(SportsNetwork.com) - The Oklahoma City Thunder will try to snap a two-game
slide when they conclude a road trip Saturday night against the Milwaukee
Bucks at the Bradley Center.
The Thunder dropped the first two games on the trip, both out west, and both
to good teams. OKC fell to the Los Angeles Clippers 111-103 on Wednesday
night, then dropped a heartbreaker to the Golden State Warriors, 116-115 on
Andre Iguodala hit a fade away jumper at the buzzer to give the Warriors
"He made a tough shot over a contested hand," head coach Scott Brooks said of
Iguodala's shot. "Unfortunately, it went in. That's what good teams do."
Russell Westbrook drained a 3-pointer to give the Thunder the lead before
Iguodala stuck a dagger in the Thunder's chest. He finished with a game-high
31 points, followed by 27 points and 13 rebounds from Serge Ibaka, 20 from
Kevin Durant and 12 off the bench from Reggie Jackson.
"It was a great NBA basketball game," said Brooks. "It was playoff intensity
in November. They're a great team. You couldn't ask for a better game.
Unfortunately somebody had to lose."
The Thunder play six straight at home after Saturday's tilt with the Bucks.
The Bucks got creamed by the Indiana Pacers, 104-77 Friday night in
Indianapolis. Milwaukee has dropped four straight and its 77 points against
the Pacers was a season-low.
The Bucks were without Caron Butler, Ersan Ilyasova, Larry Sanders and Brandon
Knight against the Pacers. They've dealt with injuries all season, but the
losses are piling up.
"We have to learn how to deal with it, we have to learn how to handle it and
we have to move on from it," Bucks head coach Larry Drew said of the injuries.
"At some point, we'll get our guys back and we'll really get a chance to see
what we have."
O.J. Mayo paced the Bucks with 20 points, followed by 11 apiece from Gary Neal
and Khris Middleton. Luke Ridnour made his season debut Friday night and
scored four points in 21 minutes of action.
The Bucks are 1-2 at home this season.
The two teams split last season's two matchups with the visitor prevailing.
The Thunder have taken three straight in Brew City.

'Double Track' to ease pressure on lines
(Page 2 of 3)
The second track will be added in two phases, and will not expand beyond land already owned by the LIRR, so there will be no need to acquire private property. Phase 1, the segment between Ronkonkoma and Central Islip, is projected to be completed in 2016, and is fully funded. Phase 2, the segment between Central Islip and Farmingdale, is projected to be finished in 2018. An estimated 300 construction jobs will be created by this project. Phase 2, which is unfunded at this point, will cost about $300 million.
Another expected benefit will be an improvement in the reverse commute, west to east, and intra-Island transportation, easing access to MacArthur airport. And a reopening of the station at Republic Airport is also in the works. Reopening the Republic station would cost an additional $50 million.
Other enhancements on track
Several other topics were raised in discussions the Herald had with Williams last week.
As part of the East Side Access Plan, service between Queens and Brooklyn will improve — the trip from the Jamaica station to the Atlantic Terminal will take 7½ minutes on a new direct shuttle.

Most people recognize the value of sunscreen as protection against harmful UV rays, which can cause skin cancer and promote wrinkles, creases, and other undesirable cosmetic conditions. Many, however, don't like the way sunscreen looks or feels on their skin—especially heavy, greasy, residue-leaving sunscreen, which defines many second-rate versions. Such experiences can turn people off of sunscreen entirely, leaving them vulnerable to sun damage. The Coola line of sun-protection products aims to transform your notion of what a sunscreen can be by using high-quality formulations that nourish and protect your skin without a disagreeable feel or aroma. The Coola Reviews are an excellent way to learn more about the collection.
With the Coola Reviews, we here at SkinStore.com have assembled feedback from your fellow customers who've used these products. They offer a resource for you as you research options for good sun-care treatments: the chance to reap the fruit of a little empirical knowledge from your peers.
So check the Coola Reviews out today—you'll find links from the brand's main page and the individual product profiles—and take another step closer to premium sun protection!
Direct and long-term exposure to sunlight can create plenty of havoc for your complexion, beyond the obvious risks of skin cancer. It can cause deep-set wrinkles and creases, for example—enhancing or hastening the symptoms of aging. A sunscreen that leaves a greasy film and smells distasteful, however, isn't a very appealing treatment. Investigate the possibilities of the Coola collection, which emphasizes natural ingredients and light, non-greasy formulas, through the Coola Reviews.
Reading the accounts of fellow SkinStore.com users who have actually tried out these products, you come away with rich, varied details you can't find elsewhere. The Coola Reviews shed light on the variety of treatments available in the collection. They include the Coola Mineral Face SPF 30 Matte Cucumber, which evens your skin tone even as it protects you from UV rays with a titanium dioxide and zinc oxide formulation. For those who spend a lot of time outside, the Coola Sport SPF 45 Unscented sunscreen confers powerful, long-lasting, and sweat-resistant protection. In addition, the Coola Sport SPF 45 Unscented helps ward off cosmetic symptoms of aging with antioxidant-rich ingredients. The Coola collection has options for all ages: The Coola Baby SPF 50 Unscented Moisturizer is specially designed for the unique skin condition of infants, richly stocked with organic beeswax, plankton, and other gentle ingredients.
Perhaps the Coola Reviews will lead you to try out one of these sun-care products. In that case, we invite you to write up your own evaluation and submit it to SkinStore.com—help this resource grow and expand!

AAR reports railroad traffic is up for week ending January 29
February 04, 2011
Railroad traffic for the week ending January 29 was up again on an annual basis, according to data released by the Association of American Railroads (AAR).
Carload volume at 291,147 was up 4.7 percent year-over-year, which is ahead of the week ending January 22 at 282,837. The AAR said that carload volume was up 2.4 percent in the East and up 6.2 percent out West.
Intermodal volumes for the week ending January 29 totaled 222,742 total trailers and containers, which was up 9.2 percent annually. Containers—at 190,140—were up 10.1 percent, and trailers—at 32,602—were up 4.4 percent. This output was far ahead of the week ending January 22, which saw 180,888.
As LM has reported, while volumes are up annually and at recent levels on a sequential basis, it appears the annual comparisons for railroad data will be less impressive than they were in 2010, considering 2010 comparisons were up against a difficult 2009.
But railroad volume appear to be picking up where 2010 left off, and prospects for 2011 look very encouraging, especially in light of recent fourth-quarter and full-year earnings results from multiple Class I carriers, which pointed to continued pricing and volume increases.
Of the 20 commodity groups the AAR tracks, 14 saw annual growth for the week ending January 29, with metallic ores up 17.7 percent and farm products excluding grain up 37.2 percent. Coal was up 4.7 percent.
Estimated ton-miles for the week ending January 29 were 32.8 billion for a 5.8 percent annual increase, and for the first four weeks of 2011 the 128.2 billion ton-miles recorded are up 9.0 percent.
"On a year-to-date basis, carloads are 8.0% higher vs. last year and intermodal units are 7.4% higher," wrote Avondale Partners analyst Donald Broughton in a research note. "Coal continues to progress, as normalized utility coal stockpiles, along with improving trends for domestic met coal and export coal should yield weekly coal volumes in the 150-160k range. When combined with the steady rise in intermodal units and the strong volumes seen in chemical and metals, as well as the growing boost from agricultural volumes, we anticipate strong overall volumes moving forward."

