The number of people relying on food banks to survive has tripled over the last year, according to new figures.
The Trussell Trust, which runs 400 food banks across the UK, said it handed out supplies to more than 350,000 people between April and September this year.
The BBC's Ed Thomas made a visit to a food bank in Manchester.

Have you ever noticed that people carry weight in different parts of their bodies? Some carry it around their hips, resembling the shape of a pear, while others carry it around the middle, looking more like an apple. For quite a few years, having the shape of an apple has proven to be more of a health risk than a pear, but researchers have been unclear as to why people carry weight in different areas. But new research from the University of Edinburgh is helping to shed light on why humans don't all carry weight in the same areas — and how the new knowledge can be used to help fight obesity.
Scientists pinpointed a protein known as 11BetaHSD1 that seems to indicate body shape. According to the research that was published in the journal Diabetes, apple-shapes tend to have higher levels of the protein than pear-shapes do. The protein is known to raise levels of hormones that are linked to obesity and is associated with an over-reaction in the immune system that results in unnecessary inflammation that causes damage to healthy cells.
Raphael Calzadilla is a certified trainer with the American Council on Exercise (ACE) and has been a personal trainer for almost 20 years. He is also a natural competitive bodybuilder, 2001 Mr. Connecticut, and winner of the prestigious WNBF (World Natural Bodybuilding Federation) Pro Card, earning him status as a drug-free professional bodybuilder. You can learn more about Raphael at his website www.fitbyraphael.com.
Four years ago I was asked to speak at a fitness and nutrition seminar. With the audience being primarily women, I was excited to once and for all clear up the misconceptions about cellulite. Finally, it was my chance to talk about the infamous cottage cheese-look that makes women cringe in disgust.
I enthusiastically told my wife, Pam, and shared some of my material. She was excited about the subject matter and was listening intently. I told her that, from a medical standpoint, cellulite doesn't exist. Her eyes got so big I thought I'd be shot on the spot, but I told her to be patient because it gets better.
I told her that cellulite is nothing more than fat. Len Kravitz Ph.D., who published an outstanding article "Cellulite: Everything You Want To Know and More," in which he said "the name (cellulite) originated from the French medical literature over 150 years ago." He goes onto describe the physiological reasons why cellulite is nothing more than plain old body fat. (more…)
The reason anyone starts a fitness program is to see results, and the only way to know how far you've come is by knowing where you started.
P90X, the popular extreme home fitness program, understands the importance of tracking all indicators of fitness.
Instead of just tracking weight or measurements, P90X has an intensive Fitness Assessment that tracks your weight, measurements, strength, flexibility and cardiovascular capacity every step of the way.
The P90X program is split into three phases, 30 days each, and at the end of each phase, you will retest to see how much your health has improved. The first test is done before the first P90X workout so you know your baseline of fitness.
An Army Times article reported this week that soldiers are taking drastic steps to meet the military's weight standards. Soldiers have admitted to taking diet pills and laxatives, starving themselves and getting liposuction in order to meet what some see as impossibly low weight standards.
"Liposuction saved my career — laxatives and starvation before a PFT sustains my career," an anonymous soldier told the weekly paper. "I, for one, can attest that soldiers are using liposuction, laxatives and starvation to meet height and weight standards. I did, do and still do."
Almost half of all uniformed men and women in the US Army do not meet the weight standards, according to a 2009 military fitness report, and those officers are then made to use tape measurements to determine body fat percentage. If the percentages are too high, the soldiers cannot earn promotions or hold leadership roles. A further failure to lose weight is grounds for job loss. More than 24,000 soldiers were discharged between 1992 and 2007 for failure to meet weight standards.
VO2 max (V-volume per time, O2-oxygen, max-maximum) is typically defined as the maximum capacity of an individual's body to process oxygen during exercise. This number is useful because it is the most reliable way to determine the fitness level of the individual. By knowing your VO2 max, you can not only compare your fitness level to "standards", but you can also objectively assess your progress while improving your current overall level of endurance and fitness.
Knowing your VO2 max is also great for setting goals and motivation. Most recreational exercisers really don't need to know their VO2 max; although I recommend knowing it along with your weight, cholesterol, blood pressure, body fat, and BMI (Body Mass Index). By knowing these numbers, you are able to self- diagnose your current overall state of health and well-being (extremely important if you are over the age of 45). The more oxygen your muscles use, the more efficiently your body works, allowing you to do more work, with less stress on your body. VO2 max is one of those rare health numbers you want to go up, not down. (more…)

Crepe is death slippery on wet smooth concrete. Worse than leather soles.

