I should appeal his coaching staff, and maybe his coaching staff should do a better job of coaching their athlete," Silva's manager, Ed Soares, today said. "Instead of focusing on appealing something so little, maybe he should attend an Anderson Silva seminar or something."
An attempt to reach Sonnen, who is currently at the summit, was unsuccessful. McQuarry said he informed the fighter of his plans on Sunday and sent him a picture of the knee that set the fight's end in motion.
"His response to me specifically was, 'Yeah, I knew that all along. I bit my tongue,'" McQuarry said. "And he had told me after the fight that it was a knee to the face."
McQuarry said two NSAC athletic inspectors also informed him post-fight that the knee was illegal.
"Going into the cage after the fight, I was accompanied by two representatives of the Nevada State Athletic Commission, and they both turned to me and said, 'You realize that was an illegal knee,'" he said. "It's pretty obvious to me."
Kizer, however, said he and NSAC chairman Raymond "Skip" Avansino approached the fighter backstage at his post-fight doctor's examination, and Sonnen did not indicate he wanted to appeal.
Sonnen tumbled to the mat after missing a spinning backfist, and Silva fired off the knee in question before Sonnen returned to his feet and was felled by more punches that prompted referee Yves Lavigne to wave off the bout at the 1:55 mark of the second round. The win was Silva's 10th consecutive title defense and 15th overall victory inside the octagon.
Suspicion over the knee's legality was quelled by replays of the stoppage inside the arena, though it has lingered online as some have questioned whether Silva used the fence for leverage in throwing the strike. (Kizer clarified that a fighter is not allowed to use the cage for leverage in throwing a knee to the body of a downed opponent, but stressed that in the case of this past Saturday, it was at Lavigne's discretion to rule whether Silva's strike was legal.)
Silva grabbed Sonnen's shorts at several points, and at one point, his hand was batted away by Lavigne. However, he was not deducted a point. (McQuarry noted that Sonnen once grabbed Silva's shorts, as well.) Immediately prior to the fight, cameras also spotted the champ wiping his arms and torso after receiving Vaseline from a cageside cutman, though Lavigne wiped the fighter down before the opening bell.
"(UFC executive) Lorenzo (Fertitta) came to me and said, 'Did you see that?' I said, 'Lorenzo, he does that every damn fight,'" Kizer said. "And Yves was ready for that and took care of it."
Regardless, McQuary wants the commission to look into it further.
"It was pretty evident to me that there was intent on Anderson's part to do an illegal knee, and I think he was trying to get disqualified still," McQuary said. "I think Anderson's hope the whole time was that he would do an illegal thing, he would get disqualified, and then I don't know what his plan was after that.
"But to me, it was extremely blatant, and it was ignored by the referee and everybody else and swept under the rug. And to add insult to injury, (UFC president) Dana White gives the 'Knockout of the Night' (bonus) to Anderson.
"I want to expedite this. I'm normally pretty quiet about this type of stuff, but when you see an injustice to this extreme and there's so much on the line, I feel compelled to say something. Where it goes, I don't know. To me, best-case scenario is we would get ruled a no-contest and we could have a rematch."

My money is with the whack from the mail box, possibly loose wire at ammeter?
I'm going to agree with Cafeman on this one. I had something similar recently, it turned out to be a red wire in the nacelle rubbing the insulation off the wire and shorting to the inside of the nacelle. Yours could be that or some other pinched location. I also would inspect the ammeter wires, see if they are securely fitted.
I'm going to guess that "nacelle" means the metal shell that houses the headlight, ammeter, speedo and all the wires below my key? Just havent seen that word used before.
For the hell of it - tried a 20A fuse - it blew too. haha. Thank you Ace... the search continues.