Purchase of New Speed Cameras Approved For Baltimore Streets
(Updated 4/17/1013) The Baltimore City Board of Estimates approved the purchase of 72 new speed cameras for $2.2 million April 10 by a four to one vote.
The purchase is to replace equipment that was the subject of a massive malfunction in January. The cameras are used to snare motorists who violate speed laws. The correction of the malfunction was accomplished by switching the camera equipment provider from Xerox State & Local Solutions to the Brekford Corp.
The opposing vote came from City Comptroller Joan M. Pratt, who wanted to know why the city had not taken action against Xerox State & Local Solutions, since city officials are blaming the January shutdown on "deficiencies in the performance of the prior vendor," according to board documents.
City officials are still exploring legal options, said Timothy Krus, the city's purchasing agent.
Still, local residents are reticent about a fresh round of spending to generate fines from motorists. Okima Harris CQ has lived in Baltimore all her life, the amount of money that is expected to come from taxpayers makes her uneasy.
"They are just trying to find new ways to get money from taxpayers," said Harris. "Can they find a different source that is not so costly," she continued.
Local hotfeet and speed demons got a reprieve April 16 from the eye-in-the-sky as Baltimore's acting Department of Transportation director shut down what are commonly known as speed cameras because of "mistakes" engulfing the Automatic Traffic Violation Enforcement System (ATVES).
Frank Murphy called a halt to the system that automatically spits out a ticket, along with a picture of your vehicle in the act of violating a speed law or traffic signal–indefinitely.
"We do not have a date for resumption – we want time to check the entire program," Muphy said after shutting down the system and its new vendor, Hanover, Md.-based Brekford Corp.

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) -- Jimmie Johnson regained the lead on the final restart, beating Brad Keselowski in an ending two-lap shootout to win Sunday at Texas and add to his NASCAR Sprint Cup points lead with two races left.
Johnson led 168 laps, but found himself chasing toward the end. The third restart in the late laps proved to be the charm for No. 48 Chevrolet.
During that restart on the 333rd of 334 laps, Johnson and Keselowski were side-by-side. Johnson charged hard on the outside, and cleared him on the backstretch. He held on the final 1 1/2 laps and won from the pole for the second week in a row.
Johnson increased his lead by five points to seven over Keselowski, who had never finished better than 14th at Texas.

Two Cape Fear region men were sentenced to prison Tuesday in federal court after pleading guilty to receipt of child pornography, according to a news release from U.S. Attorney Thomas G. Walker.
Lonne Balog, 43, of Wilmington was sentenced to 12 and a half years in prison and 20 years of supervised release after pleading guilty Feb. 19 to receipt of child pornography, the news release said.
After a search warrant was executed at Balog's home in June 2012, he admitted to frequent downloading of child pornography, and forensic examiners determined that Balog had accumulated more than 4,000 still images and more than 600 videos depicting the sexual abuse of children, according to the release.
Paul Joseph Schmura, 49, of Burgaw was sentenced to 10 years and one month in prison after pleading guilty Feb. 19 to one count of receipt of child pornography, according to the news release.
A February 2012 search of Schmura's residence found computers, hard drives and media storage devices holding more than 14,678 images of child pornography, according to the news release.
The cases were investigated by the FBI, the N.C. State Bureau of Investigation and, in Balog's case, the New Hanover County Sheriff's Office as part of the Project Safe Childhood initiative, a program implemented nationally to ensure criminals exploiting children are prosecuted.

|Mike Frazier ventures to Haiti for mission trip
|Written by Molly Brandt
|Wednesday, 13 February 2013 08:39
Mike Frazier has been doing physical labor his whole life, but this time the scene was quite different. From Jan. 12-19, Frazier served a mission trip in Leogane, Haiti.
With 24 people of all ages and from all different backgrounds, the mission group Mission E4, based in Hubbardston, Mass., traveled to the Third World country of Haiti where the organization has a staff member and program in-country.
Mission E4 in Haiti focuses on bettering the country as well as helping to boost the local economy. To help with this effort, they employ local Haitians and buy all material locally. In Leogane, the organization runs a school, church, boys' and girls' orphanages, clinic and gift shop.
Children in the schools are all sponsored, which includes Christian schooling, hot meals and materials for uniforms.
Mike Frazier, pictured at top right, interacts with some Haitian kids during a game of duck, duck goose. Games, skits, worship, baptisms and construction all make up Frazier's mission trip to Haiti last month.
Frazier, who is a 25-year-old Amherst resident employed by Camp Machasay, felt God laid the opportunity to serve the people of Haiti on his heart about a year and half ago when his friend Joe, who is actually the site manager in the country, suggested the idea of going overseas to serve. Months later, Frazier put the call into action and feels extremely blessed to have had that opportunity.
Frazier's group primarily worked at the school to help furnish the classrooms with benches, painting, sheeting and chalkboards. The upper level of the school holds an assembly area where Frazier's team did skits, songs and games with the kids. The primary focus of their skits were on the life of Joseph, Frazier explained, as other mission teams serving there would focus on different biblical characters and stories.
Aside from working at the school, the team helped move rock to build new walls around compounds in different locations. Basically, each of the days he was there, they would help at a different location. Meetings, worship sessions, meals, baptisms and swimming were in the schedule as well.
Having been on a mission trip to Juarez, Mexico before, Frazier has experienced poverty, but the extent he witnessed in Haiti was so much worse than he expected or imagined. In the area Frazier served, there seemed to be no jobs and no money while the "homes" were scraps of tin with dirt floors and scattered banana and palm tree branches.
The mindset of the people, Frazier explained, is so different from America's, in that day by day they have to question things as seemingly simple as, "What's for lunch today? Will we have lunch tomorrow?" Frazier pointed out that instead of trying to heal sick children, Haitians have to simply focus on the healthy ones because they oftentimes have virtually no hope for ill children.
Mission E4's church on base was planted four years ago, and according to Frazier, witch doctors in the area threatened to kill any pastor at that time. Frazier said, "I honestly believe the Lord's protection kept the pastor and church starters safe."
Now seven years later, the presence of voodoo has decreased, although it is still existent, as it is in most areas of Haiti. Frazier's first voodoo experience in country was on their very first bus trip when he saw a big loud brass band and drinking, questioned it, and discovered it was a sort of "rara," or basically voodoo-inspired demonic activity.
Enjoying the sunrise and watching the fishermen come in from a night of of fishing, Mike Frazier, at left, enjoys some early-morning fellowship with a small group of team members he got to know in Haiti during his January mission trip.
Frazier contrasted the American society where it is very popular to marry to the Haitian society where only about 10 percent of the population is married. He noticed a completely different family structure, where men would have multiple children out of wedlock, then abandon them due to lack of resources.
Mission E4's church has helped bring marriage to Haiti, marrying about 35 couples since its start, which is impressive for the 80-100 people that regularly attend church.
While he didn't feel he necessarily stayed long enough to experience culture shock, conditions were certainly different in Haiti. The place his team stayed ran on a diesel generator, which was on and off various times throughout the day. In addition, driving conditions in Haiti are drastically different from what Frazier is used to, with a lot of honking and overall carelessness.
In working with the Haitians, Frazier found that communication was easiest by way of hand signals and basic gestures, although he hopes to learn some foreign language they speak. French and Spanish would both leave him capable of some communication with the locals, whereas their Haitian-Creole language is quite complicated.
"Looking back on the experience, I'm definitely grateful for where I live and the mindset that the Lord has blessed me with," Frazier said. A passion within him developed to have more intensity in his walk with the Lord, be more vocal about what he believes and not be afraid of rejection. Regarding ministering to others, Frazier said with a smile, "We should be more like the lion, less like the lamb."
Frazier wishes to thank the many people in the area for their support, whose funding made this trip possible. He feels that God honestly put this trip on his heart and made sure money wasn't an issue.