I have one pair with crepe soles, the LS Natty CXL Tanker. I like it. It's light weight and quiet. Off the top of my head, I want to say that the crepe sole was used for desert combat boots. So, I wouldn't expect it to be robust in snow and ice conditions (I have not tried it myself). On the flip side, I wear my Alden boots in the spring/summer. So, the crepe sole works very well for me.post #39070 of 12241612/10/12 at 9:03pmQuote:

How did you get that price? Website showing $651 before discount. For those who have done so, did you just call and ask for the discount?post #39072 of 12241612/10/12 at 9:27pmhow does Van last fit compared to Trubalance and Barrie?post #39073 of 12241612/10/12 at 9:38pmmaybe i'm being a needy customer but i'm a bit irked at the lack of service from Alden of SF. I ordered the Ravello LWB on Saturday evening. After somebody suggesting they came with dark trim, I e-mailed them to ask about the trim. I asked if they could send a picture. The response I got was "It's antique trim. I can't send a picture." Okay? You don't have a smartphone? Whatever, fine. I thanked them for verifying and told them no picture was necessary. I informed them I would be leaving for Sweden in 10 days and wanted to know when I could expect them to ship. The response was: "You'll receive a confirmation sometime later today." Later today I received an e-mail from "UPS Quantum View," the automated UPS shipping notification. No e-mail from Alden of SF. No "Thank you for your order." No "Don't worry, we'll take care of it." It must be nice to sell a product that will sell out regardless of how you treat your customers. Would I shop there again? Sure, if they had something I really wanted... but if it came down to purchasing from somewhere else over them, I wouldn't even have to think twice about purchasing somewhere else. I just hope there is nothing wrong with them, I loathe to imagine engaging in any customer service issue with them. /end rantpost #39074 of 12241612/10/12 at 9:44pm

