As reported today by WMUR (questionable why they would even report this poll), New England College conducted a telephone poll regarding Medicaid Expansion in New Hampshire recently. If you look at the polling questions, they aren't exactly wording the questions in a way that truly describes Obamacare's Medicaid Expansion. Because the wording of the questions weren't exactly honest, it shows bias as well.
Here is the first question:
Among the issues being debated at the state capital in Concord includes the expansion of health insurance for low‐income families through Medicaid. Do you think the state of New Hampshire should increase the eligibility for Medicaid to families with incomes up to $32,000 per year?
Of course, this question neglects to identify the Medicaid Expansion as being Obamacare. According to UNH polls, the majority of Granite Staters disapprove of Obamacare and always have. It also neglects to add that the majority of people who would be eligible already pay for their own health insurance and that they'd be turned into dependents of the government (aka taxpayers) whereas currently they are independent of the government. It would be truly interesting to see responses to both of these questions.
Another question from the poll:
The Governor and a bipartisan group of state senators are supporting a plan to extend private insurance to low‐income NH residents, without passing the costs of coverage on to businesses. The costs will be covered by federal funds. Up to 50,000 NH citizens will be able to access medical coverage through this plan, which will be debated in March.
Do you favor adoption of this bi‐partisan effort to extend medical insurance coverage to low income NH citizens without increasing the cost to NH businesses?
Again this question neglects to mention the people who already pay for their own private health insurance. It also pushes the false premise that New Hampshire citizens don't already have access to medical coverage – they do. The question also doesn't mention that the federal funds are only provided for three years and that no legislator has come up with a plan on how to pay for it when the federal funds begin to dry up. Of course, the question doesn't bother asking if people believe that once the federal funds dry up does anyone really think politicians will end the program as the bill calls for. What is also doesn't mention is that New Hampshire taxpayers are the people who are paying for this program (anyone who pays federal taxes). The cost of Obamacare's Medicaid Expansion is through federal funds paid for by federal income taxpayers.
The breakdown of registered voters isn't available in the survey that was posted. It neglects to include if the voters were randomly selected from across the state; the numbers of Democrats, Unenrolled and Republicans; the age ranges or even the gender ratios. This author has contacted Dr. Tafoya, Director of the Poll (of Reading, MA – apparently a progressive due to his Twitter handle @progressiveman) at New England College to get this information but as of publishing time there has been no response to these questions. When a response is received, this article will be updated.
This is another poll that serves no purpose because it doesn't ask the questions in a way the voters understand the true depth of the issue. Of course people want to help those less fortunate but this poll never explains that Granite Staters already spend $1.4 billion per year to indeed help those less fortunate through the existing Medicaid program. It appears Dr. Tafoya knew the poll would generate specific answers to his questions as asked – which shows bias. He didn't ask the right questions nor did he fully explain what Obamacare's Medicaid Expansion entails. If a pollster wants accurate results, they should be asking accurate questions.
UPDATE: Makeup of voters below after an inquiry. It still doesn't change the questions but at least they were polling voters from across the state.
#1 - Were voters selected randomly from across the state?
Yes. Our lists include registered voters from the whole state.
#2 - What is the makeup of the Registered voters - Democrats, Independents and Republicans?
Democrat 223 29%
Republican 217 28%
Unenrolled 319 41%
Another Party 5 1%
Unsure 10 1%
Total 774 100%
#3 - What are the age ranges of those surveyed?
We did not ask about age in this particular poll.
#4 - What are the female to male ratios?
53% women 47% men for the poll.

Hi there Keltic!
I left a message on your other picture (showing one) saying how much your lovely mare looks like me previous horse.. I know it sounds bonkers but they really are spookily 'twin'like! If you don't mind, I'd like to forward you a photo so that you can see. If you let me know where to email it I'll try and scan one of my old photos (well, I say old, he's still only 7yrs old now!) Also I see your mare's name is Katie - that's the name of the mare I purchased after selling my twin like cob! Spooky!
Sorry to rattle!

