HELLYEAH, the new band featuring former PANTERA/DAMAGEPLAN drummer Vinnie Paul Abbott alongside members of MUDVAYNE and NOTHINGFACE, kicked off its "Fire It Up" tour Sunday night (May 20) in Baltimore. The group's setlist was as follows:01. Hellyeah
02. Matter of Time
03. Goddamn
04. Stone Cold Crazy (QUEEN cover)
05. Thank You
06. Waging War
07. Nausea
08. One Thing
09. In The Mood/Star
10. Rotten To The Core
12. You Wouldn't Know Bob Suehs of Rock N Roll Experience, who attended the concert, commented in his review: "I've personally covered too many shows at this venue to even remember them all, and in all that time, I've NEVER seen security as tight as it was at this particular show! I had a photo pass and I even went through a very detailed search...entrance into the venue was slow because of this, but I assume it was the necessary precaution that Vinnie wanted after the tragic situation he experienced, and to be totally honest with you, I don't blame him, and it almost reminded me of the strict airplane security after 9/11. I will be really curious to see if any bootlegs pop up from this tour, because the only other act I recall seeing with super tight security like this in recent years was MARILYN MANSON during the height of the band's career." Read the rest of Suehs' review, and check out photos from the concert, at Rock N Roll Experience. HELLYEAH will play this year's Download festival in England before taking part in this summer's Family Values Tour. Other bands scheduled to appear on the trek are EVANESCENCE, ATREYU, TRIVIUM and FLYLEAF, alongside headliners KORN.
HELLYEAH's self-titled debut album sold just under 45,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at No. 9 on The Billboard 200 chart. A three-minute clip featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the making of HELLYEAH's "You Wouldn't Know" video has been posted at YouTube. The clip was shot on February 25, 2007 with director Nathan Cox in the parking lot of the Dallas, Texas stripclub owned by Vinnie Paul Abbott. The finished "You Wouldn't Know" video is available for viewing at this location.

Out of the mouths of babes
Some of you may recall that several of my friends are pregnant. That, coupled with the fact that I have taken pictures of a few of them and their beautiful pregnant bellies (and have been working on their pictures on my computer), has lead Ava to believe that we ALL have a baby in our belly. She was eating lunch a few days ago, when she stopped what she was doing, pulled up her shirt, grabbed her chubby rolls and said, "baby." I tried to explain to her that she didn't have a baby in her belly. She looked perplexed, pointed at my belly andRead More →

text: Posted September 11, 2012 So is it just me that thinks that that is the kind of throw you WANT your franchise QB to be able to make? To find the opening in double and sometimes even TRIPLE coverage in order to get a critical completion downfield? Because that would have been a completed pass without the (uncalled) pass interference with the defender climbing Lafell like a ladder. When guys like Manning or Brady or Rodgers or (in the day) Favre make throws like that, people nod and say "yep, that's just what they do". I can't believe there are some fans that think that Cam shouldn't have thrown that pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I asked how much to just buy a washing machine at a rent2own place and they wanted a few hundred dollars more than a new one would have cost, the scratches must add value. you want to watch TV? buy a pair of binoculars and watch the neighbor's.
Those places are ridiculous. I had a friend that furnished his entire first apartment with stuff from one of those... In the end he paid 2-3 times retail value easily.
I am lucky my flat screen still works great .it is made by olevia and it has been a great tv.but its pretty old now so i expect to have to get a new one.

I saw a rent-to-own case where the contract grouped together your monthly payments. For every purchase you made there over time while maintaining a balance (TV first, then next year a stereo, etc), it spread your subsequent monthly payments out over all of them. That sounds nice and convenient, until you realize that nothing ever gets completely paid off until the final balance (of everything you've ever bought) is down to 0. So they could (and did) come and take ALL of the lady's stuff when she defaulted. Contract was later deemed void, but yeah, read the fine print.
Further more no one buys a tv on credit There so cheap today pay cash .