it looks like zimbra is becoming a real exchange replacement. Email messages in the Sent Items folder have the same PR_INTERNET_MESSAGE_ID property in an Exchange Server 2010 environment describes a situation where an email in the sent folder is send again with outlook and not delivered. Using Outlook 2010 with ZCO the 'cloned' messages get the same Message-Id, so zimbra (and e.g. cyrus imapd) will silentliy discard the message (zimbra's log line is "lmtp - Not delivering message with duplicate Message-ID").
As Outlook 2010 does not use the same Message-Id in the same situation with an IMAP Account I think this must be a ZCO bug. Can anybody confirm this? Does it work with later zimbra versions?

Big Brother will watch out for students
... using digital tracking technology in their ID cards, as a Texas court upheld and the Washington Times approves of.
The Times writes:
The concern for privacy, the possibility of nefarious uses if the badge stolen, and impinging on civil liberties is valid.
However, those concerns are countered by the nation's recent violent history of school shootings, numerous examples of illicit activities, including sexual activity and drug use on school campuses, which give administrators the right to to track students whereabouts during school hours.
Yep, gotta track those kids 24/7 because of sex and drugs, not to mention rock and roll.

I recently was mapping a cave and went out looking for crystal textures to create a "hazard". I went to a few of the royalty free sites but could not find a decent crystal texture. Then it occurred to me that I had a box full of crystals that I had picked up at some gem/rock shows, and so I grabbed my digital camera and took some pics. I used them in my encounter map which you can see over in the finished map section.
Here are a few of the better shots. I hope some my fellow cartographers can find some use for them:

Boston's Back Bay is headlined by two malls in the heart of the city: the upscale Copley Place and the always-bustling Prudential Center. Just across the Charles River is the CambridgeSide Galleria, with three floors, over 100 stores, and moorings for those that like to travel to the mall by boat. The Square One Mall in Saugus has almost a million square feet of retail space, Legacy Place in Dedham has an exceptional line up of restaurants plus the Showcase Cinema de Lux that lives up to its name, and the Natick Mall has more stores than any other mall in New England. Yup, that's definitely at least a billion stores.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- She became a star playing Thelma on the television sitcom "Good Times." But Bern Nadette Stanis is still having good times in front of audiences around the country.
The actress stopped by the WUSA9 studio to talk to Andrea Roane about the role that made her famous, and the role she's taking on now. Stanis stars in a play called "Behind The Pulpit," and it's playing at the Reid Temple in Glenn Dale, Md. on February 15 and 16.

In Allure's November 2010 issue, Julianne Moore is featured on the cover as the "poster child for sunscreen." And indeed she is; Allure says the 49-year-old actress's skin is "unlined" and that she makes sure to cover up when she goes outside. In a time when pale is, unfortunately, too often synonymous with "unattractive," Julianne proves that a woman can be both pale and hot - and look way younger than her sun-worshiping peers later on. Sunscreen is important beyond a superficial standpoint, as well: one in five Americans will develop skin cancer over the course of a lifetime. We thought it would be fun to try to think of other "poster children" for sunscreen. Check out our picks:

At last! A web community dedicated to
urinary stress incontinence
Oops! Laughing, coughing, sneezing, or doing something that puts pressure on the abdomen causes you to leak urine?
It happens to you too? You are not alone. Don't feel shy to talk about it and see what other women say about it!
Did you know that urinary stress incontinence affects 1 in 3 women at some point in their lives, and it is nevertheless still a taboo subject? Too many women think that it is part of ageing and there is nothing they can do about it. They don't even know what causes stress incontinence. Most of them resign themselves to wear "pads" all the time and avoid activities where they would be too incommodated by their problem. Make it happen! Regain control of your bladder and start laughing without leaking again. You will feel much better in your daily life!