If only I had a dime for every time I've recommended someone adopt a pet and had them respond, "I don't want an old dog" or my personal favorite, "I don't want a dog with so many issues". It's hard not to immediately roll my eyes and sigh but I usually fight the impulse and try to rationally explain why older dogs are actually pretty great!
My husband and I have two dogs – both adopted. One was six months old when we adopted her from a rescue group (yes, rescue groups have young dogs too!) and the other was 3 years old. The 3 year old was so much more predictable! I knew when we adopted her what her personality was like, how big she was going to be, what kind of needs she had and what family would be best for her. We were able to adopt a dog that perfectly fit our lifestyle, wants and needs.
Our 6 month old adoption has proved to be a shocker! "On the small side" (50 lbs then) has turned into 130 lbs. Small side, yeah right. And her "calm nature" developed into a dog that calling her a spaz would be an understatement. We had no idea what we were getting with her and though we adore her and love her as a member of our family, it's taken a lot more work than when we adopted our established pet at 3 years old.
Older dogs are great for another reason – they make less messes! There is no potty training, no discussion of what a chew toy consists of, no nightly howling in the crate or 3 am bathroom breaks. There is just a laid back dog who isn't tempted to chew through the contents of your house and requires only a bit of adaptation to become a part of your family.
Rescue groups have a variety of animals. People give them up for countless reasons – for some people, a puppy is a decision that requires no more thought than where to eat dinner that night and they quickly find out that dogs are a bit more intensive. Other people move, "can't take their dog", don't want to go to training, don't have enough time, get a new job, experience a family change, like have a baby and countless other reasons. None of these reasons have anything to do with a dog or the issues they may have. They are all human issues. When you're looking at adding a pet to your family, consider adopting. Rescue groups spend lots of times with their furry orphans and can help you find the perfect match.

About Me
There I was, at the tender age of 44. Just your average barbecue-lovin', pie bakin' chowhound. I used to drag all my friends to Queens for Sichuan or Mexican food, and hosted fun and somewhat lavish dinner parties. But it turns out my pork, cheese and butter eating days were numbered, because …
I found out I had a 90% blocked artery.
Two stents later, the nutritionists were giving me my marching orders: broiled chicken breast and steamed broccoli was a typical dinner suggestion. Upon hearing this advice, I believe my exact words were:
No. Fucking. Way.
Admittedly, the new me – kept alive by little pieces of metal and a bunch of heart drugs – clearly had to find a new way of eating. However, I wasn't about to settle for anything less than hearty, spicy, exciting food. No sacrificing flavor, period.
So I found ways around the restrictions. I created apple pies made with heart-healthy oils instead of butter or lard. I made lasagna without all the fatty cheese. And no one could tell the difference.
Not surprisingly, my experience also affected the eating habits of everybody around me. When deciding what to make for dinner – or before biting into a pastry – they stopped to think.
My friend Tracy always asked herself, "What would Cathy eat?"
That was the inspiration for this blog. By providing delicious alternatives to the typical American diet full of processed foods and saturated fat, I hope to help people realize the connection between what they put in their mouths and their future well-being. In other words, to avoid my own fate. Which brings me to a question I often get:
"Has your diet cured your heart disease?"
Well… I have a high level of hereditary and dangerous lipoprotein(a), an abnormal protein that attaches to LDL cholesterol. And not much in the way of diet or drugs affects it. So despite my heart-healthy diet, I have had several more artery blockages since my initial procedure. But I have to believe that my improved diet has slowed the progression of the disease. And of course, diet can definitely have a preventive effect for most people.
Healthy eating is at the core of who I am now. Cooking nearly every day can be a challenge, especially with a full-time job as a creative director at an ad agency in New York. But even while I'm writing copy I'm thinking about the broccoli rabe and beans I'm going to make when I get home. And come the weekend, I do nothing but cook and take pictures at my country shack in the Hudson Valley. And yes, I still throw damn great dinner parties!
Contact me anytime at email@example.com
Disclosures and such:
I'm not a nutritionist. I have no formal training in that area. So while I think my approach to a heart-healthy is a pretty good one, it's certainly not perfect and by no means prescriptive. Please see your doctor or a nutritionist to get guidelines that are right for you.
People sometimes ask me if I get paid to endorse products or mention them in my posts. The answer is no – if I recommend a particular brand, it is simply because I believe it's a good one. You will not see "sponsored posts" on my blog – that goes against the grain for me. I might consider a giveaway of a product I love. I participate in the Amazon Affiliates program, which gives me a tiny cut of book sales made through my online store, "Cathy's Cookbook Shelf." And I do have advertising on the blog, through the Foodbuzz Network. The couple of bucks I earn from these things help offset (not even cover!) the cost of maintaining the blog.

