Support for those with a family member on the autistic spectrum. Asperger syndrome, which affects communication and social interaction, is a neurological disorder which is believed to affect more than 200,000 people in the UK. Unlike others on the autistic spectrum, those with Asperger syndrome often want to communicate, and to share their lives, but don't know how.
This audiobook looks at how families with an "Aspie" can help them be accepted for what they are, to lead full lives and to make the most of their unique gifts. It explains the common signs of Asperger syndrome in babies and young children, and gives advice to parents on how to overcome any difficulties at school that an older child might face. Advice is also given on the vulnerable teenage years and how to promote relationships with others. This audiobook also looks at the historical background to this disorder, and at great thinkers with Asperger type characteristics, including Einstein.

"Markedly dry but infinitely informative"
While I enjoyed the narrator's accent (Scottish?) and the wealth of information he conveyed, this is very much an academic perspective on AS.
So while it wasn't particularly easy to get through, if you or someone you care about has AS, you need to read this book. Well worth every minute and every cent.
"very good book."
I really enjoyed this book. I learned a lot. this is a definite good book to read.
"Good info and nicely narrated"
Very good and interesting info, good structure, easy to follow and nicely narrated.
Enjoyed this book and probably would buy the book to remind myself in writing.
Far too many factual errors (which existing in the written book). Clearly Joan Gomez has no real experience with this complex syndrome and it just regurgitating things she's picked up from other sources. This lack of understanding creates a barely coherent explanation of Asperger Syndrome. I'd give this 9/10 if it was a student project, but as a professionally written medical text 1/1.
The narrators voice also just didn't suit the subject matter.
No - Although Audible should be very careful about how medical books are sourced. There is a lot of bad choices in this genre as well as some excellent ones. Unfortunately the badly written or misguided biases are starting to overtake the useful ones.
A northen male accent just didn't seem to suit talking about "giving lots of love" to a child. Not sure why, it just sounded infantile.

Only the most heroic punting appetite will remain unsatisfied after the past four days. Happily, however, the racing calendar tends to introduce a sorbet at just the right stage of the banquet. So while the Festival is over, Flat racing resumes on turf next weekend – not to mention the richest meeting in history, in Dubai – and a fortnight later many Cheltenham stars will reconvene at Aintree. And both themes are usefully anticipated by today's televised action, which features a Grand National trial and the climax of the all-weather Flat season.
Henry Cecil has one of the Dubai World Cup favourites in Twice Over, but first seeks some loose change in the Sportingbet Supports Heros Winter Derby at Lingfield. Having been campaigned as a stayer, Tranquil Tiger has proved productive dropped to shorter distances and has taken especially well to this surface, but the class act in this field is Stotsfold (3.35). Better than ever last year, he produced a career best when third in the Arlington Million behind Gio Ponti, subsequently runner-up to Zenyatta in the Breeders' Cup Classic. Stotsfold's style of racing is ideally tailored to this track and his acceleration can place the progress of Dalradian in due context.
Elna Bright (2.25) has been thriving all winter and a narrow defeat off too steady a pace last time suggests he remains competitively treated for his reunion with Kieren Fallon. Jira (3.00) is just the type of Clive Brittain filly with which tends to build surprisingly on foundations laid as a juvenile.
The dry spell means that the John Smith's Midlands National makes fairly anomalous demands of a field assembled with a slog through the mud in mind. Just about the only runner demonstrably comfortable on top of the ground is Iris De Balme (3.15 Uttoxeter) and he could prove value after running poorly last time. He had previously shaped nicely on his comeback, and his swift reappearance implies that no insoluble problem emerged after his run at Doncaster.
Turf account: Chris McGrath
Back In Business (5.25 Ffos Las)
Looks appropriately named, having shaped nicely in a couple of spins over hurdles after a long absence and now well handicapped for his return to fences.
Next best
Jaconet (4.45 Lingfield)
Has improved dramatically since her plating days, being especially lethal on this surface, and returned from a break with another blistering win over course and distance last month.
One to Watch
Rite Of Passage (D K Weld) went so strongly before reaching the hill at Cheltenham on Wednesday that he may yet prove top-class dropped back to two miles.
Where the Money's Going
Crowded House is 16-1 from 20-1 with Ladbrokes for the Dubai World Cup.