Summer Reading
Summer Reading
Natick High School English Department
Summer Reading Program 2015
NHS Summer Reading Philosophy
The Natick High School Summer Reading Program gives students the opportunity to explore a work of literature that is thematically rich and thought-provoking. Chosen literature includes themes, subject matter, and/or characters that are relevant to the age, experience, and interests of our students, and reading level and length are appropriate to grade level. The goal of NHS Summer Reading is to foster a life-long love of reading.
New This Year! (2015) All students (except those in AP Literature or Language) will choose ONE book from a list of three options according to their grade as listed below. In the fall, students will participate in a small group discussion on the major themes and topics of their chosen text. (See below for other requirements for Honors and AP classes)
Entering 9th OR 10th grade: Choose ONE
Girl in Translation by Jean Kwok
Synopsis excerpted from BN.com When Kimberly Chang and her mother emigrate from Hong Kong to Brooklyn squalor, she quickly begins a secret double life: exceptional schoolgirl during the day, Chinatown sweatshop worker in the evenings. Disguising the more difficult truths of her life--like the staggering degree of her poverty, the weight of her family's future resting on her shoulders, or her secret love for a factory boy who shares none of her talent or ambition--Kimberly learns to constantly translate not just her language but herself back and forth between the worlds she straddles. Through Kimberly's story, author Jean Kwok, who also emigrated from Hong Kong as a young girl, brings to the page the lives of countless immigrants who are caught between the pressure to succeed in America, their duty to their family, and their own personal desires, exposing a world that we rarely hear about ... Girl in Translation is an unforgettable and classic American immigrant novel—a moving tale of hardship and triumph, heartbreak and love, and all that gets lost in translation.
A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier by Ishmael Beah
Synopsis excerpted from BN.com Child soldiers are being used as human pawns in dozens of conflicts around the world. Indeed, the figures are staggering: As many as 300,000 children are currently fighting in wars. Behind these distressing figures, of course, are real-life children, some as young as 8. Journalistic reconstructions can take us only so far into the lives of these boys; we had to wait for this firsthand account by Sierra Leone native Ishmael Beah to truly understand this ghastly, life-shattering practice. Beah was only 13 when he was handed an AK-47 and sent off to the killing fields. A bracing memoir about a survivor in a world gone mad.
The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie
Synopsis excerpted from BN.com Bestselling author Sherman Alexie tells the story of Junior, a budding cartoonist growing up on the Spokane Indian Reservation. Determined to take his future into his own hands, Junior leaves his troubled school on the rez to attend an all-white farm town high school where the only other Indian is the school mascot. Heartbreaking, funny, and beautifully written, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, which is based on the author's own experiences, coupled with poignant drawings by Ellen Forney that reflect the character's art, chronicles the contemporary adolescence of one Native American boy as he attempts to break away from the life he was destined to live.
Entering 11th OR 12th grade: Choose ONE
Into the Wild by Jack Krakauer
Synopsis excerpted from BN.com Immediately after graduating from college in 1991, [Christopher] McCandless roamed through the West and Southwest on a vision quest like those made by his heroes Jack London and John Muir. In the Mojave Desert he abandoned his car, stripped it of its license plates, and burned all of his cash. He would give himself a new name, Alexander Supertramp, and, unencumbered by money and belongings, he would be free to wallow in the raw, unfiltered experiences that nature presented. Craving a blank spot on the map, McCandless simply threw the maps away. Leaving behind his desperate parents and sister, he vanished into the wild.... Admitting an interest that borders on obsession, [Krakauer] searches for the clues to the drives and desires that propelled McCandless. Digging deeply, he takes an inherently compelling mystery and unravels the larger riddles it holds: the profound pull of the American wilderness on our imagination; the allure of high-risk activities to young men of a certain cast of mind; the complex, charged bond between fathers and sons.
The Heart of the Sea: The Tragedy of the Whaleship Essex by Nathaniel Philbrick
Synopsis excerpted from Publishers' Weekly review. In 1821, a whaling ship came upon a small boat off the coast of Chile containing two deranged men surrounded by human bones . . . . The two were survivors of one of the most well-known marine disasters of the 19th century: the sinking of a 240-ton Nantucket whaleship by an 80-ton sperm whale. A maritime historian, Philbrick recounts the hellish wreck of the Essex (which inspired Melville's Moby-Dick) and its sailors' struggle to make their way to South America, 2,000 miles away. Of the 20 men aboard the two boats, only eight would remain alive through the ravages of thirst, hunger and desperation that beset the voyage. With a gracefulness of language that rarely falters, Philbrick spins a ghastly, irresistible tale that draws upon archival material (including a cabin boy's journal discovered in 1960). Philbrick shows how the Quaker establishment of Nantucket ran a hugely profitable whaling industry in the 18th and 19th centuries and provides a detailed account of shipboard life.
We Were Liars by E. Lockhart
Synopsis excerpted from School Library Journal review. Cadence Sinclair Easton comes from an old-money family, headed by a patriarch who owns a private island off of Cape Cod. Each summer, the extended family gathers at the various houses on the island, and Cadence, her cousins Johnny and Mirren, and friend Gat (the four "Liars"), have been inseparable since age eight. During their fifteenth summer however, Cadence suffers a mysterious accident. She spends the next two years—and the course of the book—in a haze of amnesia, debilitating migraines, and painkillers, trying to piece together just what happened. . . . The story, while lightly touching on issues of class and race, more fully focuses on dysfunctional family drama, a heart-wrenching romance between Cadence and Gat, and, ultimately, the suspense of what happened during that fateful summer. The ending is a stunner that will haunt readers for a long time to come.
Excerpted from Wall Street Journal. "Haunting, sophisticated . . . a novel so twisty and well-told that it will appeal to older readers as well as to adolescents."

My primary concern is overeating not unhealthy eating. What I can tell you for sure is that I am not good with deprivation. I plan to just moderate my unhealthy foods because Thanksgiving does just happen once a year, and I plan to fill up on healthy food (fruits and veggies) throughout the day in order to not be too hungry at meal time. I also want to make sure that I constantly remind myself that Thanksgiving is only 1 day not the 4 days that I am off work.
Thanksgiving food is not really that unhealthy. Turkey is low fat and lean, Green beans are a free veggie, and mashed potatoes will not hurt you in single servings. It is the stuffing and bread that I am concerned about because I never have stuffing or really good rolls. I just don't even keep that stuff in the house because I know myself better than to do that.

Hearing without your ears —— how it works
Into the water you go. The gurgling fills your ears. Then, with a flick of a finger, classical music to suit your underwater ballet. Or, hear the voice of your swimming coach, as clear as if on land.
It's the Aqua Sphere FM Radio Snorkel, from Vista-based Aqua Sphere. Just as joggers can carry an iPod to hear their favorite tunes, the Radio Snorkel is aimed at water-lovers who now practice their sport without auditory enhancement.
The device works in a way familiar to anyone who has ever put a tuning fork to their head: Sound vibrations conduct to the inner ear through the bone, bypassing the ear, eardrum and the inner ear bones. The Radio Snorkel transmits sound through the mouthpiece. Bite on it, and seemingly out of nowhere, you hear music -- the vibrations that conduct the sound are imperceptible.
The principle of bone conduction has been known for a long time, but is now being increasingly applied in devices such as the Radio Snorkel.
Toward the end of last year, Sanyo announced that it would start selling in Japan a cell phone that works through bone conduction, the TS41, cheekily called the "Bone Phone." It's supposed to be most useful in areas with loud noise, where air conduction of sound is impractical.
Bone conduction is also a reminder that hearing, which seems a straightforward process, is actually extremely complicated, a seemingly random jumble of components that (in most cases) work so well that we rarely think about it.
Tracing it back
Hearing, as with all other sensations, is perceived in the brain, carried by nerves that transmit sensory signals from elsewhere in the body. Specific regions of the brain in both hemispheres perform the job of somehow placing these signals into our consciousness. At any step along the way, a malfunction can leave a person partially or wholly deaf.
Here is the process of hearing in brief, as detailed by researchers in the field:
The nerve that carries the electrical signals created by sound to the brain is logically enough called the auditory nerve. If the nerve is severed, people lose their hearing.
The auditory nerve runs from the brain to various kinds of "hair cells," which connect at their root to nerve fibers that lead to the auditory nerve. The hair cells originate the signals that the auditory nerve carries to the brain. At the top, these hair cells have minute hairs called sterocilia. When these sterocilia are compressed by vibrations, they trigger the cells to produce electrical signals. If the hair cells are damaged, such as by loud noise, hearing loss results.
The hair cells are embedded in the cochlea, a fluid-filled organ with spirals resembling that of a snail shell. This marks the beginning of what is called the inner ear.
The cochlea is constructed in an extremely complex manner, with inner chambers, canals and partition that direct pressure vibrations to the appropriate hair cells, which are sensitive to vibrations of differing pitch and amplitude. Damage to the cochlea impairs hearing.
Juncture point
The cochlea is the connecting point for sound transmitted through the air and sound transmitted through bone, said Ed Givelberg, an associate scientist in the department of electrical engineering and computer science at UC Berkeley.
"The cochlea is situated in a cavity in the temporal bone, which is the hardest bone in your body," Givelberg said. "The temporal bone conducts vibrations very well."
You don't even have to try the tuning fork on the skull trick to experience bone conduction, Givelberg said. It happens every time you talk, because you hear the sound of your voice largely through bone conduction.