Hooker Dylan Hartley will be available for England's June tour to South Africa after a disciplinary hearing suspended him for eight weeks
Hartley was cited for biting the finger of Ireland flanker Stephen Ferris during England's Six Nations victory over Ireland at Twickenham.
The Six Nations hearing upheld the citing and issued a ban that means the Northampton skipper will not be able to play until 14 May.
He could, however, return if Saints reach the Premiership final on 26 May and will be eligible to play in the first Test against the Springboks on June 9.
Hartley's offence was found to have contravened IRB Law 10.4 (m) "acts contrary to good sportsmanship".
Biting carries a low-end entry point of a 12-week suspension but having examined the evidence and listened to Hartley, his legal representative, Northampton director of rugby Jim Mallinder, England forwards coach Graham Rowntree and Ferris via a video link, the independent Six Nations committee decided that the offence merited a low entry point in the IRB's table of sanctions and allowed mitigation of four weeks.
There had been speculation the 39-times capped Hartley could be sidelined for a lot longer than two months, given his 26-week ban for gouging Wasps duo Jonny O'Connor and James Haskell in 2007.
However, it is understood that given the length of time that has passed since the gouging incidents, it was felt the four-week reduction was appropriate.
"I am disappointed by the result and I will wait for the written judgment as to how the panel came to their conclusion," said Hartley.
"I now have to put it behind me and focus on supporting Saints in training and off the field."
Rowntree added the England team were looking forward to Hartley being available for the tour to South Africa.
"It is unfortunate for Dylan and Northampton, especially as he was in good form during the Six Nations, and he has developed as a player and a leader," said Rowntree.

Splash into summer reading with University Press of Kentucky's pool of new releases, books that demand a place on the beach (be neat, please) and then in your library.
Or your kindle.
For history and military buffs, UPK offers two new titles highlighting military leaders that will take readers through tales of both forgotten courage and famed bravery. Kentucky Marine: Major General Logan Feland and the Making of the Modern USMC, and Alvin York: A New Biography of the Hero of the Argonne, explore the impact of two men during the wars and battles of the 20th century.
Kentucky Marine, written by David Bettez, illuminates the major role of Hopkinsville native Major General Logan Feland in the development of the modern U.S. Marine Corps. Feland's career spanned the Spanish-American War, World War I and the Nicaraguan revolution, leading him to become one of the USMC's most highly ranked and regarded officers during a time of expansion as a global power for the U.S.
In Alvin York, Douglas V. Mastriano separates fact from myth in the story of a soldier credited with capture of 132 German soldiers in 1918, a deed for which he was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. Mastriano meticulously examines York's youth in the hills of east Tennessee, his service in the Great War, and his return to a quiet civilian life dedicated to charity.
If you're a nature lover or looking to enhance your garden for the summer, you may be inspired by author Patricia Dalton Haragan's guide that highlights the beauty and grandeur of the parks in Louisville, Ky., designed by the "father of American landscape architecture" Frederick Law Olmsted. The Olmsted Parks of Louisville features photographs, maps, and ecological and historical details of the Cherokee, Seneca, Iroquois, Shawnee, and Chickasaw Parks.
More interested in American cinema or an inside look into old Hollywood? If so, UPK has two titles perfect for a week at the beach. Hitchcock's Partner in Suspense: The Life of Screenwriter Charles Bennett and Pola Negri: Hollywood's First Femme Fatale transports readers back to the Golden Age of Hollywood and chronicles the lives of two figures that would impact film forever.
Hitchcock's Partner in Suspense uncovers the life of screenwriter, World War I hero, Shakespearian actor and allied spy during World War II, Charles Bennett, best remembered for his collaborations with director Sir Alfred Hitchcock. The memoir discusses how the two created such famous film motifs as the "wrong man accused" device and the MacGuffin. Taking the readers behind the scenes, Bennett's own thoughts on Hitchcock's work, sense of humor and personal life are captured in the work brought to completion by his son editor John Charles Bennett.
In Pola Negri, Mariusz Kotowski brings to life the dramatic story of one of Hollywood's earliest divas. Pola Negri, after rising from an impoverished childhood in Warsaw, Poland, rose to fame in Hollywood starring in more than 60 films and defined the image of the cinematic femme fatale, including The Spanish Dancer and Hi Diddle Diddle. Illuminating Negri's personal life, detailing her love life and transitions from Europe to the U.S. during World War II, Pola Negri is sure to resonate with film, history and romance enthusiasts.
For those looking to improve their skills in the kitchen for summer picnics and celebrations, UPK offers three new books that will suit your taste. For inspiration and background, Duncan Hines: How a Traveling Salesman Became the Most Trusted Name in Food, explores the life and legacy of a native Kentuckian, savvy businessman, American icon and culinary pioneer. Readers can learn how to serve up Hines' favorite savory dishes in his first two cookbooks, Adventures in Good Cooking and The Dessert Book, enhanced by UPK featuring new introductions by Hines biographer Louis Hatchett.
In "Duncan Hines," author Louis Hatchett delves into the story of one man's humble beginnings in Bowling Green, Ky., to his name becoming a grocery shelf favorite. Hines began as a traveling salesman transforming into a restaurant critic as he discovered restaurants and dishes and offered recipes and recommendations to America in Adventures in Good Eating and following publications. Success of his work led to the making of cake mixes, baked goods and bread products that we still enjoy today.
Adventures in Good Cooking was Hines' first cookbook serving up a satisfying slice of classic recipes from top chefs and home cooks alike.Enriched by UPK for the 20th century, the book includes a valuable guide to the art of carving. Following his first cookbook, Hines published The Dessert Book. With recipes from fried apple pie to praline fudge frosting, The Dessert Book inspired the recipes for the earliest boxed cake mixes and baked goods that carried the Duncan Hines name. From the kitchen of one of the nation's most trusted names in food, all three titles will teach and inspire a new generation of cooks, perfect for those backyard barbeques or Fourth of July celebrations.