text: 803 FXUS64 KMAF 232319 AFDMAF Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Midland/Odessa TX 619 PM CDT FRI SEP 23 2016 .DISCUSSION... See aviation discussion below. && .AVIATION... VFR conditions are expected the next 24 hours at the majority of the west Texas and southeast New Mexico terminals. The exception is KMAF where tempo MVFR ceilings are expected in the 13z to 16z Saturday timeframe. An upper level disturbance will combine with a surface trough to produce scattered thunderstorms mainly across west Texas near the end of the TAF period later Saturday afternoon. Will likely address in more detail in the next issuance. Mainly south to southeast winds of 5 to 15 mph are expected the next 24 hours. 12 && .PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 200 PM CDT FRI SEP 23 2016/ DISCUSSION... Some big changes are on the way, but just how much change will depend on the formation and subsequent movement of a cutoff low. Presently, the evolution is for a cutoff low over the Great Basin will open a bit and translate northeast over the Northern Plains while another short wave trough develops to its south. This trough then evolves into a closed upper low over New Mexico. Given the uncertainty inherent with forecasting closed upper features, further adjustments to the forecast are likely. However, confidence is high that much cooler temperatures along with heavy rainfall are in the cards for Sunday, with well below normal temperatures persisting through the early part of next week. As it stands now, an upper level ridge, which has been over the Southern Plains for several days, will be shunted eastward in the next 24-36 hours as a large upper low currently over the Great Basin eases northeastward. A short wave trough within this upper low will eject northeastward over the central Rockies and out over the Northern Plains Saturday afternoon. In response to increasing surface frontogenesis associated with the passing of the aforementioned short wave trough over the Northern Plains, a cold front will develop and move south toward the southern High Plains, with colder air hugging the eastern slopes of the Rockies down to northeastern New Mexico by Sunday morning. Meanwhile, additional short wave energy will drop down behind the Northern Plains system and close off over southern New Mexico/northern Chihuahua by Sunday morning. A surface low will develop over the Big Bend, drawing the colder air deeper over much of west Texas and all of southeastern New Mexico Sunday afternoon. Surface cooling will be augmented further as extensive cloudiness will retard insolation and widespread precipitation will lead to substantial wet-bulb cooling of the column. Although models diverge in their handling of the upper low thereafter, cooler conditions are expected to prevail over the region through at least mid next week. High temperatures Monday and Tuesday could be 20 to 25 degrees below normal, if not more! Rain chances will increase over southeastern New Mexico and west Texas Saturday, then stay in the forecast through at least next Wednesday. See details below. For this afternoon and tonight, a surface trough over New Mexico will develop/move eastward into the forecast area this afternoon as the above mentioned initial short wave trough aids in lowering heights over the region. We will add isolated thunderstorms over the western half of the CWA this afternoon due to a minor short wave trough moving north from Coahuila. There does not appear to be much mid level support farther west near the surface trough, but that will change overnight as a shortwave trough sweeps east/ northeastward over New Mexico. In addition, deep layer lift associated with the right rear quadrant of an 80kt jet at 250 hPa may support isolated thunderstorms along the surface trough overnight. A few storms could be strong with gusty winds and brief heavy rainfall; however, effective shear is generally less than 25kt, instability is fairly modest, and lapse rates are close to moist adiabatic. On Saturday, the upper trough over the west will deepen as additional short wave energy drops into the base of the long wave trough over New Mexico. As a result, lift will increase over the area and as such thunderstorms are forecast to develop along and east of the surface trough stretching southwest/northeast across the CWA. Forecast SBCAPE will rise to at least 1000-1500 J/Kg, but lapse rates will continue to be near moist adiabatic and 0 to 6km shear will generally be 25kt or less. Therefore, we think a few strong storms could develop, perhaps reaching severe levels, with gusty winds over 50 mph, large hail and locally heavy rainfall. We will include this potential for strong to severe convection in the Hazardous Weather Outlook. For Sunday, the cutoff low is expected to reside over southern New Mexico/northern Chihuahua. With difluent flow aloft and deep layer lift further enhanced beneath the right rear quadrant of an 80kt jet at 250 hPa, isentropic upglide will increase above the frontal surface. This will in turn tap a subtropical moisture feed and increase deep layer moisture, a critical factor in heavy rain forecasting. By Sunday morning, precipitable water values will rise to between 1.25 and 1.50 inches, or close to the 90th percentile climatologically. We expect widespread showers and thunderstorms to develop Sunday morning along the southward-moving cold front, with signals indicating a good chance of heavy rainfall. Behind the front, gap winds through Guadalupe Pass could increase to 40 to 50 mph sustained. As stated earlier, surface cold air advection, low insolation, and diabatic cooling of the column behind the front will result in temperatures Sunday being well below normal areawide. We will make mention in the Hazardous Weather Outlook for the potential of heavy rainfall and flash flooding along with high winds through Guadalupe Pass. If model agreement continues, do not be surprised if a Flash Flood Watch is issued within the next 24 hours for Sunday and perhaps Sunday night for much of the forecast area along with a High Wind Watch for Guadalupe Pass. We will continue the theme of wet and cool conditions Monday through Wednesday, but lesser rainfall rates should mitigate heavy rain concerns. Where the cutoff low meanders to during this time frame will dictate how cool and how wet, but the details are uncertain. Best indications now will be for a warming and drying trend late next week. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