Hey, all.
I'm fresh on this forum, but not on two wheels. Not pushing 50, I'm hauling it in my trailer! Clipless, fat tires, dual suss, SMALL air on the occasional trail or off the curb during a commute; in the Great Lakes area, weather can be a little rough, but it takes ice or deep snow to keep me off the saddle. Cold is just cold, rain is just wet.
My daughter nears my passion for riding; she would love to ride to school, but it just wouldn't work out, it's not safe for her. She's a 'tween' right now, talks the talk, but we'll see if she walks the walk. She wants to do the ride of silence, and break 25 miles this year. It IS a little tough to see her lip poke out when I have to keep her home w/ our extended family so I can go pay bills in miserable weather, but that's life.
Don't have the time or the room for an SO right now; wouldn't be fair to whatever 'her' it would be, nor would it be fair to my child. My SO is my bike right now.

The hair-centric among us have one burning question for Blake Lively: how does she get those gorgeous waves? Though our curiosity may never be fully satisfied, we can all get better hair with this shine-enhancing conditioner, which was inspired by the "Gossip Girl" star. Specially designed for long hair, it detangles knots, repairs damage, and glossifies each strand. Next up: show-stealing locks worthy of a red carpet premiere.
I'm still to find a good conditioner for long, straight, fine hair. This conditioner helps with detangling hair, but unfortunately it is rather heavy and weighs my hair down quite a bit. Instead of using conditioner, I have now resorted to oiling my hair with cold-pressed almond oil at night and shampooing it out the next day once a week. This has been working pretty well and has really stymied hair fall, and I'm still to find a conditioner that does a better job.2
I didn't use the shampoo with this product, but I tried the conditioner because the ingredients seemed ok. I was not impressed with the look of my hair after using this product. My curls were not as moisturized as they are with my regular conditioner. It simply wasn't for me.3

Article 1 – Objectives
This article sets out the overall objectives and direction of the Treaty and outlines the framework within which implementing actions have to be taken. It sets the stage for the subsequent articles which establish more specific obligations. Defining the objectives of the Treaty in precise terms also allows for ongoing evaluation of the extent to which the objectives are being attained by providing a point of reference or benchmark for monitoring implementation.
By providing an overall sense of direction, this article helps to:
Ensure that balanced decisions are taken. Where one activity under the Treaty may conflict with another, the article may provide some safeguard that all interests are considered. It would not, for example, be in conformity with this article to pursue policies of access to PGRFA without considering the fair and equitable sharing of the benefits derived from their use.
Resolve cases of divergent interpretation, possible conflicts between different provisions, and assist in settling disputes.
For all these reasons, Article 1 is important for all those involved with the Treaty, including in particular the Treaty's Governing Body (see Article 19), and Contracting Parties' national policy-makers charged with ensuring the implementation of the Treaty within their jurisdictions.
The Article also has important legal consequences for states signatory to the Treaty that have not yet ratified it, and for states that have ratified it but for whom the Treaty has not yet entered into force. Under Article 18 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, once a state has signed a treaty or expressed its consent to be bound by a treaty, it is bound to refrain from acts that would defeat the object and purpose of the treaty, pending the entry into force for it of the Treaty.
1.1 The objectives of this Treaty are the conservation and sustainable use of plant genetic resources for food and agriculture and the fair and equitable sharing of the benefits arising out of their use, in harmony with the Convention on Biological Diversity, for sustainable agriculture and food security.
This first paragraph of this article states the objectives of the Treaty:
The conservation (see in particular Article 5) and sustainable use (see in particular Article 6) of PGRFA;
The equitable sharing of the benefits arising out of their use (see in particular Articles 9 and 13); and
With the ultimate goal of achieving sustainable agriculture and food security.
These objectives establish, first, the fundamental balance of the Treaty between conservation and sustainable use and second, the balance between both of these and benefit sharing. Third, they emphasize the ultimate, essentially agricultural, scope and aim of the Treaty. In this connection it is to be noted that the subject matter of the Treaty is PGRFA as defined in Article 2: plant genetic material of actual or potential value for food and agriculture. The Treaty provides for its conservation, use and benefit sharing for the purpose of achieving sustainable agriculture and food security.
The paragraph makes the explicit statement that the objectives of the Treaty are to be attained "in harmony with the Convention on Biological Diversity." It was the original request of both Agenda 21, adopted at UNCED in 1992, and the FAO Conference in 1993 that the adaptation of the International Undertaking should be in harmony with the CBD. The Treaty provides a more detailed regime applicable to PGRFA within the overall regime applicable to biodiversity in general. For the PGRFA included in the Multilateral System, the Treaty provides for mutually agreed terms of access and benefit sharing that have been pre-agreed by the Parties on a multilateral basis.
Biodiversity is defined very broadly in the CBD as "the variability among living organisms from all sources including, inter alia, terrestrial, marine and other aquatic ecosystems and the ecological complexes of which they are part; this includes diversity within species, between species and of ecosystems." The CBD therefore encompasses all the variability among the building blocks of life (i.e., genetic diversity), different life forms (species diversity) and the interrelationships of life (ecosystem diversity). In other words, the CBD is the legally binding umbrella for all levels and forms of diversity. The Treaty, in contrast, focuses on one specific area of biological diversity, namely, the diversity of plants used for one particular purpose, namely food and agriculture. It is nevertheless apparent that the objectives of the CBD and the Treaty are complementary, and as such, need to operate in harmony.
Unlike the International Undertaking, which specifically referred to the concept of 'availability' in its objectives, the Treaty does not mention access as one of its objectives. However the notion of availability is implicit in the notion of sustainable use.
1.2 These objectives will be attained by closely linking this Treaty to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and to the Convention on Biological Diversity.
Having defined the objectives in the first paragraph, the second paragraph proceeds to state one important aspect of the means by which the objectives are to be attained. The negotiators of the Treaty recognized that PGRFA are an important component of biodiversity in general, as well as an essential basis for agriculture and food security. Some negotiators, and at one time the Conference of the Parties to the CBD,53 had thought that the Treaty might be adopted as a protocol to the CBD, which would naturally emphasize the environmental dimension of the Treaty. However, the agricultural dimension of the new Treaty and the importance of PGRFA for world food security and the need for specialized agricultural expertise in the implementation of the Treaty warranted its adoption as a separate agreement within the constitutional framework of FAO. The second paragraph recognizes this twofold dimension of the Treaty and requires that close links be established both with the FAO, representing the agricultural interest and expertise, and the CBD, representing the interests and expertise of general biodiversity and the environment.
i) FAO– The FAO has a long-standing involvement with PGRFA which goes back to the 1960s.54 The International Undertaking on Plant Genetic Resources was adopted by the FAO Conference in 1983 and was, as stated earlier, the first international instrument that addressed the conservation and sustainable use of PGRFA. In 1989, the FAO Conference adopted a series of Agreed Interpretations of the International Undertaking. The FAO is also the focal point in the UN system for world food security and was the host of the World Food Summit in 1996. The link to FAO is therefore a logical one, as is the decision to place the Treaty's Governing Body and Secretariat within FAO. A potential consequence, at the national level, would be to expect the responsible ministry of agriculture to be the "lead agency". In any case, given the agricultural flavour of the Treaty, the ministry responsible for agriculture should be closely involved in its implementation.
ii) CBD – In a broader context, as specified in the Preamble, the issue of PGRFA is also closely linked to the CBD. Adopted as part of the UNCED in 1992, the CBD provided a comprehensive framework for the conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity, and a framework for access to genetic resources and sharing the benefits of their utilization. Its emphasis is on decision-making at the national level, in recognition of the sovereign rights that states have over their natural resources (including biodiversity). (For a description of the CBD, see Box 3.)
53See Conference of the Parties to the CBD, Decision III/11, at para. 18.
54While some activities took place in the 1950s, the 1961 Technical Meeting on Plant Exploration and Introduction was the first initiative on a wide multilateral basis. For a history of FAO's involvement in plant genetic resources, see Robin Pistorius, "Scientists, plants and politics: A History of the Plant Genetic Resources Movement" (Rome: International Plant Genetic Resources Institute, 1997).