Spoilers for episode 5 of "Hell's Kitchen" reveal that a wedding brunch will make the lives of the chefs difficult. On April 10, the official Facebook page of the show shared a video of Gordon Ramsay complaining about greasy food for the bride and groom. The 16 remaining chefs must create a perfect brunch for the wedding party, but they continue to disappoint Ramsay.
A brave couple decides to take the risk of having "Hell's Kitchen" prepare its wedding brunch, and Gordon Ramsay is pushing the 16 chefs to their limit to test their skills. During the meal preparation, one of the chefs on the men's blue team fails to properly heat up the pan before placing a sandwich inside of it. Chef Ramsay points out the sandwich is soaking up the oil from the pan instead of becoming crispy, and he would prefer the bride and groom not worry about their cholesterol.
The women's team will also struggle with the cooking during the next episode as the chef complains about the appearance of their plates. In the YouTube video for the show, Ramsay does not like how they have added spices to the plates. The wedding brunch puts extra pressure on all the contestants and makes them work harder to complete the service.
In the previous episode, Mike Aresta was sent home, and the men's team did not seem upset over the loss of the New Jersey chef. Ramsay also tried to show both teams how much money they lost by not being able to finish the services. He punished them by forcing the losing team to roll thousands of pennies and experience the physical loss of money. The women's team seems to be improving while the men's team is still having issues and is in danger of losing more members in upcoming episodes.

I've already installed the dev version of Chrome, because it's stated somewhere that it's needed, but I can't get it to work. Then, I tried searching for a Chrome Greasemonkey addon, just to see that it was no further developed on, because Chrome has built-in support.
Could someboy tell me what I have to do in order to get user scripts working on Chrome v21?

Comprehensive Epilepsy Program
Epilepsy is defined as unprovoked recurrent seizures resulting from abnormal brain electrical activity. If not fully controlled, seizures can have a negative impact on a person's health and well-being. Epilepsy is the 4th most common neurological condition in the United States. Approximately 1 in 26 Americans will develop it at some point in their lifetime.
Seton Brain & Spine Institute's Comprehensive Epilepsy Program is the only Level 4 Epilepsy Center in Central Texas providing comprehensive epilepsy care for adult patients with epilepsy. Our designation as a Level 4 Epilepsy Center is based upon guidelines recommended by the National Association of Epilepsy Centers.
Our epilepsy program, which serves the Greater Austin area, is comprised of experts in epilepsy care including neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists, neuropsychologists, psychiatrists, and epileptologists (neurologists who specialize in epilepsy). We work as a team providing a full spectrum of services including advanced diagnostic tests as well as medical and surgical treatment options. We are also able to address the psychosocial and neurocognitive needs of epileptic patients. Our support staff includes dedicated epilepsy coordinators, specialty-trained nurses, and neurodiagnostic technologists. We work together to produce the best patient outcome possible.
When you or a loved one is facing difficult decisions as to how to best treat epilepsy, a visit to Seton Brain & Spine Institute may be appropriate. Our team works to create a complete treatment plan to help patients reclaim their lives by identifying the source of the seizure. Our Epilepsy Monitoring Unit (EMU) at University Medical Center Brackenridge in Austin employs state-of-the-art EEG monitoring equipment for continuous video EEG study. The Seton Brain & Spine Institute is at the forefront of epilepsy research, diagnostics, and solutions. We are dedicated to providing our patients with freedom from seizures and helping them experience the confidence and happiness that a seizure-free life can offer.
In order to provide patients with the most comprehensive epilepsy treatment through epilepsy medication, epilepsy surgery, and with an epilepsy diet, Seton Brain & Spine Institute proudly produces some of the latest epilepsy research right here in Austin.