During the day, Leo will reveal his tricks of the trade and share more of his adventures while scrambling on Cam Crag Ridge, which is a classic grade I, II or III Lakeland scramble depending on the route.
The day starts with a walk from Stonethwaite into Langstrath valley reaching the popular natural swimming pool at Blackmoss Pott. There will then be a scramble chosen to suit the group up Cam Crag Ridge with rope support at the steepest parts – a great way to see Leo in action and chat with him whilst enjoying the unbeatable Lakeland views. Shearwater Adventure Training will guide you through the scramble and help you develop your skills whilst also sharing their knowledge of the local landscapes and expertise.
For a more relaxing way to hear about his latest adventures, Leo will be speaking in the Theatre by the Lake during the evening. Last year the audience gripped onto their seats as Leo took them on a whirlwind tour of his extreme rock climbing and BASE jumping escapades. He promised to come back if he survived his most outrageous expedition yet, to successfully complete the first free ascent of Mount Asgard's North Face and BASE jump from the summit in a wingsuit! Mount Asgard is north of the Arctic Circle on Baffin Island in Canada, one of the most impressive and remote rock faces on the planet.
The Asgard Project is the title of Leo's talk and the name of the award-winning film, which he produced and project lead, making it his most extreme challenge yet. There's more than a touch of 007 about the groundbreaking film, which starts with Leo and his two climbing partners Sean 'Stanley' Leary and Carlos Suares, skydiving into the Arctic Circle to start their attempt to conquer one of the world's most difficult big walls. The film, directed by the award winning film maker Alastair Lee, premiered at the Kendal Mountain Festival in November and was voted the People's Choice – winning five times as many votes as any other film.
The trip has been described as a 'epic struggle' by the team and Leo Houlding said it was his biggest challenge to date: "The Asgard Project was the most epic adventure you can imagine. It was way harder than Everest! We were pushed to the very limit. Had things been any harder we would have failed, or worse."
Kate Thomas, Director, Keswick Mountain Festival, said: "Having Leo to look forward to for the Saturday night slot at the festival is a real coup. We're delighted that he will be sharing the secrets of his amazing adventure with us."
Leo Houlding's talk is part of the Keswick Mountain Festival, which is being held between 19-23 May 2010, and jointly sponsored by Cumbria Tourism and Ordnance Survey.
Keswick Mountain Festival is now in its fourth year and for the first time it is organised by Bluestone Events, a Kendal-based company.
It's five days of pure adventure in and around Keswick – there are hundreds of outdoor activities to either try as a taster or experience in the extreme with local expert guides.
As well as Leo, there are more mountain heroes to take you on an adventure from the comfort of your seat in the Theatre By the Lake.
Speakers include Sir Ranulph Fiennes, Andy Cave, Andy Kirkpatrick, Joss Naylor, Kenny Stuart, Dave Birkett and Doug Scott CBE.
Tickets for all speakers are now available directly from the Theatre by the Lake:

Quasimoto - Catchin' the Vibe - Video
- August 06, 2013
Quasimoto's "Catchin' the Vibe" was released on the album Yessir Whatever produced by Madlib.
We set out to film the video for "Catchin' the Vibe" in Quasimoto's home town Lost Gates CA, but were denied filming permits. We were also denied permits for filming in Los Angeles County, possibly due to embarrassment caused in the wake of Quasimoto's "official letter of recognition" from the Los Angeles mayor and city council, who did not realize that Quasimoto was a semi-fictional cartoon character, weed-smoking promoter of chaos, obsessed with fat ass.
Our directors Tuomas Vauhkonen & Jeremias Nieminen instead chose to film primarily in Finland and Romania, using local actors. Madlib appears under costume in a quick cameo. Be sure not to miss the last part of the video that takes place after the song is over.
Directed & edited by: Tuomas Vauhkonen & Jeremias Nieminen; featuring Charlotta Strömberg; shot by Konrad Müller; set design by Sofia Palillo & Juha Ilmari Laine; sound recording by Ilkka Kunttu; Sound design by Tuomas Vauhkonen; production assistance by Suvi Solja.