Bringin' Up The Rear on a 1929 Ford Model A TudorWritten by on May 2, 2005 Installing Lincoln Brakes on a Model A Rearend
We recently installed a dropped axle and juice brakes ("Lowered Expectations," May '05) on our restored '29 Model A Tudor, so it was only natural that we continue on from there with the installation of hydraulic brakes on the rear. Again we used a complete conversion kit from MT Car Products because for this project we really like the way Dave Wilton has designed his products to bolt up and upgrade an original Model A Ford with the least amount of fabrication and modification possible. In fact, beyond pulling the rear hubs and drilling a couple holes this is strictly a bolt-on affair.
MT Car Products offers different levels and options to its kits, and the one we'll be installing in this story is the complete "deluxe" rear kit using the 12-inch Bendix self-energizing full-contact brakes as were used as original equipment on prewar Lincoln automobiles. Hot rodders have long praised the great stopping power of the Lincoln-style brakes, and today the scarce units have been faithfully and 100-percent accurately reproduced for the discriminating enthusiast who requires that their vehicle be period correct with the best available new parts. Beyond the fully loaded and ready-to-install backing plates, the "deluxe" kit also includes new drums, reconditioned hubs, pre-formed brake lines, emergency brake cables, and all the necessary hardware required for installation.
Even though we were already familiar with the ease of the installation of the front-brake conversion, the rear kit went on even easier (perhaps because the designer Dave Wilton assisted us this time) than we ever imagined. In the first story we installed MT Car Products "basic" kit with '40 Ford-style backing plates and our own used drums. Since the back was now sportin' the Lincoln-style Bendix backing plates and fresh drums, we went ahead and upgraded the front with matching hardware. All the pieces mount up exactly the same and require no additional modifications. Another upgrade added was a set of MT Car Products wire wheel support rings to keep our Kelsey Hayes spoke wheels tightly mounted to the drums without damaging the wheels. Originally Fords that came equipped with wire wheels (up to 1935) had an inner support for the mounting surface of the original wire wheels cast into the original brake drums. The later drums originally designed for disc-style rims lacked this support and over time wire wheels mounted to the later drums will become damaged and lug nuts can loosen and various dangers can ensue from there.
By the time you are reading this MT Car Products will also be offering another great new safety product, brand-new Buick finned aluminum brake drums and new hubs which can be added to any of their 1928 to 1948 Ford brake packages or bolted on to your existing early Ford brakes with no modifications necessary. We already know of a few cars we can't wait to mount these on!