One of the most common ways to help family and friends, aside from unconditional love and support, is by understanding how to handle a loved one's seizures. That includes what to do and how to react during one.
Epilepsy diets, combined with other treatments, are a common treatment and can be an effective way to manage epilepsy. The ketogenic diet is one of the most popular choices. This high fat, low-carb diet has been shown to reduce seizures in epileptic patients who are more resistant to treatment.

Dvd Release Date: 2000-06-20
Genre: Drama,
Rating: R
Duration: 2hrs 40min
William Schwenck Gilbert is the librettist, writing the words. Arthur Sullivan is the composer, writing the music. Gilbert is the very model of a 19th-century British gentleman, an overly proper married man certain that he knows best. For nearly a decade, Gilbert and Sullivan's collaborations have delighted the English people. Their popular comic operas have recouped handsomely for the successful Savoy Theatre... But, in 1884, as a London heat wave cuts into the theater trade, their latest work, "Princess Ida," receives lukewarm press. Sullivan rejects Gilbert's next idea as "topsy-turvy" and unbelievable, and although Gilbert tries to accommodate him, they cannot agree. Mired at a creative impasse, Gilbert and Sullivan can barely converse. Then, Gilbert's wife, Lucy "Kitty" Gilbert, drags him along to a Japanese exhibition--exposure to the very different culture begins inspiration to embark on the production of "The Mikado."