Small-Block Chevy Build - Cheap 350Written by Marlan Davis on April 16, 2009 Contributors: Ed Taylor Yes We Can! 390 HP For Just Over $2,600: Practical Power For Today's Hard Times
Your tired Chevy small-block's in dire need of a refresh or replacement--but in today's economy, coming up with the dough to remain in the hot rod game can be tough. Recognizing the economic squeeze and belt-tightening that make up today's reality, we at HOT ROD rolled up our collective sleeves to deliver an affordable Chevy 350 that makes nearly 400 hp for about $2,600. We shelled out the cash only in areas important for making power--cylinder heads, intake, exhaust, carburetor, camshaft, and valvetrain--holding back everywhere else with econo, stock replacement-style parts while trusting the small Chevy's legendary foolproof rotating assembly and oil system would pull through and carry the day.
As assembled by HOT ROD associate Ed Taylor at McMillan's Speed and Fabrication, our Cheap 350 won't win any beauty contests, but it should tide you over until good times are here again. We assume you have a worn-out engine to trade in for a remanufactured assembly after removing reusable parts like the oil pan, front cover, water pump, distributor, oil pump driveshaft, and common fasteners. If starting from scratch with no prior engine, a stock-replacement Mr. Goodwrench engine could be a better alternative (see sidebar on page 95).
The foundation of Cheap 350 is an econo, stock-replacement short-block. For $520, Southern California rebuilder Coast Engine Supply sold us a '71 to '85 two-piece rear main seal 350 with a cast crank, stock rods, and dished four-eyebrow cast pistons. Cores for this vintage small-block are starting to get a little scarce but at least in California are still less expensive than the later one-piece seal motors.
We didn't buy a complete long-block because old-school factory heads suck--and the cylinder heads are one of the primary determinants of an engine's power potential. Instead, we sprung for a set of a mid-'90s GM Vortec heads, the best-flowing small-block castings ever installed by GM on the assembly line. The General grinds a very sophisticated multiangle valve job on these production heads' seats. I'll go out on a limb here and say it's important to buy these heads new; most rebuilders can't replicate the General's trick valve job.
You can now buy GM components directly through its very user-friendly Web portal, which defaults to the closest dealer based on the Zip code you input. However, the best price may not be from your neighborhood dealer: One outfit, GM Parts Direct, sells a pair of fully assembled Vortec heads for just over $600. Note that these heads require late-style center-bolt valve covers; used sets go for about $50/pair in Southern California, including the filler cap and retention bolts.
Cam And Valvetrain
As good as the Vortec heads are for a production-based head, they still poop out at around 350 hp. Anything more requires crutching the heads with a custom cam. Limited oval-track stock car guys usually are restricted to production heads, so we took a leaf from their playbook, selecting an economical yet effective Comp Cams limited oval-track, hydraulic flat-tappet, dual-profile bumpstick. Grind 286AH-8 is designed to develop a broad torque curve on quarter- to three-eighths-mile tracks. It has lots of lift for the duration and, as a full-competition cam, was ground straight up with a 108-degree lobe-separation angle. We installed it 4 degrees advanced (see spec chart on page 91).
In recent years, there have been a rash of flat-tappet hydraulic cam failures that can be primarily traced to an influx of cheap foreign lifters combined with the removal of ZDP protective additives from most street motor oils. Be sure to use only quality lifters and proper break-in lubricant.
A special Comp beehive spring and retainer were used to support the high-lift cam without any need for head machining. However, with the reduced-base-circle oval-track cam plus an undecked block, economical stock-length pushrods end up too short to maintain proper valvetrain geometry. A $69.95, 0.200-inch-long, Summit Racing pushrod set cured the problem.
Bolts And Gaskets
To save bucks, we used stand-ard replacement (not high-performance-series) Fel-Pro gaskets. Everything from the thin steel-shim head gaskets on down was for a traditional two-piece rear main seal block. The intake manifold and valve cover gaskets were stock Fel-Pro replacement '96 to '02 Vortec parts.
Other than Vortec-style intake bolts, new GM head bolts, and center-bolt valve cover screws (which came with the used covers), all fasteners from the core engine can be reused for the rebuild. Inexpensive oil pan and timing cover bolts are available through Pioneer if you need them.
The stock GM HEI distributor from the old engine was used to fire AC spark plugs through a $27 Belden spark plug wire set procured from the local Napa store. A Holley 0-3310 750-cfm vacuum-secondary carb was chosen to supply fuel to two different Edelbrock intakes we intended to evaluate: a high-rise, dual-plane Performer RPM Vortec and a single-plane Super Victor Vortec. Exhaust was handled by a set of $90 Summit Racing early-Camaro headers with 1 5/8-inch primaries and 3-inch collectors.
Test And Tune
With assembly complete, the engine was trucked to Westech's dyno facility. Running Rockett Brand Racing Fuel-supplied 91-octane unleaded gas with cold coolant circulating through an electric water pump, the engine wanted a lot more timing than is usually required with quick-burning Vortec heads, running best with 38 degrees of total ignition lead. We attribute that to the low 9.15:1 compression ratio. After dialing in the carb, the engine made its best power using the Super Victor and a 1-inch open spacer: 395 hp at 5,500 rpm and 419.2 lb-ft at 4,300 rpm. With the same open spacer, the Performer RPM dual-plane made slightly more torque (423 lb-ft, about a 4-lb-ft pickup) but traded off about 3 1/2 hp on top. Overall average torque and power output for the two different intakes varied less than two numbers. We'd have to give the nod to the Performer RPM because it is considerably less expensive than the Super Victor.
Trying to get power to the magic 400hp mark, we used 1.6:1 rockers on intake and exhaust, as well as just on one side or the other. No joy: The engine lost power. A set of trick (and expensive) 1 3/4 headers gained nothing. We should also note that an electric water pump on the dyno is worth about 8 to 10 hp over a beltdriven pump in a real car. Legitimately, this engine is about a 385 to 390hp mill in its present form. Nevertheless, you couldn't have done that for so little cash 10 years ago. And this motor's relative insensitivity to fine-tuning means the engine in its present configuration ought to perform about the same no matter where it's installed or who's turning the wrenches. On a daily street driver with power accessories, you will need an auxiliary vacuum canister or pump, as idle vacuum with the rather large cam is only 9.5 to 10 in-hg at 1,000 rpm.
As to why this engine seems to be relatively insensitive to the usual fine-tuning tricks, we have two theories: compression too low and/or not enough cylinder head. Coast Auto Salvage says it's willing to install flat-top pistons in place of the dished pistons for the same $520 short-block price. It'll also mill the block for an additional $175 outlay. Raising compression to around 9.8 to 10:1 should find the missing 10 to 15 hp. And there are some econo aftermarket Vortec-like head castings out there we'd like to try. Maybe a different cam...anyone up for Phase 2?
The Mr. Goodwrench Option
If you have no core engine or extra, transferable parts, a service replacement GM Mr. Goodwrench long-block crate motor may be a more viable solution than a rebuilder short-block. Each GM dealer ultimately sets its own price for these assemblies, so if you shop around there are some really great deals out there. Remember, too, that shipping charges from a remote dealer may actually be less than paying your local sales tax.
The least expensive Mr. Goodwrench 350 engine we could find was a two-piece rear main seal, four-bolt main, 8.5:1 LM1 replacement for many standard '69 to '85 passenger-car and light-duty truck applications. One GM online seller, GM Parts Direct, lists this assembly (PN 10067353) for just $1,341.60 as of late January 2009. You'd still have to swap the heads, cam, and valvesprings and then add an intake, exhaust, distributor, and carburetor to replicate this article's build.
Also intriguing is a complete '96 to '02 L31 truck and van 350 Vortec engine (PN 12530282). This engine already has the right heads, plus it uses a hydraulic roller cam. Replace the mild cam with an aftermarket hydraulic roller and some stiffer springs (the roller lifters are reusable), along with the usual external performance pieces and you should make more power than the buildup covered here. Scoggin-Dickey lists this assembly for just $2,185.60.