Welcome to Classic Pet Portraits
Commission a portrait of a beloved pet or person, traditionally hand-painted in oil or pastel by Leah Knecht, an award-winning, classically trained artist. From your favorite photo, she will create a custom portrait that captures your pet's unique personality. Her style is highly detailed, and depicts your pet's likeness in a very realistic way. People remark they look "three-dimensional and alive." Backgrounds can be added, too.
• Exceptional quality art that you will be proud to own.
• The perfect way to immortalize your beloved pet forever.
• A great gift for pet lovers. Gift Certificates are available.
• Framing Packages in custom and stock frames available.
• Completely custom, hand-painted only by Leah Knecht.
(Other sites have paintings done in China, or are produced digitally.)
What a Portrait Can Do:
Oh Leah – The painting arrived and it is so beautiful – I am speechless. Thank you for helping me keep her memory alive. It is completely priceless to me. You are truly a blessing! All my best, Catherine.
It's Easy to Order:
The "Classic" Difference: Leah paints in the time-tested techniques of the Old Masters of the Renaissance, using only high quality, lasting materials, and each portrait is completed to the clients satisfaction. She strives to capture the personality of your pet or loved one.
Some portrait sites actually have their paintings done in China, where they don't use quality materials or processes. They often use ink-jet prints on canvas, then paint in oils on top of it. This will not last as it creates an unstable surface. Inks have a limited lifespan, and fade in light, while oil paintings have lasted centuries.
Other artists produce digital "Paintings" which are prone to the same problems, plus they don't have the depth of a real oil painting. The depth, details, and quality of the portraits is apparent. Compare close-ups of her work with other pet portraits, and you will be convinced!
About Commissions:
"If you're not sure what you want, it's OK. Send me photos of your pet or loved one, and I can suggest the best one for the portrait, and a good size for it. If you have a favorite photo, I will work from that one if possible. I can frame your oil portrait so that it's ready to hang when you receive it. (Perfect for gifts!) Portraits are carefully packaged, insured, and shipped safely to your door. My goal is to provide the best possible portrait and level of service for all of my clients, and I offer portrait options to suit most budgets. I also can provide international shipping."
–Leah Knecht, sole artist and owner of Classic Pet Portraits
About My Customer Service: From a client: " I just typed in google, "custom canvas paintings" and looked through a few, emailed a few and asked a few questions but by far, your service has been the best and easiest." — Bob
Selected Awards and Press:
Classic Pet Portraits Receives 2014 Best of Pasadena Award
PASADENA June 5, 2014 — Classic Pet Portraits has been selected for the 2014 Best of Pasadena Award in the Portrait Studio category by the Pasadena Award Program. Various sources of information were gathered and analyzed to choose the winners in each category. The 2014 Pasadena Award Program focuses on quality, not quantity. Winners are determined based on the information
gathered both internally by the Pasadena Award Program and data provided by third parties.
Excerpt of Review on Dog Express:
"There are many pet portrait artists available today and a quick Google search will bring up tens of thousands of choices, but The Dog Express has been blown away by the stunning, realistic and beautiful artwork created by Leah Knecht…Not only does Leah capture the life and personality of each pet that she paints, but she also adds depth and background to her paintings that makes them stand out and come alive on the canvas."
Our Verdict
This review verdict has to be the easiest 10/10 that we have ever or will ever give on The Dog Express. Leah's paintings are simply stunning and all of The Dog Express team members already know were they will be going for their Christmas presents this year! We are amazed by the quality and creativity shown in all of the Classic Pet Portrait paintings.These timeless, classic paintings will give years of joy to you as a pet owner, whether your beloved animal is still with you or not. If you have a photo of your pet and are looking for a way to immortalise them forever, or you are thinking of a suitable gift for a pet lover, there really is no better way than to commission one of Leah's paintings.
Articles in Pasadena House and Garden: "Bringing Your Pet to Life" Pasadena artist creates a lifetime of memories.
And "Portrait Artist Leah Knecht Creates Souvenirs for Life"
Gallery Wrap Offered — All 4 Sides Painted!
Framing / Memorial Packages Available
Before and After Example:
Leah can transform even a sub-par quality photo into a beautful work of art. Many clients have a favorite photo of their pet, but often the photo is blurred, too dark, or not clear. Many artists refuse to work from these, but Leah has the skill and experience to overcome these obstacles. She can also combine your pets into a single portrait, or add a stunning background. See More Examples.