One of my customers from last year during the Scrambler onslaught of motor work had some residual issues with irregular idling speeds, which were noticed after the rebuild. What was noticed was some excessive radial/lateral movement in the points cam (around .006-007") and slack in the camshaft sprocket advancer weights/springs. The point cam sideplay issue wasn't quite as urgent as it normally would have been because we had installed an electronic ignition system on the bike. If the points system had been installed the point gap would have been varying that amount causing serious ignition timing problems which then translate to vacuum signal irregularities at the carburetor metering circuits.
Slop in the cam sprockets have been an ongoing issue due to the design of the flat tang inserted into a flat plate that is attached to the advancer weight system. There is always a bit of play in the tang/plate interface, then the advancer weights flail around against tiny return springs which are just a bit short of pulling the weights back fully into the retarded position.
A more serious condition exists when the sprocket assemblies have been spun around for about 15, 000 miles and begin to loosen up their rivets. When the assembly loosens up, the center camchain sprocket starts to cycle back and forth against the worn rivets, as the camshaft lobes push up against valve spring pressure and skid down the back side of the lobes. As the parts loosen up, there is an audible chattering noise which sets up and the ignition timing becomes unstable when viewed with a dynamic automotive timing light. When this occurs, you must remove the sprocket assembly and either replace it or tack weld the pieces together to prevent oscillation cycles.
My least favorite bike to work on would normally be the CL72-77 Scramblers, due to the placement of the exhaust system, covering up the left side cover, air filter/brackets, which must be removed to extract the carburetor for service work. However, the one saving grace for the Scrambler models is that the engine top cover can be removed with the engine still in the chassis.
Considering that my customer had to rent a trailer and drive the bike down from LA, I offered to do a "while you wait" camshaft service and see if that would remedy the problem. The bike arrived a little after 10AM on a Thursday and I dove right into it, stripping off the seat, fuel tank, top engine mount bracket and removing the spark plugs. The one thing you don't want to have happen is for the cylinder base gasket to be disturbed when you are turning the motor over to work on the camshafts. After the top cover is removed, a couple of small ½" drive sockets were slipped over the ends of a couple of exposed cylinder studs and secured with acorn nuts. This clamps the whole cylinder head/cylinder package firmly to the engine cases, so no vertical movement occurs.
The next step is to loosen all of the valve adjuster screws, allowing the rocker arms to release pressure on the camshaft lobes in most positions. Normally, a "hook wrench" can be used to loosen the right side camshaft locking nut, but there isn't enough room for the tool, so a dulled chisel/punch must be used with care to knock the nut loose and release the right side camshaft. With a long thin punch I was able to drive the right side camshaft out, free of the spline connection with the camshaft sprocket assembly. I rotated the engine around so that the master link came to the top and then packed rags around the camshaft sprocket while removing the link. I thread in foot long pieces of 18 ga. electrical wire with a knot tied in one end to secure the ends of the camchain and lower them down, out of the way of the camshaft sprocket.
The left side cylinder head cover hides the end of the camshaft retainer bolt, which expands the end of the left camshaft into the OD of the camshaft sprocket, securing it in place. The 10mm nut must be loosened to the end of the bolt threads, then using a hammer, a firm tap on the end of the bolt/nut will dislodge the through bolt from the inside of the camshaft sprocket splines. The left side camshaft can then be driven out carefully with the long punch, located against the flank of the cam lobes. Once the camshaft is clear of the sprocket splines the sprocket assembly can be wiggled out of the space in the head and available for repairs or replacement.
There were a number of used cam sprockets in my box of spares and trial fitting the points cams into various camshafts with matching splines, a perfect match was finally obtained. Particular attention is paid to the small spark advancer return springs. They can be gently bent on the ends to tighten up their tension on the weights so that they return fully to the retarded position with no loose slack in the spring ends. When the springs are set for a clean, firm snap return, then the spark timing will be much more accurate at idle. When there is slack in the weight system, the weights begin to swing out as soon as the engine is fired up and running. This will move the spark timing from the normal five degree before top dead center to ten degrees or more with the engine idling. This five-plus degree swing in spark timing will cause the engine speeds to rise immediately. The carburetor slides are barely lifted at idle speeds when the OEM settings are all in place. When engine speed is increased due to spark timing advance instead of carburetor slide lifting, the fuel metering system's vacuum signals become altered drawing in more fuel that is necessary to keep the engine running. When that happens, the idle mixture air screws must be backed out to give more air to maintain air/fuel ratios that are normal at those speeds. The more the spark timing advances, the more the whole fuel ratio spectrum is affected, causing high idle speeds and irregular idle mixtures that often cause some misfiring at low speeds.
When spark timing is steady at idle speeds, correct idle mixture screw settings can be used and engine performance is even and steady. This was the initial goal of the camshaft/spark advancer replacement on this particular machine. Because of rising rebuild costs on this engine, the cylinder head was left pretty much unattended to, once the valves were checked for leaks using some carb spray down the ports when the valves were closed. Once the engine was installed and fired up, the idling issues became apparent and the initial diagnosis of point cam/cam sprocket slack was made. The owner understood the situation and nursed the bike through about 630 miles of break-in driving, but felt somewhat embarrassed when pulling up at a stop and having the blaring Scrambler pipes blasting out their tunes at over two thousand rpms. Sometimes, you can lug the engine down in gear at idle and the lowered rpms will cause the spark weights to come back into idle mode, but it is only a band-aid fix and doesn't always work anyway.
Once the camshaft parts were all selected and repaired, reassembly was just the reverse of the disassembly with the sprocket wedged back into place and the left camshaft driven inwards to engage the master splines of the camshaft/sprocket interface. Once the sprocket was stabilized on the left, the right cam was driven into place noting the position of the points cam index mark as the tang of the advance shaft engaged the camshaft sprocket advancer drive plate slot. The camshafts and bearings must be driven inwards sufficiently to allow the edges of the cylinder head end covers to seat in, butted against the bearing edges. If the covers are not allowed to seat properly, the gaskets won't seal and you get an immediate oil leak.
Once the end covers are initially set in with screws, the camshaft locking nut must be tightened to squeeze the sprocket ends against the right side camshaft splines. Once that part is secured, the left side cover must be removed again to allow the through bolt to be tightened up drawing the ends of the camshaft into the camshaft sprocket spines. It is an interesting design: squeeze down on one end and expand the opposite end into the spline junctions. Once secured, it definitely locks the camshafts and sprocket assembly into one cohesive unit for spinning upwards of five thousand rpms. You won't find this procedure listed or recommended in the Honda Shop Manual books, but it is possible and it does work!
With the cams in place, electronic ignition rotor re-attached and the cylinder head top cover nuts torqued down to 15 ft.lbs. The rest of the bike was assembled, except for the seat, so access to the battery was available to connect the timing light. The bike fired back up on the second kick, but was a bit unstable and then stalled after a small backfire. There is a lot of variability in the ignition components and some backing plate position adjustments brought the ignition timing back to normal. Full advance was just at the first of the two (II) advancer marks, which is perfect for today's fuels. Revving the engine a few times as it warmed up gave evidence of continued high idling symptoms, however. There was more than one problem, apparently! Lifting the back of the fuel tank a few inches allowed access to the throttle cables atop each carburetor body. Pulling up on one at a time showed that the right side carb slide was sticking in the carb body bore just a bit. I was SO HAPPY that it was the right side carburetor instead of the left one! With the side cover removed, a couple of air filter mounting bolts were taken off and the whole filter and tube removed from the carburetor inlet. Disconnecting the choke link and removing the two retainer nuts allowed removal of the carburetor in just a few minutes.
Placing the bare slide down the carburetor body and pushing it up and down a few times with your fingers/thumb will leave a wear mark in the soft carburetor body bore. I have used either some fine emery cloth or often just lightly scraped off the high spots with a Swiss Army knife blade. After working with it for a few minutes, it was moving more smoothly, but still hanging up a little bit. Searching the parts bins, a "late style" alloy carburetor slide was found and it dropped right down the bore without any signs of sticking whatsoever. The original slides are chromed brass and tend to hold heat more than the light alloy slides, which seem to be slightly smaller in OD perhaps and more friendly to the distorted carburetor body bores, which have gone through forty or fifty years of heat cycles, fuel exposure and over-tightening of the flanges.
This was the final fix for this particular repair. Dead accurate ignition timing coupled with free-moving carburetor slides yielded an engine that was running smoothly at idle and returning to idle from high rpm throttle blips easily and quickly. That brought big smiles on both of our faces, finally. The owner quickly loaded back up for his three hour return trip to the LA basin without even riding the bike again. An email follow-up, the following day, confirmed his satisfaction at the repairs made and his intention to ride the bike more often, now that it was tamed and behaving properly at stop signs and signal lights. The CL77 gets plenty of attention from other drivers, just as they are because of their styling and the sounds emanating from those long straight pipes. When heard at an even, loping idle the impact is even more compelling for observers and enthusiasts. It's all part of the great experience of owning AND riding your vintage Honda motorcycle. Go ride yours today!
Sorry for the lack of photos for this story, but I was on a tight timeline that didn't allow for photo-opts. Total repair time was about 3 hours.