Summit sells this replacement nodular-iron Dorman harmonic damper for just under $50. Do not pound the damper on; it can damage its rubber lamination as well as the crankshaft's thrust bearing. Instead, use a proper installation tool.Lucking out, the dual-dipstick-pocket block was a desirable 0.030 over with a 0.010/0.010-under crank riding in four-bolt mains. Most cores will have only two-bolt mains (OK at this level). Surfaced decks aren't standard at this price; the pistons are way down at TDC, significantly lowering compression while degrading quench characteristics.An inexpensive yet reliable Melling M-55 standard pressure and volume oil pump sucks 5 quarts of conventional Valvoline 10W-40 oil from the engine's reused stock GM oil pan. As a purely optional fail-safe precaution, Ed Taylor tack-welded the Melling 55-S pickup screen to the pump body (arrow).To prevent flat-tappet cam failure, we used premium Comp Pro Magnum lifters (PN 858-16). The anti-pump-up design also performs better at high rpm than standard replacement lifters. The cam and lifters were liberally slathered with break-in lube, and we also dumped in a bottle of Comp's special break-in lubricant to replace the oil's missing ZDP lubricant.GM Vortec heads come with a weak 80-pound single spring (left) that can't do the job with a serious performance cam. Comp Cams' beehive spring (PN 26915, right) develops 136 pounds at 1.700 inches and about 290 pounds at 0.490 lift, easily supporting our oval-track grind.With old-school springs, Vortec heads can't run cams more than 0.475-inch lift (left)--the retainer hits the seal and valveguide. Springs for higher lifts used to require machining the guide bosses plus different seals. Although pricey, Comp Cams' beehive spring (PN 26915) and retainer (PN 787) support more than 0.560-inch lift (right) without machining.The replacement short-block's dished, four-eyebrow pistons were 0.040 inch below the deck at TDC. Maintaining any sort of compression at all required a set of old-school, thin (0.015-inch compressed thickness), Fel-Pro, steel-shim head gaskets. Even so, the compression ratio is only 9.15:1.New stock-replacement GM head bolts come with preapplied sealant paste. Despite the block's not being decked, we had no sealing issues.Plastic Vortec intake side gaskets require no sealant. Use RTV silicone for the end seals. Vortec intakes are retained by eight 5/16-inch hold-down bolts instead of the 3/8 bolts used on classic small-block intakes. Although GM makes a special intake bolt, our chosen Edelbrock intakes bolted down fine using commercial 5/16-18x1 1/2 fasteners and flat washers.
Install steel-shim head gaskets with a liberal coat of silver paint applied to both sides of the gaskets and a new set of head bolts, retorquing after initial engine break-in.Remanufactured Holley 0-3310 750-cfm vacuum-secondary carbs are $240 at Summit. You'll need to richen the carb at least two jet sizes. This requires installing a secondary metering block conversion kit (PN 20-13) on the Model 4160 carb. A soft secondary spring was required to fully open the secondaries (spring assortment kit PN 20-13).From a performance and price standpoint, our intake of choice is the Edelbrock Performer RPM Vortec (PN 7116). On this engine, it was worth 391 hp and 424 lb-ft--a tad more torque and a little less power than a single-plane Super Victor. This manifold costs about $188 at Summit.Edelbrock doesn't offer a Victor Jr. intake that fits Vortec heads--for a single-plane you'll have to move all the way up to the Super Victor Vortec (PN 2913]. The engine made 395 hp and 419 lb-ft with this intake. However, it is $68 more expensive than the dual-plane Performer RPM Vortec at Summit.

Salsa Stainless Flip-Offs Skewer - Pair $0.00
It's hard not to smile when you see Salsa skewers. With their bright bursts of color, they're simply a pleasant sight on any bike. After all, the original incarnation of Salsa was run by a guy who always found a way to make bike parts fun. The Salsa Stainless Flip-Offs Skewers first came about when everyone else was 'super serious' about shaving grams. So, keeping with the tongue-and-cheek title, the original Flip-offs were advertised as 'Light. Functional. Expensive.' It was a jab at the 'slow' releases that some of the ultralight skewer sets really were. The levers came in a variety of anodized colors, including the mixed-color 'Rasta' set.
Designed for your front or full-suspension bike, the Flip-Off Skewers haven't lost their purpose throughout the years. Nowadays, Salsa has taken on a more progressive edge, but the vibe of fun is still there, and the skewers are still great. The lever has a sculpted look that is both elegant and makes opening and closing the lever easy. The rods on this set are stainless steel, and while not as light as titanium, Salsa doesn't recommend titanium rods on suspension bikes.
The Salsa Stainless Flip-Offs Skewers are available as a pair in one size and in the colors Pewter, Purple, Orange, Silver, Red, Green, Blue, and Black.
- Stainless steel rods
- Sculpted lever for easy use

will these work on a 26" lefty?
Does the job and looks good
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Bought these to replace Sun Ringle skewers (which were terrible - in order to get my wheel on I would have to lay the bike down and put all my weight on the cam of the skewer). With these Salsa skewers, securing my wheels is a piece of cake. It was between these and Shimano, but I prefer the look of the Salsa skewers.
Will these work on the fox 36 float?
Are you skewers long enough for a Fat Bike front and rear?
They are NOT long enough. You need the Salsa Fatbike specific ones.
Info here: http://salsacycles.com/components/category/skewers/flip-offs_fatbike
I've seen them on Backcountry before, but I don't see them now. Maybe they are restocking them?!
Great Solid Skewers
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have tried the super lightweight skewers and they don't have enough clamping power for me on the rear wheel, causing it to slip. I decided I would rather have a really strong skewer at the penalty of a few non-rotational grams. The Salsa skewers are beautiful, but I have to say I liked the look of the older finish better. It was a bit more raw and you could see the machining. The new finish has a softer look to it with rounded edges and a different texture. That is the only complaint I have about the skewers, and it is completely up to personal taste. I'm currently using Salsa skewers on mountain, road, and cross bikes. Love 'em.