All children newly enrolling in an Iowa elementary or high school are required to have a dental screening. This requirement was passed by the 2007 legislature and became effective July 1, 2008. The purpose of the dental screening requirement is to improve the oral health of Iowa's children. Dental screenings help with early detection and treatment of dental disease; promote the importance of oral health for school readiness and learning; and contribute to statewide surveillance of oral health.
Dental screenings are provided by an integrated network of health care professionals to supplement Iowa's dental workforce. Regional I-Smile™ coordinators, serving at the "hub" of this network, partner with schools to assist students who need a screening or require follow-up dental care.
The following are highlights of the school dental screening requirement:
The report includes student information from schools that submitted useable audit data through an electronic School Dental Screening Record Review form. Out of the 1,169 Iowa schools with kindergarten or ninth grade students in 2014-2015, audit data was submitted for 1,165 schools. This resulted in a school compliance rate of 99.7 percent. This was an increase from 96.1 percent in the 2013-2014 school year and shows significant improvement in school compliance since the initial rate of 69 percent in the first year of program implementation.
According to the Iowa Department of Education, there were 79,610 total students enrolled in kindergarten and ninth grade (K – 40,236; 9th – 39,374) during the 2014-2015 school year. Valid certificates (screening or exemption) were submitted for 58,103 students, resulting in a student compliance rate of 73 percent. This rate had remained relatively constant over the past few years, with compliance rates of 70.3 percent in the 2013-2014 school year, 71.1 percent in the 2012-2013 school year and 70.5 percent in the 2011-2012 school year.
For those schools included in the 2014-2015 audit report:

Dubai: The sluggishness in the economy which began in the second quarter of 2015 seem to have peaked, the troubles for the small and medium enterprises (SME) segment are fading and revival in project awards, especially those linked to Expo 2020 is expected to support faster growth in the retail banking business, Subroto Som, Head of Retail Banking Group at Mashreq told Gulf News in an interview.
The worst seems to be over for the SME loans business with a significant drop in the number of cases of businessmen skipping the country loan repayment. "The skips caused the bulk of the loan losses last year. They started to climb from the middle of last year and peaked in the first quarter of this year. Definitely in last 3-4 months there has been a sharp decline in skips and we expect it to improve further," said Som.
But a revival in SME lending business will largely depend on an overall improvement in the economy. Som does not expect to see a sharp jump in SME loans in the short term, but he is already tapping opportunities outside the assets business.
Despite all the troubles the SME sector has been facing, Mashreq has witnessed strong growth in new SME accounts this year with its deposit balance growth in excess of 30 per cent. "We have been getting good business from customers who maintain transaction accounts with us and use our foreign exchange products has also grown by about 35 per cent," said Som.
Positive signs
The bank expects the SME sector to pick up growth from the middle of next year as the economy gains growth momentum. The gloom in the SME business is slowly giving way for optimism. With the new bankruptcy law to come into effect from the beginning of next year, Som expects the business conditions will significantly improve in the SME segment.
"With the new [bankruptcy] law coming to effect, SME segment will become much safer to do business. I think 2017, 18 and beyond, we will see a better quality business emerge both for the SMEs and banks," he said.
Retail & wealth
In the UAE the biggest reason for slowdown in retail banking business came from job losses. The troubles in the SME sector also added to the woes of retail banking business.
"There has been some slowdown in the credit card and the personal loans business. But even within this slowdown we have witnessed growth in our high value customer base. Better quality customer segment is growing much faster. The premium segment of the customers has grown by almost 25 per cent compared to last year," Som said.
In cards business, the bank is in both acquiring and issuing business. In the acquiring business even though there has been a general slowdown in the business because of the decline tourist-spend and slower domestic spending growth, Mashreq is seeing a double digit year on year growth of 12 to 14 per cent compared to the market growth of 7 per cent.
With the card-spends on the rise in the eCommerce business, the bank clearly wants a fair share of that market segment. "We are we are growing at over 30 per cent in eCommerce linked card business. Acquiring business within the e-commerce is the fastest growing segment and we are growing at a pretty good rate," he said.
In the personal loans business the bank is seeing diverging trends in loans by the UAE nationals and expatriates. While the expat business that is directly linked to employment has witnessed some contraction, the rest is least impacted.
Mortgages have seen a 10 per cent growth this year. While a big chunk of the business is driven by expatriates, it is the mid-segment of the property market in the price range of Dh1.5 million to Dh5 million that has been driving the growth.
Wealth management is a new growth area for Mashreq. "We have seen about 35 per cent growth in assets under management (AUM). Of course, we were a smaller player in the market and the growth looks bigger from a smaller base," he said.
Factbox: Overseas markets
Mashreq has presence in two fast growing regional markets — Qatar and Egypt. While the businesses in both these markets are relatively small, the bank expects to see strong growth in the years ahead. The Bank completes 45 years in Qatar in 2016. Last two years have seen positive results and good growth from Egypt, however Egypt is facing a number of economic challenges that is dragging the potential for higher growth.
"We are growing because we continue to invest in our products and services. Most significantly, we are investing in technology and innovation. A key differentiator for Mashreq Egypt would be introducing innovation in the form of digital branches, internet banking, mobile banking and smart banking and we are currently putting the right structures and products in place, building cards and accounts business there," said Som.