So, I want to watch this movie, I watched it with my friends but it was a really good movie. It's about a girl, who lives with her father. Her father I think repairs cars. At the beginning of the movie she switches schools, she falls in love with this boy and turns from a tomboy into a sassy and popular girl. Oh yeah, and in the beginning she is popular although she doesn't want to be.
If you know the name please tell me.

The Top Corporate Team Building Activities New York Companies Love
When choosing a team building activity in New York you have many factors to consider: budget, time, location, number of employees etc. Don't get caught up in these logistics. The most important thing when planning a corporate team building activity is to choose one that will be successful. How will you know which events will be most successful? We have found that the most successful team building experiences are the ones that the employees enjoy. To figure out which activities employees will love: look to past team building experiences in the company, pull an idea from our suggestions, or contact us for a consultation, cityHUNT LOVES to help create corporate team building events.
Suggestions for team building activities in New York
Make sure it is not all at the office
Team building activities that take place all in the office may seem like additional work to the employees. Even though what they may be doing is outside of their normal scope of responsibilities because of the environment they are in they may still associate on a conscious or subconscious level, anything that occurs in the office with work. Hold the orientation for the activity at your office if you must, then spring everyone and head off for your adventure. Your employees will thank you.
Take advantage of the city
If you are going to have a corporate team building activity in New York, why not take advantage of being in New York City? You could have your employees learn the secrets of Grand Central, enjoy the nature of Central Park, or learn about other areas of the city that they are not familiar with. Indulge the natural curiosity in us all and set your employees up with the opportunity to learn more about the city they work in.
Get moving
Exercise causes the body to release mood boosting hormones. If you want your team to get a mood boost, be sure toinclude some form of light exercise into your activity.
Create or learn something
One sure fire way to get your team having a great experience together is to have them engage in creating something or learning a skill. Favorite activities we like to recommend are wine tasting, DIY crafts, and cooking classes.
Scavenger hunts
The most successful team building events will be ones that combine a few of the elements for team building activities that we have listed above. In doing so you will provide more opportunities for your employees to take something positive away from the event. cityHUNT has found the best way to combine, getting people out of the office, taking advantage of the city and getting people moving is to do a team building scavenger hunt. These events take place outside of the office, require walking, and lead team members to explore the city. It's a three for one deal in team building!
Remember, happy employee = happy company, happy company = happy employees. You should strive to make your team building activity in New York, a positive and fun learning experience for your employees. As always if you do not have the resources to devote to planning a proper team building activity, cityHUNT has your back! We will help you plan a custom scavenger hunt team building experience that will leave your team no choice but to be happy with the experience.
We would like to hear about team building experiences you have had in NYC that you thought we great. Please comment and tell us about them.

Picture Of The Day - 08 JUN 2010 "Sandman"
I wasn't sure what would make the PoD today. Then the 1600 hour rolled around, and with it came 14 pallets of sandbags. Once again, the 909th Wolfpack attacked. Yesterday was all about patients... this afternoon was all about moving sand. We stacked sandbags along the new fence line that separates the FST from the FOB riff-raff. If we keep this up, we may accidentally make our own camp inside the FOB. Yes.... Camp Wolfpack has a nice ring to it. I will send that up the chain of command.