Every morning should start with a thorough cleansing to remove dirt, impurities and excess oils from the skin's surface. Juara Skincare Cleansers are inspired by nature, relying on botanical extracts to gently cleanse the skin without stripping away the natural oils. Juara Skincare Cleansers for the face and body consist of refreshing blends that purify the skin to leave it feeling clean but balanced. Juara Skincare Cleansers prepare the skin for treatment products and moisturizers by ridding the skin's surface of impurities which can prevent the penetration of active ingredients.
Juara Skincare Cleansers smell great and feel fabulous on the skin. They are as delightful to use as they are effective. Juara Skincare Cleansers are formulated with high quality ingredients that combine the tried and true wonders of nature and tradition in modern formulations for convenience and ease of use. Consider Juara Skincare Cleansers as the first step in any skin care routine.
For healthy skin, both the face and the body should be thoroughly cleansed every day. It is particularly important to take this basic step before applying other products. Juara Skincare Cleansers are appropriate for all skin types as they purify the skin without drying or irritating.
Juara Rice Facial Cleanser is a gentle cleanser that can be used by anyone. Based on an ancient Asian tradition of using rice to rinse the skin, Juara Rice Facial Cleanser is loaded with amino acids that soothe and soften the skin during the cleansing process. Many cleansers contain harsh detergents which leave the skin stripped of its natural moisture. This can lead to dryness and irritation. Juara Rice Facial Cleanser contains no sulfates or soap that may contribute to moisture loss. The softening formula helps to lock in moisture, aiding in healthy hydration levels. Juara Rice Facial Cleanser lathers lightly without heavy detergents. After massaging the product onto the skin, rinse thoroughly. The product rinses cleanly to leave the skin feeling comfortable and balanced. For best results, follow with the Tamarind Tea Hydrating Toner and the Sweet Black Tea & Rice Facial Moisturizer.
Shower time is always more rewarding with a delightful cleanser that purifies the skin while also stimulating the senses. Juara Tiare Jasmine Tea Bath and Shower Gel gently cleanses the skin in the shower while moisturizers lock in essential hydration. The formula is loaded with beneficial antioxidants to protect the skin long after the shower is over. Juara Tiare Jasmine Tea Bath and Shower Gel smells fabulous and leaves the skin lightly fragranced.

Your training plan may say it's time for your lunchtime five-miler, but your grumbling stomach begs to differ. So how can you get through your workout without keeling over from hunger? Have a snack, of course.
"The right snack can prevent premature fatigue on a run and keep blood-sugar levels steady, thwarting cranky moods that might cause you to peter out early," says sports dietitian Jan Dowell, M.S., R.D. She recommends eating up to 150 calories if you're running within 15 to 30 minutes and as much as 300 calories if you have an hour or more to digest.

And, yes, it's okay to have a nibble if you're trying to lose weight, just keep it on the lighter side. These options contain carbohydrates for quick energy, a bit of protein to hold off hunger, and some electrolytes to keep your fluid levels balanced (it's best to avoid too much fat and fiber, which take longer to digest and can spell GI trouble).
Best of all, these snacks take little or no prep, so you can grab a bite and go (if you're craving for more than just a snack, try these Portable Meals You Can Take To Go).
Running in 15 to 30 Minutes
Easy to stash, slow to spoil, and hard to bruise, oranges quench your thirst while providing more than 100 percent of your daily need for vitamin C. "This vitamin helps prevent muscle injuries and replaces collagen in muscle fibers that break down during exercise," says sports dietitian Pamela Nisevich Bede, M.S., R.D., of Swim, Bike, Run, Eat! Sports Nutrition. One orange has just 62 calories, enough to quiet a growling stomach before a short run without going overboard.
More: What to Eat Before a Race
Snack Right
Stick with whole fruit. Orange juice is a very concentrated source of sugar, supplying too many carbs at once, and drinking a lot of it may upset your stomach during a run. If eating whole fruit bores you, try spicing it up with these fun and healthy ways to enjoy fruit.

Admission into the minor. Students are expected to formally declare a minor. With the assistance of an advisor in the minor department, students should complete the "Declaration of Minor" form before or during the third year of full-time enrollment.
Grade point average. A 2.0 grade point average in the minor is required for completion of the degree. The minor GPA is calculated based on all courses applicable to the minor that the student has attempted at UA and all work applicable to the minor that the student has attempted throughout the entire higher education career.
Minor courses. The minor in marine science requires the successful completion of the following 22 semester hours:
|BSC 114:115 or BSC 118 and BSC 116:117 or BSC 120 OR
|GEO 101 and GEO 102 (or GEO 105)

Additional minor requirements. Students are not permitted to count the same required minor course toward completion of a major or second minor. Students may count required ancillary courses toward the requirements of another major. Students are responsible for ensuring that they have met all University, college, major, and minor requirements. However, each student must meet with an advisor in the major department for academic planning and to be cleared for registration each semester. If necessary, students may consult with the minor department academic advisor for questions concerning minor requirements.
Special opportunities. During the summer semester, a large suite of marine science courses is offered at the Dauphin Island campus of the Alabama Marine Environmental Sciences Consortium.