The colors are abundant and they last. Been using multiple pairs on multiple bikes over the years with no probs whatsoever. Get a pair. Be happy. Your bike sure will be.
The Skewers in Green
Colors without flash in Blue
Flashes and the shiny nature of these guys make taking a photo difficult. I wanted to provide a photo different from Salsa site to show. These are the skewers without flash. Depending on the light these are in, they can range from more dull to bright.
Solved My Problem
These skewers are a huge improvement over my stock skewers. These made the upgrade to hydraulic discs totally worth it. No more wheel slippage. Also the vibrant colors add some nice accents to the bike.
I'm not sure what "one size" means on the...
I'm not sure what "one size" means on the salsa skewers. Will these fit 135 mtn bike size rear? Thanks
Hi Aglade,
These will fit 135mm axle. The skewers are threaded for a long enough section that you can really tighten them down. You can even saw of any excess for a more narrow axle.

I'm playing arround with making PKG´s since a few days and have found out some things by my owen.Like you will need a package.conf containing some infos to be able to use make_package_npdrm (like: Content_ID,K_Licensee,ect.,) but im stuck with getting the EBOOT.BIN into the pkg.
If made the EBOOT.BIN with make_fself_npdrm but when i pack the whole thing the app wont include the EBOOT.BIN too.Everything else is in there,Pic,SFO,ect., but not the EBOOT.BIN.And the tool says something about that a least 1 NPDRM file is needed to include the EBOOT.BIN.
Today ive installed SUSE on VM and will set up the SDK on the Linux sys tomorrow.By the way i dono know if Hellcats SFO Editor is so good as it seems.I made some comparison between Hellcats and Sonys official SFO Editor and im pretty sure that the Tool from Sony would be better to use for this project.You can also set the SFO for a HDD Bootgame if you use the Sonys SFO Editor.
Have to turn off the comp because the womans sleep in the same room.But i will take the pc and bring it into the kitchen and will work the whole night.Mayby i can provide something good tommorrow

Are Sylvester Stallone And Arnold Schwarzenegger's Careers Over?
By Sean O'Connell 2013-02-04 10:49:45 comments
It was a knockout punch Sylvester Stallone couldnt have seen coming. The Italian Stallions latest film, Bullet to the Head opened to an estimated $4.5 million dollars over the weekend. It ranks as the lowest opening for a wide release in Stallones career. To emphasize that point, here are three spectacular bombs on Stallones resume that still opened to bigger numbers than Bullet: 1984s Rhinestone ($5.4M); 2001s Driven ($12.1M); and 1992s Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot! ($7M).
The disappointing number for Stallones latest caught my eye for a different reason, though. Two weeks prior, box office analysts were blasting holes through Arnold Schwarzeneggers failed bid for box-office glory, The Last Stand, when it opened to a meager $6.2M. At the time, pundits said audiences were telling Schwarzenegger through their financial indifference that they didnt believe him in the action-hero role anymore, and they werent interested in these standalone law-enforcement endeavors that poke fun of his age.
What, then, do you think they are trying to tell Sly?
Are the days of box-office wine and roses over for the Planet Hollywood crew? Have audiences grown tired of these older men in action-heavy roles?
A few weeks ago, my answer would have been an emphatic, No, for several reasons. Stallones Expendables franchise, for starters, proves that ticket buyers will show up to see these action icons kicking ass on screen. And while the second Expendables earned less than its predecessor ($85M domestically versus $103M), both films made more than enough on the global market to get the wheels turning on a third installment -- perhaps with Wesley Snipes and Jackie Chan.
Elsewhere, you can also point to Liam Neesons Taken franchise as a lucrative property built on the shoulders of an older action hero. The 60-year-old Irishmans only a few years behind Schwarzenegger (65) and Stallone (66), yet he doesnt lean on his seniority as a punchline, and audiences have very little trouble accepting him as a lethal weapon. (Speaking of which, we can only pray that Mel Gibson and Danny Glover never reunite for a fifth Lethal Weapon, because that ship has sailed.)