All the pieces you will need to convert your Model A rearend to Lincoln-style Bendix full-contact hydraulic brakes come ready to install in a complete kit from MT Car Products.
After removing the rear wheels, the first step to better braking is the removal of the original rear drums. A hub puller is the only tool required and is not usually found in the most basic of toolboxes.
The emergency brake assembly on the stock rearend has its own narrow full shoe and was removed after disconnecting the mechanical brake rods.After removing the four inner bolts, the emergency brake support ring and original backing plate were separated from the rearend.Dave scribed marks approximately 1 inch from the ends of the supplied preformed brake lines on the wishbones before removing them.Using the scribed locations, holes were drilled in the wishbones and then tapped to mount aircraft-style Adel clamps to secure the brake lines to the wishbones. These clamps will keep the brake lines from vibrating and chattering on the wishbone.The brake line junction block was attached to the driver-side wishbone. This block connects to the master cylinder (see "Lowered Expectations," May '05) and feeds both rear brake lines.
From this angle you can see the special spacers MT Car Products supplies with their kit which spaces the backing plate away from the axle so no modifications to either part is required. Without the spacers the backing plate would touch the rear spring mount. The supplied pre-bent brake line connected to the wheel cylinder.The brake line was attached to the block that was then attached to the master cylinder with a supplied flexible rubber brake hose. This setup is modeled after the tried-and-true system used on all prewar hydraulic-brake-equipped Fords.The brake line was attached to the block that was then attached to the master cylinder with a supplied flexible rubber brake hose. This setup is modeled after the tried-and-true system used on all prewar hydraulic-brake-equipped Fords.The forward end of the new emergency brake cables ingenuously connected to the original e-brake assembly that originally accentuated the solid mechanical brake rods. Slick!The reconditioned rear hub, which includes a special spacer to match the one on the backing plate, slid right on the axle.The new USA-made drum is a high-quality item that slips right into place on the hub (note: original drums were swedge-fit to the hubs).Because we are using bent-spoke Kelsey Hayes wheels (same applies to any early Ford spoke wheels) it was necessary to use these wheel support rings from MT Car Products to avoid stressing the wheels that were originally designed for use with drums with inner supports cast into them (all 1935 and earlier Fords). This self-centering wheel support stays in place and due to its size are not easily lost or forgotten during wheel changes.

Congregation Beth El in Bethesda, Md., is a classic suburban Conservative synagogue, boasting a membership of 1,100 households and such varied programming as a Yiddish film festival, tallit-making workshops and an adult education institute. A sprawling building, newly enlarged, contains all this bustling activity.
Large congregations like Beth El offer much, yet they sometimes suffer from a reputation for lackluster services that contrasts with their crowded preschools and the abundant activities on offer.
And while Beth El's cantor, Matthew Klein, says that the synagogue has always had "a big singing crowd," he also says he's trying to make services more participatory, and passionate. Congregant Robert Judson, a risk management consultant, says Cantor Klein is having an impact.
"Something is changing," said Judson, a 56-year-old risk management consultant and musician who himself considered being a cantor in his youth. "All of a sudden, it feels like the formula for making the service accessible is right there. People can find a connection through what Matt's doing."
In both the Conservative and the Reform movements, and in seminaries and synagogues unaffiliated with any movement, the role of the cantor is evolving rapidly. Many, like Judson, say this is a good thing, but not everybody welcomes the changes.
"I think everyone is trying to figure out the future of the cantorate," said Ora Horn Prouser, executive vice president and academic dean at the Academy for Jewish Religion, a pluralistic rabbinical and cantorial school in Yonkers, just north of the Bronx.
Congregations — like Beth El — are increasingly shifting away from the "frontal" style in which the cantor leads the congregation like a conductor and toward communal singing, Prouser said.
"Once upon a time, you couldn't ask a cantor to lift a chair to help set up," said Yosef Goldman, 34, a rabbinical student at the Conservative movement's Jewish Theological Seminary who also spent two years there as a full-time cantorial student and is earning a master's degree in sacred music. "Back then, cantors were rock stars."
Today, the training at JTS is increasingly focused on how cantors can inspire a congregation to sing together, said Cantor Nancy Abramson, director of the H.L. Miller Cantorial School there. For example, Abramson brings in leaders of the independent minyan movement as guest teachers.
"What the independent minyan movement has hit on is the value of the group, how collective participation can really inspire in a way that a frontal experience might not be able to," Cantor Abramson said.
She is also requiring JTS' cantorial students to learn at least basic guitar-playing skills: "A guitar just says, 'Sing with me.' You don't have to be a great guitarist."
Time was, Conservative cantors focused on voice training and the scholarly study of classical nusach, the melodies characteristic of various Jewish communities, from Yemen to Poland. The Reform movement was known for its "song leader" tradition most famously associated with singer-songwriter Debbie Friedman, in which the service's leader would use a guitar to inspire the entire group to sing.
Indeed, most Conservative rabbis used to forbid musical instruments during services for fear that their use would cause congregants to break the laws against carrying or fixing things during Shabbat or major Jewish holidays, said Rabbi Elliot Dorff, chairman of the Rabbinical Assembly's Committee on Law and Standards. They might, for example, carry the instruments to synagogue or fix a broken guitar string.
But that's changing as more Conservative congregations come to prefer a song-leader-style cantor. So many Conservative congregations are moving in that direction that Rabbi Dorff recently submitted to the committee a responsa, or legal opinion, providing guidelines on the use of musical instruments on holidays, because it's becoming more common.
"Young people have their iPods … and earphones in their ears 24-7," Dorfff said. "Rabbis are responding to the aesthetic of their younger members."
The opinion didn't receive the six of 25 votes necessary to pass it because many Conservative movement leaders still don't approve of using musical instruments on Shabbat or holidays. Nonetheless, Rabbi Dorff predicted, the majority of Conservative synagogues will be doing so within 30 years. In the meantime, individual rabbis will simply continue setting their own rules for their congregations without official input from the movement's leadership.
Just as some rabbis object to the musical changes in Conservative synagogues, so do some congregants, said Joey Wiesenberg, a musician and musical director at the Conservative Kane Street Synagogue. He's also one of the leaders of the independent minyan movement who's taught at JTS. Not everybody wants a more expressive service, he said.
"No matter how much some people want something, there's always people who don't," he said. "And a lot is learned from them. Some people want their private space … they might appreciate a lack of intensity. They have intense lives, so it's nice to go and sit somewhere quiet."
Another challenge Wiesenberg and Cantor Klein face is congregants who may want to sing, but lack the Hebrew skills to do so. Such worshippers might have been more comfortable with a traditional cantor who didn't try to generate a collective response.
Both use niggunim, or wordless melodies, to facilitate the participation of those who have less liturgical literacy.
"The niggun is essential," Wiesenberg said. "It's the leveling agent."
And they both believe congregants of all ages who want to learn will do so.
"We have a learner's service," Klein said. "People are hungry to find out if God is different from what they learned about when they were 12."
The Conservative movement is itself still learning from its member congregations what they want in a cantor: JTS hired a consulting firm to help re-envision its program after it decided in 2010 to restructure it and eliminate the dean's position, said Cantor Stephen Stein, executive vice president of the movement's Cantors Assembly, which places cantors in congregations.
Cantor Stein didn't divulge any details of the consultants' findings so far, lest they influence the responses to future surveys or focus groups.
The announcement to eliminate its dean was a low point for the cantorial program's students, but the school has moved on, said Goldman, the JTS rabbinical student who is getting a degree from the cantorial school as well.
"There isn't the sense anymore that they're just waiting for the school to die," he said. "If there weren't these economic challenges, it would be an optimistic time. Now there is the fear of not getting a job."
As first the recession and then a soft economy has squeezed synagogue budgets, many have had to cut back on hiring, which has forced cantors to broaden their job descriptions.
It has also discouraged some aspiring cantors. Enrollment at the cantorial programs in both the Conservative and Reform movements has dropped since 2008; from 38 to 20 students at JTS and from 43 to 36 students at the Reform movement's Debbie Friedman School of Sacred Music.
"For years when I was thinking of becoming a cantor, people said, 'You would be great, and by the way, there are many more jobs than there are cantors,'" said Jeffrey Warschauer, 52, an established musician who plans to freelance as a cantor after he finishes the program at JTS. "That has changed. There are very wonderful cantors who are out of work."
At JTS, Cantor Abramson is encouraging her students to pursue qualifications beyond the musical: two are serving as military chaplains, two will leave with degrees from both the cantorial and the education schools, and one will receive a certificate in pastoral education in addition to her cantorial degree.
"My overarching goal is to broaden the career path for cantors," Cantor Abramson said.
In the Reform movement, faculty, students and cantors in the field all describe their role as "co-clergy" with rabbis. The April announcement that Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion would begin to ordain its cantors, as it does rabbis, instead of "investing" them, was a recognition of cantors' expanded roles, they say.
Under Cantor Bruce Ruben, the director of the Debbie Friedman School, HUC-JIR has added to its requirements for cantorial students, who now complete a five-year program, as rabbinical students do. Rabbinical students still astudy more Jewish text than cantors, Ruben said, but more such training is required of cantors now.
The Academy for Jewish Religion already ordains its cantors; JTS probably will eventually do so as well, Cantor Abramson said.
"The role of the cantor is becoming much more well-rounded," said Amanda Kleinman, 25, a student at the Debbie Friedman School. "It involves pastoral work, a lot of education, things that people might not have thought are part of the cantor's job description."
This evolution of the cantor's role has generated some tensions within the clergy.
Cantors who fail to grow along with their field may find themselves out of a job before they are ready to retire, Abramson said.
"Some older colleagues are living in the past," she said. "Unless someone is willing to retool, and change and learn, you can't make them change. It's painful and difficult."
Also, as the economy shrinks synagogue staffs and cantors learn more of what used to be the province of rabbis, some wonder whether the two might start to compete with each other.
Reform Rabbi Dana Evan Kaplan laid out this possibility in an opinion piece for JTA after his movement decided to ordain cantors.
"I would argue that they don't need rabbis if a cantor can do everything rabbis can do," he told The Jewish Week. "They can sing and run the music. With the emphasis on spirituality, you don't need a great scholar … I would see the cantor as more important to the future of American Judaism. I hate to say it, but cantors can make people feel good."