BEALLSVILLE - Chase Kinemond passed for three touchdowns and ran for a fourth and a running-back-by-committee also scored three times as Shadyside rolled past homestanding Beallsville, 40-14, on Friday night.
While the state-ranked Tigers (6-0) remained unblemished, coach Mark Holenka wasn't exactly thrilled with his team's performance at times.
''This was like an Oreo cookie game - chocolate on both sides,'' Holenka said. ''We just got done with a tough Linsly team and we know Wheeling Central is ahead. This was a tough game.
''As a coaching staff, we probably let down a little bit, and so did the kids, but we bounced back after stumbling a little at the start.''
Shadyside's Cory Banco fell on a Blue Devils fumble at the Tigers 38, and two plays later Kinemond found Chris Littell in the right flat for a 26-yard gain. However, Littell broke free down the far sidelines and outran everyone to the end zone to make it 7-0.
Ian Baker returned a Beallsville (1-5) punt 31 yards to set the Tigers up with good field position on their next possession. Starting at their own 46, Littell capped a six-play, 54-yard march with a 13-yard scamper off left tackle.
The Blue Devils found some success against the Tigers defense through the airways as senior Teryn Jarrett passed for 190 of his 260 yards in the first half. His 32-yard strike to Mikey Palmer advanced the ball to the Shadyside 24, but his next attempt was picked off by Brooks Ramsey at the 16.
''That was two times we were down there and shot ourselves in the foot,'' Beallsville coach Paul Kanzigg said. ''We were moving the ball on them, but then we made mistakes.
''Defensively, we gave up a couple of big plays and you can't do that against a team like Shadyside.''
After an exchange of punts, Kinemond put the finishing touches on a four-play, 54-yard scoring drive when he scrambled 32 yards to paydirt. He started to his right and cut back to the middle before breaking outside to the near sideline. He stumbled around a pack of players and just got inside the pylon for a 20-0 lead.
Beallsville answered right back as it drove 75 yards on 10 plays.
Jarrett fired a fourth-down bubble screen to Palmer and the swift sophomore turned into a 15-yard touchdown. Mason Campbell's extra point was good as the Blue Devils pulled to within 20-7 with 1:35 left in the half.
A key play on the drive was a 42-yard hookup between Jarrett and Gage Steele.

Ana Ivanovic, who had some see-saw serving during her revenge win against Alisa Kleybanova, cleaned it up big time in Dubai today.
The Roland Garros champ served 7 aces against only 3 doubles and had 63% success on first-serve deliveries during her 6-2, 7-6 (5) defeat of Frenchie Camille Pin. She'll either face top lady baller Serena Williams or Jie Zheng in the quarterfinals.
So, taking a look at some images of the Serb's serving (say that 3 times quickly - phew) in the match it becomes very clear why there's still so much inconsistency in her serve right now: her weight continues to fall to her left, not forward into the court and she seems off-balance during and after the follow-through.
These issues seem to all start with her sketchy ball toss (below). It's a big mess. The ball is running away from her so I guess Ana will have to chase it - not good.
It's definitely not the service motion she utilized brilliantly at Roland Garros last year. But it seems the 21-year old is still moving in the right direction.

MEDIA MASHUP: A closer look at Ana's serve during Dubai defeat of Camille
Labels: Ana Ivanovic, Dubai, technique, tennis

Yes.. Ana's serve still has clear flaws.. and the toss is far from perfect.ReplyDelete
But.. she seems to be improving. The serve was extremely important in both her matches in Dubai.
I guess with Ana now it's all about improvement.. she won't just show up and play great tennis like in RG 08.. she will be making baby steps until she has her full form back.
anon: agreed her serve was very important in the matches and will always be. she's a good, not great, mover and her serve sets up the rest of her game.ReplyDelete
No serve = no game.
- AnonymousFebruary 18, 2009 at 3:17 PM
thanks for the serve analysis, rich. i read an interview of sven's at the aussie open this year and he mentioned that the thumb injury that ana suffered mid-2008 may have done more harm than expected. looking at her serve and even her forehand, it's really different frm her 2007 and early 2008 form. the slump may be attributed to the adjustments that she and her team are making to her game. it seems that they're trying to develop her now as a serve&volley player. let's see how it play out. it's interesting to know how she matches up against serena in their QF encounter. i think ana has the game to beat serena, not too many people give ana credit for the variety that she shows on court. she can slice and has a decent net game. add that to her blow torch fh and serve and if everything works out, she could more slams to her name.ReplyDelete
anon: Yeah I remember reading something about that too. I also recall they mentioned a change in her grip for both strokes as well - always such a touchy thing at this point in a baller's career.ReplyDelete
But I hope they don't try to develop her into a serve & volley baller. Don't get me wrong, she and everyone else could be at net a lot more and ana's actually quite competent up there when in position and when she comes in on her own terms.
However, I don't think she has the quickness or the athleticism, frankly, to become a serve and volleyer. She should def throw it in here and there (40-0, 40-15 points) to add variety and keep her foe off-balance.
With regards to ReRe, Ana will need to have all guns blazing to win and if her confidence is off (and therefore her serve is off) ReRe will smell it and she's toast. But I def give her a shot.