Tom Smith (R) is a candidate who doesn't get as much attention as he should be getting. With more news coverage and promotion, he could increase name recognition and defeat Obama-follower Senator Bob Casey (D-Pennsylvania).
As most of you know, LLPH Second Revolution supports Republicans, but we only endorse true conservatives. Tom Smith is one of those true conservatives!
Tom Smith has said that he wants to "double Pat Toomey". Senator Toomey (R-Pennsylvania) defeated Democrat Joe Sestak and succeeded RINO-turned Democrat Senator Arlen Specter. Here's the link: http://republicanherald.com/news/farmer-wants-to-double-toomey-1.1354748
Senate Conservatives Fund (along with Senator Jim Demint (R-South Carolina) has endorsed Tom Smith. This is what the Senate Conservatives Fund has said about Mr. Smith:
"Running for the U.S. Senate after he left the coal business was the farthest thing from Tom Smith's mind, but that changed when an old friend asked, What will our children say to our grandchildren about why our generation avoided the tough decisions and simply passed the bill along to them?
From that question was born a campaign for the Senate, not to fulfill a long-held ambition or to climb the political ladder, but rather to answer that question: Who will go to Washington to safeguard the American Dream before it is too late? Tom Smith has taken on that challenge, and his campaign has drawn the support of a wide cross-section of Pennsylvanians."
Tom Smith will fight for coal...Senator Casey has fought against coal.
Tom Smith will fight for pro-life values...Senator Casey has betrayed pro-life values.
Tom Smith will represent Pennsylvanians...Senator Casey has and will always represent President Obama.

GMC Safari ProblemsCheck Engine Light Due to Gas Cap Issue
Illumination of the Check Engine Light can be caused by a loose or worn gas cap.

Cleaning the valve will usually correct this condition, in some rare cases the valve will need to be replaced.
The distributor may develop internal faults. This can cause a rough running engine or stalling condition, the Check Engine Light may or may not illuminate. Our technicians tell us that the distributor should be overhauled or replaced to correct this concern.

GMC Safari RecallsRecall 05V099000
An interference fit between the lower ball joint rubber boot and the steering knuckle may cause the rubber boot to be cut. This would allow entry of water, dirt, salt, or other contaminants, possibly leading to premature wear. Failure from premature wear could lead to separation of the steering knuckle and lower control arm, which would cause the vehicle to drop at the affected corner. Vehicle handling and braking could be compromised, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will replace the steering knuckles. The recall began April 8, 2004. The GM recall number is 03044.