I worry that because I'm a man, I am going to sexually abuse someone.
My mom was a victim of incest as a girl and has used it to invalidate my emotions. I blame the incest, not my mom, but it still hurts. But I can't help but feel like I, as a man, am dirty to be sexual. I can't draw a line in my head between good sex and bad sex. I am a virgin because when I get close to sex, the girl will start reminding me of my mom or my sister. I'm afraid if I don't lose my virginity soon I will develop a sexual frustration that will eventually cause me to hurt someone. I know that I'm just a troubled, caring guy. But I can't help but hate myself sexually. I don't know what to do.
What's it called when you're a straight girl who finds other women beautiful?
What do you call it when you're sexually attracted to men (I'm a girl), but you can also appreciate female beauty? I'm straight and would not want a woman as a sexual partner. However, it's not unusual when I see a beautiful woman to think "damn, she's smokin'" the same way I might think "wow, he's a hunk" when I see an attractive guy. I also realize I have the capacity for 'girl crushes'--usually when I find another women admirable, not even in a sexual way or anything. I might admire her for her skill, personality, or expertise, as well as her physical beauty. What's up with that?
Three on Getting to the Bottom of Things
So my boyfriend of 9 months was asking me about anal sex. We only ever done oral sex, so when he brought up anal I was a little scared. We both decided to at least see if it could work. We were at his house and I got on my knees and he slowly went in. At first if hurt then it didn't. All in all we only did this for about 7 seconds then we stopped. We were never intending to do anal for longer than 15 seconds. We were just going to do long enough to see what it would be like. After we stopped we sat on the bed and I asked him if this counted as sex. He said that it didn't. (We are both virgins by the way...or maybe not?) I'm not sure if it counted. If it did then did I just lose my virginity?
Double Feature: Harassment and Flirting
I made a big fashion faux pas today to wear leggings without anything to cover my butt/crotch which resulted in a "cameltoe" (slang for labia majora being outlined through tight clothes). And a guy at school rudely pointed it out to me and implied I must have a lot of sex because that makes the outer lips more fleshy and prominent.
The thing is, I haven't had any sex, I'm still a virgin, so I was pretty embarrassed and offended. I just thought cameltoe was caused by clingy, tight clothes. Was this guy just ignorant about girls' bodies or is there some truth to what he is saying? I honestly feel ridiculous asking but I just had to make sure.
Prior to Periods
I'm 13 and i just want to know out of curiosity if you can have sex if you haven't ever had your periods AT ALL? Does it make any difference if you've had them before or if you haven't? Is it really possible to just get your first period while you're in class or doing something and actually have enough blood come out for you (and everybody else) to see, or does it come gradually and you actually have enough time to go to the bathroom and put a napkin? It's kind of scary ^^
I feel dirty and irresponsible because of genital herpes
I'm 20 and have been with my partner for about two and a half years. We have a great relationship and are happy together. However, two years ago, when we first started sleeping together, I contracted genital herpes, even though we used condoms. I was a virgin before I slept with him so I knew it had come from him. I was angry and upset but he kept telling me he had tested clean at his last STI check and couldn't understand that he must have it. When we went to the GUM clinic (together) they confirmed that I had herpes but told me that they don't test for herpes unless there are symptoms present. Therefore when my boyfriend had his previous check-up (symptom free) he tested clean for everything they test for and then went on to sleep with me. My boyfriend was upset that I was blaming him and was tested again for everything they test for to prove to me he wasn't lying when he told me he was clean. He was negative for everything they tested him for....except like last time, they didn't test for Herpes and told him they didn't test for it unless there were symptoms, which there wasn't. He says he doesn't remember ever having symptoms hence why he's never had a physical check for it. I KNOW I didn't do anything wrong, and neither did my boyfriend, but I feel so bad about myself. I feel like I should have done something before we slept together, but I don't know what. I asked him to make sure he was clean: he did. We had no idea that they didn't do standard tests for herpes.
How do I stop feeling dirty and like I was irresponsible?
When you use the pill, do you still have to use condoms?
I'm and 18 years old and have been having sex for a year and been on the pill for about a year. I take my birth control like a ritual at the same time every day (the combination pill). Sometime my boyfriend and I don't use a condom in the beginning to get him hard then we always put one on. My question is, when on the pill do you absolutely have to use condoms? They say that every time you have sex you NEED to use a condom. I know it is the most effective way, but I thought that the one of the points of the pill is so you don't need to use a condom.
How Can a Lesbian Have Sex With a Dyke? (Or, How Good Consent & Communication is the Answer to Everything for Everyone)
I'm a 19 year old lesbian ("Lipstick") and my girl friend is a "Dyke" and I know she has had previous partners and well so have I but never a Dyke. I'm scared of what may happen when we actually do have sex. What if I do something she's not comfortable with? Matter of fact what do I do if I do? I'm scared that I'll completely blow it and ruin our sexual relationship.
How to Become an Expatriate of Owville
I am a 20 year old female. I have been sexually active since I was 17. Every time I have sex whether I was in a relationship with them or not having sex hurt. When we first start to have sex it feels good, but after a few minutes it starts to hurt, feeling like the penis is hitting a wall. I can't last for more than around 5 minutes or the sex feels like intense pain. Also I have never has an orgasm while having sex, I just do not feel aroused in the same way while having sex, like I do when my clit is being played with. People tell me I just do not have sex often enough so I am not "stretched out" or "used to it" but it does not feel good to me at all, except for the first minute or 2. I don't understand why I don't enjoy sex like the rest of the human population.
How to See Coercion Clearly Through Love Glasses
I have a boyfriend been dating for about a year next week. We are deeply and truly in love even though we're not even 16. People say you can't really be in love at our age, but I believe you can be. Recently, I said no to sex, so I guess I pushed all the wrong buttons and this is what he said:
"I'm so [f-word]ing tired, I don't want to climb a ladder. I just want you but I can't [f-word] you and I have no weed any more, and [f-word] why do we need to [f-word]ing wait? I feel like I'm 12. I'm a [f-word]ing caged lion. I mean, I'm just angry, you know I haven't had sex in a [f-word]ing year and I'm so horny! [F-word]!"
Some basic gay-tiquette
My best friend just came out to me and I came out to him... now he wants to have sexual relations, what do I do?
It all happened a week ago. He told me he was bi, I told him that I am gay. After an awkward conversation he told me that he wanted to have sex with me minus an actual relationship and he told me that he prefers women but likes men as well. This is all troubling to me because I don't have any interest in him as a partner and telling me that he likes women is a big turn off. But the guy has never had a relationship with a man or woman. I kind of feel bad for him, he has had a lonely life. I have had several relationships both platonic and sexual. I would like to find a way to tell him that I am not his guy without hurting his feelings. We have been friends for 6 years now and the only reason why I haven't told him that I was gay before this point is because of his families very conservative views.
On a side note, What is the best way to tell girls who are infatuated with you that you are gay without offending them? For whatever reason, people have a hard time actually believing that I am gay. Thank you for your help!
Do these pants make me (look) trans?
My early childhood consisted of Legos and Hot Wheels. In junior high, I listened to more metal than pop, wore hoodies and Vans shoes, black nail polish and eyeliner. Nowadays, I've been getting more interested in piercings and tattoos. I've never felt like a girl for the most part, but I've never considered getting some sort of sex change or anything either. I've only been attracted to guys, as friends and romantically. Because of my hardcore tomboyishness, guys never ask me out/respond favorably when I flirt. In high school, everyone assumed I was a lesbian. I said no, since I don't like girls.
Since I feel more like a guy, but like guys, would that make me transgendered somehow?
What Makes Someone Good in Bed?
I'm confused as to how a girl can be "good" in bed in a heterosexual relationship? What does it mean to be good at sex?
Intercourse & Pleasure With a Spinal Cord Injury
I'm seventeen and partially paralyzed from the waist down. I injured myself and got a spinal cord injury about a year and a half ago. I can move my legs, but not all of my muscles work. I've been going out with my incredible boyfriend for a while now and we have started having vaginal sex. One of the downsides of a spinal cord injury is that everything from the waist down has a little less feeling than normal. It's really hard for me to get anywhere past feeling turned on, and I think it has something to do with my numbness. I make sure my boyfriend is really careful to not hurt me and communicate with him pretty well. Are there any lubricants or other products that I could use to make sex a little more pleasurable for me? It usually doesn't hurt, but I have a hard time feeling anything. I see commercials for stuff, but I don't really know if they work. Thanks!
A Faking Farewell
I've been in a relationship with my current boyfriend for a year now, and we've been having sexual intercourse for around 8 months. Throughout this time, I have NEVER reached an orgasm through sex, but because I thought I was the weird abnormal one, and was afraid of how my boyfriend may react, I since have faked it every single time which we have had sex. Sex is alright, but I now just want to tell him. But how do I explain to him that this isn't his fault without him being hurt and upset? Please help me because I really don't know what to do!
Three on Going With the Flow
I am going on a graduation-required 28 day backpacking trip. It is likely that this will happen to fall around my period. What is the best way to work with your period when backpacking? Pads are out of the question, as they are not so great for letting your pelvic area "breathe" during exercise. Tampons...meh. I don't really want to have to carry the new ones in with me (extra weight), or the used ones out with me, like you have to do with all garbage. I thought a menstrual cup would be good, as it can be worn for a long time and there is no garbage involved--however, cleaning the cup might be complicated because polluting is a no-no out in the elements. Maybe I could use wipes of some sort? Are there wipes that don't have body-upsetting chemicals? It would be nice to not have to deal with this for just one month--are there any sorts of short term forms of menstrual suppressors that I could use just one time without huge side effects?
The people in charge of the whole thing don't seem very educated about other options, and simply reassure all of the girls that they can use tampons and carry around all the garbage.
As a sexual abuse survivor, can I only connect to people sexually?
I was sexually abused, so I was wondering will I only want to find someone who I'm going to stay with for sex?
How can I stick to the promise I've made to myself to wait?
I'm a Christian, and I have decided to save myself till marriage. I'm perfectly fine with that. My boyfriend is fine with that too (we've been together a month), and respects my decision. However, like any celibate person would admit, sometimes I get these truly surreal urges for sex: I catch myself thinking that maybe even a little bit of touching while kissing would be fine, or I just think about what it would be like if we ever got married and ended up sleeping together. I have said nothing to my boyfriend, in case he misconstrues it as an invitation, but it has recently been very, very difficult to resist, especially with all these hormones making me want sex. I want to stay true to my decision to stay premaritally celibate, and I will pride myself on not being tempted, however my urges make the battle all the harder sometimes. Any suggestions?
How do I make my activism more accessible?
I'm trying to organise some sort of event/forum at my university in Australia about sexual assault and violence against women. I've got good ideas for speakers, the women's department at my uni is supportive and I have organised similar events before.
My problem is: how can I frame the event so as to draw people to whom information about sexual assault (myths, prevalance, how particular gender stereotypes/ideas about sexuality can contribute) would be most useful? Currently, events run by the women's department often only get a select group of women already engaged by feminist issues. I fear that if I call the event something like "myths and facts about sexual violence", or something similarly straightforward, it would only be attended by people from this group, as others would be intimidated by the reference to sexual violence and would view it as something only relevant to people who have experienced sexual violence, rather than EVERYONE!
The Ultimate Sex How-To Guide! (doesn't exist)