''No serve = no game.''ReplyDelete
It sums it up everything for Ana.
- WesterlyFebruary 18, 2009 at 9:57 PM
Yes, Ana's poor serve toss is really noticeable. Sign me up as another poster who doubts the wisdom of trying to turn Ana into a Serve and Volleyer. She just *doesn't* have the footspeed, necessary reflexes or overall agility for that style of play.ReplyDelete
You have to be more than merely 'competent' at the net.
In fact, I think that her lack of agility is one of her weaknesses, though she has worked on it and would be wise to continue to work on that area.

Located west of Singapore and Batam, the Karimun Islands stand guard south of the busy shipping lane that is the Straits of Malacca. Together with Batam and Bintan, Karimun forms part of the Batam-Bintan-Karimun Free Trade Zone, which is being developed into an industrial and tourism region.
Capital of the Karimun Islands district in the Riau Islands (Kepri), is Tanjung Balai, a busy medium town largely built on stilts, with a significant Chinese Peranakan population. Here are found a number of Chinese temples, oldest of which is the Vihara Cetiya Vidya Sagara at Jalan Jenderal A. Yani at Meral, built in 1926. Others along the same street are the Vihara Bodhi Maitreya.an the Vihara Sasana Diepa. Further away at Jalan Athena is the Klenteng Tua Pek Kong.
Tanjung Balai Karimun should not be confused with its namesake Tanjung Balai in Asahan on the main island of Sumatra. Similarly, Karimun in the Riau Islands province should also not be confused with the Karimunjawa Islands, located north of Semarang, capital of Central Java.
With trade and investments mounting fast in this region, it comes as no surprise, therefore, that this once sleepy town has become a hive of activities, although still retaining its coastal rural character.
But, to enjoy rural life on this tropical Indonesian island, you need to get away from Tanjung Balai and go to some local village or "kampung" at Meral or Pasir Panjang.
For holiday makers, the islands of Karimun offer long stretches of white beaches, snorkeling opportunities, and of course succulent seafood dishes of fish, crabs, prawns and oysters all freshly caught from the sea. The nearby Terkulai and Soreh are popular holiday islands, while Palawan Beach and Pongkar Beach offer white sandy beaches ideal for watersports and relaxation under the palm trees. The island of Telunas in Karimun has also been developed into a holiday resort, a favorite with Singapore expatriates and students. (for details click www.telunasbeach.com)
Frequent ferries connect Singapore, Johor in Malaysia, Batam and Bintan with Tanjung Balai Karimun. And with more people visiting the islands for trade, investment and tourism, Karimun now has also a number of good hotels.

JBA Headers Long Tube Headers
JBA long tube headers are the number one choice for maximum performance gains and high RPM efficiency. These long tube designs are dyno and race proven to deliver the greatest possible increase in hosepower and torque throughout the RPM range. All JBA long tube headers feature large mandrel-bent stainless steel primary tubes, oversized exhaust ports, extra thick 3/8 one piece flanges, and patented JBA Firecone merged collectors for smooth flow. Each system is designed to give the maximum amount of ground clearance possible so lowered cars do not drag the collectors. Each system includes high quality hardward and thorough instructions for a professional no-leak installation.
About JBA Parts & Accessories
JBA is one of the most trusted names in the aftermarket exhaust industry because of its commitment to manufacturing excellence. With product designs that are original and innovative and always deliver. Power, quality, fit, durability and smog legality are what we are known for. In 1987, those qualities were not present in the header or exhaust industry so we set out to build our own products to meet the needs of the growing street performance market.