FEMEN staged a topless counter-protest of an anti-gay marriage march in Paris, where they were attacked by Catholic activists who the "nuns" sprayed with powdered "sperm" while chanting slogans such as "In Gay We Trust."
Besides the opponents of the bill, a dozen topless activists from the Ukrainian-based women's movement Femen had shown up to stage a counter-protest dressed as nuns and chanting "humourous" slogans, said French feminist writer and columnist Caroline Fourest. "When they moved toward the demonstrators, some of (the protesters) ran after them, raging," Fourest said in a phone call with AFP from a police wagon, where the women had been taken for their own safety. She claimed the women were hit by their pursuers, who also lashed out at journalists filming the scene.The above-linked story notes that today's anti-gay march was attended by senior members of France's far-right nationalist movement. Via Andrew Belonsky, below are clips from today's fracas.
Several photographers were roughed up, an AFP photographer said. The local police station said officers had made five arrests. President Francois Hollande's government and its allies sharply criticised the aggression. French Socialist party first secretary Harlem Desir denounced it as "stupid", and government spokeswoman Najat Vallaud-Belkacem said authorities would take a zero-tolerance stance on violence. "There is no place for the extreme right's acts of aggression in our country," Vallaud-Belkacem said. "The government will show no tolerance for this violence. Family Minister Dominique Bertinotti said violence was "intolerable" and went against French values. "We cannot tolerate violence, homophobic sentiments, they are punishable under the law," the minister said on Europe 1 radio.
UPDATE: The first clip has been removed from YouTube for nudity.

On Tuesday, the George W. Bush Presidential Center announced two new exhibits that visitors will be able to see in 2014 and one is set to include some original paintings done by the former president himself.
The exhibit, which will open in early April, is called The Art of Leadership: A President's Personal Diplomacy and will "explore the relationships that President George W. Bush forged with world leaders to shape international policy and advance American interests abroad."
In addition to more than two dozen paintings never before seen by the public, the exhibit will also display artifacts, photos, and "personal reflections" involving the international relationships fostered during Bush's presidency.
Bush, 67, revealed his painting hobby last spring and has said he was inspired to take it up after reading the Winston Churchill essay Painting as a Pastime. Churchill himself became an avid painter in his forties and is said to have created over 500 pictures.
Dallas artist Gail Norfleet and Cumming, Ga. artist Bonnie Flood have both served as painting instructors for the former president, leading to a pastime that he says "changed [his] life in an unbelievably positive way."
In addition to using animals and landscapes as subjects, Bush has also been known to paint portraits. Back in November, he appeared on The Tonight Show and present Jay Leno with a portrait of the host he had completed.
The George W. Bush Presidential Center is located on the campus of Southern Methodist University in Dallas.

Do's and Don'ts of Getting Your Ex Boyfriend Back
The thing that you don't want to do when you are trying to get back with your ex boyfriend is go in and try to make his new girlfriend jealous. He will see this as you trying to start problems in his relationship and will do everything he can to keep you away.
What you want to do is send him a private message that his girlfriend is not going to find out about. You can do this on Facebook, email, or even through text message if you can still contact him through any of these methods. The best way to communicate with him is through text if you still have his phone number.
Texting is very powerful because he instantly gets the message you are sending and you will be able to get inside his head faster than any of the other methods combined. Text messages are more intimate than Facebook and email combined, because he thinks about texts differently than he thinks about his social network or his email account that is always full of spam emails.
Don't believe me?
Watch the video on textexbf.com and see for yourself how powerful texting your ex boyfriend back really is.
Once you have decided that you are going to send your ex boyfriend a text message to get him back, you have to figure out what to say in the text message.

Sending the right message however, will make him feel intrigued and he will be interested in what you have to say and what your intentions are. He will likely continue to text you back and forth every chance he gets. If you send the right text messages he will even start looking for reasons to break up with his girlfriend so he can be back with you.

Government Finds Some Old Smallpox Lying Around
No big deal, just one of the deadliest diseases in the history of man.
You know how it is, when you're cleaning out a dusty closet ahead of a move and come across one of the deadliest diseases in the history of man — no big deal. "U.S. government officials say workers cleaning a storage room at a research center made a startling discovery last week — decades-old vials of smallpox forgotten in a cardboard box," the AP reports. The freeze-dried and thankfully sealed virus, apparently left over from the 1950s, was "immediately secured" and flown from the National Institutes of Health in Maryland to a Center for Disease Control lab in Atlanta, where it will be tested to see if it's still alive and ultimately destroyed in about two weeks. Plenty of time for it to mutate and spread or get lifted by terrorists, like in some '90s action film.