Am I Stupid for Loving a Guy Who Only Wants Sex?
So there is this guy that I really really like. I don't know how to get to him without having to put myself out there. He says he cares but then when we are with our friends he won't even talk to me. When we are alone he is always by me but wants to do anything other than talk, it seems like he only wants sex. We messed around once but I don't know what to do now. Am I stupid for falling in love with him and pretty much doing anything so that he will stay closer to me?

He's Giving Me 8 Weeks to be Ready for Intercourse... Help!
I've been seeing this guy from school for a couple months: three to be exact. From the moment we've met he's been interested in having sex, especially after he found out that I am a virgin and now he wants to be my first. He's pressuring me for pictures and oral sex, which we did but now he's pressuring me more for full on sex. We're not dating or in a relationship, all he says is that we're connected, which I don't understand. A couple days ago he said that he would give me 8 weeks to decide if I am gonna have sex, which will be in March.
He's the first guy to give me any sort of sexual attention, any attention more like it, I've always felt unsure of myself because I'm not a size six. I want to have sex, but with him I feel as if giving into finally have sex will just end up becoming sex and then the door. I don't want my first time to be a one night stand affair, he's assured me that it wouldn't be that way, but he's a guy looking for some. I'm real confused about what I should do with him. I want more than just sex, but I feel as if I wait it out long enough a relationship will grow. Please give me some help.
He wants to take his anger out on my body: that's not okay, right?
My ex-boyfriend and I are working through a very hard situation where in his perspective I cheated on him so I'm trying to fix things and gain his trust again. There has been a lot of pain and distrust between us lately but we are finally getting to a healthier, better place. However, he said something that really disturbed me the other day and I need someone else's perspective. He said he wanted to take his frustration and anger out on me sexually. I was appalled because sex is making love and that's the way I like it. When I protested and told him how absurd I thought it was he made me feel ridiculous and went on about how it was a creative solution and that I have to let him get through this his way by doing this to me. Is this a muffed up situation or am I overreacting?
How can I keep from getting upset when he ignores my no?
I'm 15 and my bf told me about a week ago that he thought I should be loosing my virginity and a few days ago I did. I was ok with this and only said once that if it was ok with him I'd like to stop (the way he was looking at me was creeping me out), but it wasn't ok with him so he kept going. Afterwards I really creeped out and for some reason I started crying all over the place, which I can't explain. He doesn't get this either and got really upset about it. I wanna make things back up with him so I've said that we can try again and that I wont react so badly. Is there anyway I can calm down enough so that I don't upset him again by freakin out? Hope you can help xxx

A poser is someone who dresses a way to fit in a group of kids that they are not. Usually posers talk way to much about a subject such as skateboarding that they arent even good at. There never seen skating but are seen at skateparks just sitting or just riding around not doing any tricks. When i see somebody wearing a Bam shirt or have a Bam board i see them as a poser. Dont wear element or adio, birdhouse, blind, or shorty's.If you wear a pink shirt, face it your gay dont wear pink. If you want to look cool or dress like you know what to wear my suggestions are: 10 DEEP is the shit, dope as fuckkk, Krew, RVCA pronounced as (rooka) if anybody tells you different tell them they're an idiot first then tell them that they're wrong. Acitve is dope i think, lakai, lrg, dgk, matix, nixon, and some Zoo York. You will deffinetly not look like a poser if you wear those brands with some CCS pants or Krew pants. They talk the talk but dont walk the walk. They listen to certain bands or rappers that other people listen to cuz they dont know what to listne to or becuase thats what everybody else listens to.
Poser: Yeah dude i skate i have a pink bam skateboard. My dad built me a box and a quaterpipe.

Tallahassee, Florida - As the clock ticks down on Florida's 2013 legislative session, state lawmakers are starting to wheel and deal.
The Senate passed a campaign finance reform bill Wednesday and in exchange, the House passed ethics reform legislation.
Senate President Don Gaetz pushed hard for the ethics bill, while House Speaker Will Weatherford considered campaign finance reform one of his top priorities.
The new campaign rules would raise the limit on political contributions from $500 per election to $3,000 for statewide candidates and $1,000 for state lawmakers and lower offices.
Bill sponsor Sen. Jack Latvala, R-Clearwater, says the new contribution limits have been used in the past.
"These are the levels that were in the statute up to 1991 and so we're basically just returning to the level of contribution that we had 20-some odd years ago."
But Gov. Rick Scott remains unconvinced about the need for higher contribution limits. He says no one has explained to him why the state should take that action.
"No one's showed me a rationale for raising these limits. So I don't know why we'd be doing it so I haven't seen the rationale yet."
The campaign finance reform legislation also eliminates Florida's murky Committees of Continuous Existence, but replaces them with something similar -- political committees would be able to take in unlimited amounts of donations, just as the CCE's were allowed to do.

Comments about Womens Under Armour UA Fly-By T Short Sleeve Technical Tops:
It is sheer, so if you are uncomfortable showing your sports bra you might need a tank underneath. I don't have the body to workout in just a bra, so I view this airy top as a cover-up of sorts.