As a cantorial graduate of the Academy for Jewish Religion, I have a deep appreciation for the changing world of Jewish professionals. I am currently, and not for the first time, serving as both cantor and rabbi in a Conservative synagogue in Nashville, TN. While I have great respect for the depth of knowledge (in law, Talmud, responsa, etc.) that my rabbinic colleagues bring to the table, I feel that I have the skills to serve the day-to-day needs of my mid-sized congregation well.
I think that a lot of people - both cantors, indie minyan leaders, and laypeople who sometimes lead services - want to learn new tunes, and grow in their ability to lead a beautiful musical service, they just don't know where or how to learn those skills. Demand is there, supply isn't. One group trying to remedy this problem is Mehcon Hadar, which is hosting a Nigun and Nusach seminar this December. (http://www.mechonhadar.org/nusah-and-nigun-intensive) It looks like Mr. Weisenberg, mentioned in your article, is one of the program leaders. What a great opportunity.
Nice article whats happening with Cantors in the Reform and Conservative movements. However, there was no mention as to the same thing happening a lot longer to Cantors in the the Orthodox movement. We have had to go to a lot more Congregational participation for years using Chassidic melodies from singers such as Carlbach,Werdeger,Sheweckey and Fried etc. This is what Orthodox Congregations want today. The hardest thing is making sure its the correct Nusach,which is the right melody fitting correctly in our prayers, and making sure the meoldies fit the words; not forcing the words to the melodies. You can get more details on this from YU's Cantorial School, The Belz School Of Music. Phone# is 212-960-5353

"Nauru" Nauru by Mark_24
Nauru Travel Guide: 35 reviews and 46 photos
What can I say about Nauru......Well it's a tiny Island in the pacific. It would have to be one of the smallest countries in the world! In a car, doing about 50kmh, it will take you about 15 minutes to drive completely around the coast to where you started!
It's not a tourist destination. You would most likely have a specific reason to come to Nauru. There's a very peaceful, relaxed atmosphere to Nauru. The locals are friendly and extremely laid back.
When you're driving or walking about, the locals will acknowledge you by nodding their head upwards rather then down. There's a nack to it, you'll get plenty of practice!
- Pros:Good fishing, relaxed atmosphere, friendly people!
- Cons:Corrupt government, Can get very hot, power cut outs are common, low quality restaurants and shopping facilities, Island occasionally runs out of fuel, major lack of entertainment.
- In a nutshell:Unless you have a specific reason to go to Nauru, then you may want to seriously re-think your holiday destination.

In Arizona, buffalo or bison are found on two wildlife areas operated by the Game and Fish Department; Raymond, located east of Flagstaff, and House Rock, located east of the North Kaibab. Both wildlife areas are managed to provide viewing opportunities as well as recreation for sport hunters.
Life History
Buffalo, or Bison, are the largest living member in the cow family. Adult weights range from 1,400 to 2,500 pounds for males and 750 to 1,600 pounds for females. Male buffalo have massive appearing front quarters with a large hump above the shoulders; these are covered with woolly hair up to 1.5 inches long that also covers the head and forelegs. This hair will turn tan with age and is two to five times thicker than hind quarter hair. The head has a broad triangular appearance with a beard. Calves are reddish-tan at birth and change to brown or black at three months. The hump and horns begin developing at six months age. Both males and females have horns. Male horns can reach 20" long. Female horns are always smaller. Smell and hearing is acute, while eyesight is poor. Adult buffalo can run sprints of 35 mph for up to 1/4 mile and they can run longer distances at slower speeds. Buffalo are also capable of jumping over 6 foot high fences without touching the fence. While buffalo may live as long as 28 years, few attain the age of 12 to 15 years. They are gregarious and can form large herd groups. Herd groups are unstable and group composition changes constantly. Herd groups are dominated by a matriarchal female, except during breeding.
Adult buffalo eat approximately 35 pounds per day. Although local variations in forage availability and preferences occur, they will shift toward the most abundant forage; eating grasses, forbs, and browse.
Hunt History
Public buffalo hunts have been held at House Rock Wildlife Area since the 1920s. These buffalo, which were originally brought to Arizona Charles Jesse "Buffalo" Jones, were sold to the state by Uncle Jimmie Owens after their "cattalo" experiment proved unsuccessful. When the number of buffalo was judged excessive for their Forest Service grazing lands in the mid- 1940s, the Arizona Game and Fish Department moved some of them to the agency's newly acquired Raymond Ranch (now called Raymond Wildlife Area). Other buffalo were moved to Fort Huachuca, which the Department acquired after World War II. The tenure of these latter animals was short, however, as they had to be disposed of when the Fort was reactivated in the 1950s. Some were sold and sent to the state of Chihuahua, Mexico, and the remainder were removed through a public hunt.
The herds at House Rock and Raymond Ranch wildlife areas remained, however, and the Department set out to manage these herds on a sustained basis. A economic profit proved elusive, however, as it was impossible to sustain sufficient breeding stock without damaging the range. Moreover, the shooting of buffalo being driven out of a corral, while making economic sense, became increasingly difficult to justify from a sociological perspective. As a result, both herds were drastically reduced in the early 1970s by hunters who had to take their animals in the field. The management of the buffalo herds is now more in line with the carrying capacity of their respective ranges, with between 45 and 65 buffalo being harvested each year. A special permit has always been required for the taking of this species.
Breeding occurs from mid-July to early September. Males are polygamous, but they do not form harems. During the rut, males may lose up 300 pounds. Most breeding is done by mature males five to eight years old. Gestation ranges from 270 to 285 days. Calves are born in the spring from late April through May. Twinning has not been documented. Nursing activity occurs primarily during daylight hours and each nursing bout can last up to 20 minutes.
Breeding Period: Mid-July to early September
Young Appear: Late April-May
Average Number of Young: 1
Distribution: Found on Game and Fish properties- Raymond Ranch and House Rock wildlife areas
Habitat: Grasslands of northern Arizona
Food Preference: Grasses and forbs
Live Weight: M-1,400-2,500lbs.; F-750-1,600lbs.
Predators: Mountain Lions attack calves; practically none for the adults

Sign up for Office 365
Learn more about Office 365
I can't find MX records, can anyone help me. Trying to keep my web site with existing host, but e-mails I would like to go through Office 365
thanks, Jatz
Thanks for the feedback.

Have you attempted contact the support for your domain hosting to determine how to set your MX records?
Did you sign up for Office 365 Small Business or Enterprise? The way you configure domains for these types of accounts is different.
With Small Business, you would switch your name server records to point to Office 365 hosted name servers. We will then host DNS records for your domain. To configure it so that your website is hosted elsewhere please refer to: community.office365.com/.../host-your-website-with-another-provider.aspx
If you have an Enterprise account, once you've verified the domain, go in to the domain manager area (Admin >> Domains), click the domain name, and then toggle over to the 'DNS settings' tab. This page lists the various DNS records associated with Exchange and Lync.
- Mike
as far I understand, you are trying to configure your internet domain for receiving email on Office 365
you can try this blog.hametbenoit.info/.../Post.aspx
I tried the steps outlined in this article, but they didn't work.
When I tried to enter a new address (A) and typed in the host name as xxxx.hostdomainname.com (where xxxx is the name of the specific DNS server), I received an error: "The domain name that you typed is not valid. Domain names must have at least 4 characters, and can include only letters, numbers, and hyphens."
The problem is that the domain name IS valid and does only include letters, numbers and hyphens. This is what is so CRAZY about MS not providing support (even paid support) for the small business plan! Small businesses probably need support MORE than the enterprises and then if there is a REAL problem with the MS product, there is no one to address it.
It seems you are not understanding what you have to do
So, let's say your domain is MYDOMAIN.COM
On Office 365, go to the Admin portal, Management\Domains and click to add the MYDOMAIN.COM
The wizard will check if the domain exist and will return who is the registar
then it will provide your CNAME record to create (ms1234556) which point to Office 365
on your MYDOMAIN.COM management tool (website or whatever), create the CNAME (Alias) ms1234556 with a destination to Office 365
Once the wizard is able to confirm you're the domain owner (Domain verification step) you will be able to finalize the wizard
At the end of this wizard you will have DNS details for use with Office 365
So connect to your MYDOMAIN.COM management tool and add an MX record pointing to Office 365 as shown by the wizard
I don't think you understand your own support documentation. This document that was linked to does not say what you just said.
Your documentation says to enter the Office 365 DNS servers onto our domain and then go in to the Office 365 DNS management console and enter DNS records for the website.
Quite, I tend to agree with you.
I want to use Office 365 to host my e-mail only; I want to keep my other servers as they are.
In my case I do not want to delegate the domain to Microsoft, I want to continue to use my current DNS provider.
So, I want to know what I should put in my MX records.
I also want to know if I have to delegate my domain in order to send and receive e-mail using my domain and not the onmicrosoft.com domain.
Try this....
Admin > Domains > [Click on your domain] > DNS Manager
On this page you should see the DNS entries required for mail, Lync, etc.
Hope this helps,
Yea, it works to a point. However;
1) It will work for vanity.onmicrosoft.com, but it may not work for vanity.com. MS does not publish the mail settings for P1 plan users unless you delegate the domain.
2) These settings may change dynamically, so you need to constantly check the DNS manager.
3) It does not allow more than 1 MX record. In the real world you will have a secondary (and beyond) mail server with approriate MX record. eg.
10 mailserver.vanity,com
20 server2.vanity.com
25 box99.mypartner.com
The more I use the P1 paln the more I find that MS either have no clue how small bussinesses work (or don't care) OR they want to push small businesses to the more expensive E? plans. £ 2.5 / $ 3.0 for the P1 -> E1 'upgrade' per month may not sound much, but muliply this by the # accounts the total $ profit is substantial.
Yes, it does work with your vanity domain. We do publish the mail settings for the P1 plan, however getting to it is a bit of a workaround at this point. The details are documented here community.office365.com/.../host-your-website-with-another-provider.aspx. In a nutshell, once your domains has been verified you can view the DNS records for each of the Office 365 hosted services (Exchange, Lync, etc.). Creating these records with your current DNS hosting provider will properly enable these services to work on your domain.
There is no need to specify multiple MX records for Exchange Online. Specifying the single MX is all you need. Exchange Online load balanced such that you do not need to specify the addresses of backup mail servers in case the primary goes down.
Lastly, you do not need to continually check the DNS manager page for updated MX record values. The address of the MX record will rarely, if ever, change. The IP address that it points to may very well change on a regular basis, but that's how Internet addressing works. The canonical name (what we show in the DNS manager) stays the same, but the IP address will change based on load balancing etc.
I'm trying to understand exactly the issue you're having. Allow me to walk through the scenario of how it should work and you can point me to where you're having issues.
Let's say the domain you are adding is contoso.com. You'll add and verify it in Office 365. Once this step is complete, DNS manager will be available for you to create custom DNS records for your domain. To maintain an existing website, I recommend create the custom A and/or CNAME records needed to route traffic to your website before you even update the name server addresses. You likely already have the info needed for these A/CNAME records but if not your webhosting provider can provide them for you. So, once your domain has been verified, launch DNS manager and click New >> A record. In the hostname field enter "@" and in the points to address field enter the IP address that your webhosting provider has given you. The hostname field is not where you would specify the IP address nor the full address of your website. The error you mention above seems to indicate that perhaps you have tried putting the IP address or the full address in to the hostname field.
Then click New >> CNAME and enter 'www' for the hostname. For the points to address enter the value your webhosting provider has given you.
Once this is done, you can then update the nameserver records at your domain registrars site to point to Office 365 hosted DNS servers.
This doc community.office365.com/.../host-your-website-with-another-provider.aspx has more detail. If you are still having trouble please let me know.
Sorry to join this conversation late. My Office 365 trial is about to expire, so I have been in the process of signing up for the Small Business Plan. Based on what I can understand of the Microsoft MO for this, I have come to the conclusion that I will probably go to another exchange host instead.
I can't speak for everyone else, but I can tell you what my concern is with the current setup options. I realize that Microsoft is willing to let me host my website elsewhere while keeping other services at MS. The issue is the way this is handled.
As you certainly know, a few years ago there were web registrars and web hosts. The MS plan makes sense in that world. Today, like most people, my registrar is also my host. What MS is asking me to do is set up a circular path so that web requests go from my registrar, to Microsoft, then back to my registrar.
This might not raise an eyebrow if it weren't the opposite of the way it is handled by every other exchange host I have found. I keep asking myself, "Why does MS insist on controlling the DNS records?" No one has yet offered a technical reason that I have seen, leaving me with only cynical assumptions. I am not a Microsoft-hater, but I also see no reason to give Microsoft more control than technically necessary.
I realize I will be giving up other features if I go elsewhere for exchange hosting. I will also pay a couple dollars more each month. In spite of these factors, I will sleep better elsewhere unless someone can give me a convincing technical reason for this requirement.
Hi Don,
Thanks for the post. I hear your concerns and appreciate your feedback. The decision to design our domain redelegation process they way we did was not purely for technical reasons. Managing domains and DNS is a complicated task. Many people, even technical folks, have a difficult time with it. Rather than having to create multiple DNS records to enable each of the Office 365 services, we wanted to make it easier for Small Business users by only having to update their name server records. Also, as new services are rolled out their associated DNS records would automatically be created... again making it easier for the SMB.
I still believe this satisfies the needs for the great majority of SMBs who will use Office 365, but I am also aware that there are several SMBs like yourself which have more complex DNS requirements. We are concidering changes in this area for a future release. In the meantime we have also documented a workaround which will get you what you are looking for (even though it only mentions .no and .dk domains).
Thanks again for the feedback. It's very much appreciated.

Thanks for your response. I probably should have added a response of my own later yesterday, as I ultimately decided to stay with Office 365 and go through with the DNS changes as prescribed. After digging through more of the forum I found a couple more posts (of yours) that referred to some of the other DNS issues included with the full Office 365 suite. This one, in particular, made sense to me:
Post replied on 2011-Apr-26 11:14 AM
It's not a matter of simply changing the MX record. There are three DNS records associated with Exchange Online... one is the MX for mail routing. Another is an SPF for safe sender. And the third is a CNAME for autoconfigure. Add to that the two SRV records for Lync Online and it becomes more difficult to setup your domain than simply updating your NS records. This solution will work for a large number of our customers.
Anyway, thanks for your time in the support forum. I feel much better about this change knowing it is so easy to get reasoned answers!
I should have mentioned, that response was under the heading "Migrate MX records only to Office 365."