Pelican, any of seven or eight species of water birds in the genus Pelecanus constituting the family Pelecanidae (order Pelecaniformes), distinguished by their large, elastic throat pouches. Pelicans inhabit lakes, rivers, and seacoasts in many parts of the world. With some species reaching a length of 180 cm (70 inches), having a wingspan of 3 metres (10 feet), and weighing up to 13 kg (30 pounds), they are among the largest of living birds.
Pelicans eat fish, which they catch by using the extensible throat pouch as a dip-net. The pouch is not used to store the fish, which are swallowed immediately. One species, the brown pelican (P. occidentalis), captures fish by a spectacular plunge from the air, but other species swim in formation, driving small schools of fish into shoal water where they are scooped up by the birds.
- Listen: pelican: vocalizations of a pelican chickAudio clip of vocalizations of a pelican chick.
Pelicans lay one to four bluish white eggs in a stick nest, and the young hatch in about a month. The young live on regurgitated food obtained by thrusting their bills down the parent's gullet. The young mature at three to four years. Though ungainly on land, pelicans are impressive in flight. They usually travel in small flocks, soaring overhead and often beating their wings in unison. The sexes are similar in appearance, but males are larger.
The best-known pelicans are the two species called white pelicans: P. erythrorhynchos of the New World, the North American white pelican, and P. onocrotalus of the Old World, the European white pelican. Between 1970 and late 2009, the smaller, 107–137-cm brown pelican was listed as endangered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Though the brown pelican once bred in enormous colonies along New World coasts, its population declined drastically in North America during the period 1940–70 as a result of use of DDT and related pesticides. The birds' breeding improved after DDT was banned.
Pelicans usually breed in colonies on islands; there may be many small colonies on a single island. The gregarious North American white pelican breeds on islands in lakes in north-central and western North America; all pairs in any colony at any given time are in the same stage of the reproductive cycle. It is migratory, as are some other species. The brown pelican breeds along the tropical and subtropical shores of both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts.
Pelicans were once thought to be more closely related to cormorants, darters, frigate birds, and gannets and boobies, which were placed in the order Pelecaniformes with them. However, more-recent genetic analysis suggests that the aforementioned seabirds may be more accurately grouped in their own order (Suliformes). A suggested revision of the order Pelecaniformes places pelicans with herons and egrets (family Ardeidae) and ibises and spoonbills (family Threskiornithidae), along with the hammerhead (Scopus umbretta) and the shoebill (Balaeniceps rex).

The Professionalization Project increase and improve a lot since the beginning.
Last November, Saúde Criança won an important award, Making More Health from Changemakers from Ashoka.
Since the beginning of the project, during the past years now we have offered to students 1749 work tools and 2756 professional training courses, internal and external and we hope to keep increasing the numbers of graduation.
In January, Saúde Criança is recognized as the best NGO in Latin America and the 38th in the world
According to the ranking published by the Global Journal, Saúde Criança is ranked the best Brazilian organization and 38th among the top 100 NGOs in the world. This initiative seeks to recognize the important role of NGOs as agents of global change.
The Global Journal, a monthly magazine based in Switzerland, is a new media dedicated to global governance. To reach the final selection, Global Journal used the following criteria: innovation, effectiveness, impact, efficiency & value for money, transparency & accountability, sustainability, strategic & financial management and peer review ( NGO and donor perceptions / awards and recognition).
Initially a list of 1,000 NGOs was established. This first list was then subjected to two group reviews, the first resulted in a 'short-list' of 400 and after a qualitative selection the final ranking of 1000 institutions was mounted.
It is the first time that such a list is organized and according to the article published in the magazine, it aims to stimulate debate by providing scholars, diplomats, public policy makers, international organizations and the second sector with an insight of the innovative approaches of the third sector and its main actors.
Project Reports on GlobalGiving are posted directly to globalgiving.org by Project Leaders as they are completed, generally every 3-4 months. To protect the integrity of these documents, GlobalGiving does not alter them; therefore you may find some language or formatting issues.
If you donate to this project or have donated to this project, you will get an e-mail when this project posts a report. You can also subscribe for reports via e-mail without donating.

More bass on Ms. Pacman
Photo by Jeanne RiceMy top five newest (and somewhat obscure) albums:
> Delerium, Karma. "This is the U.S. answer to Enigma. My highest recommendation! Combines trance-type beats and rhythms with extremely melodic and intricately dreamy chord progressions and vocals. Some songs feature a couple of talented female singers, including Sarah McLachlan. Everyone I've ever had listen to this CD has thanked me immensely later! This was their second album. Their first, Semantic Spaces, is also really good."
> Blue Man Group, Audio. "I saw these guys perform on Jay Leno a few weeks ago, and they blew me away! Not only a freaky, amazing stage show (everyone is painted blue!), but they also make their own wacky instruments, which sound amazing. The CD jacket describes how they come up with some of their sounds—an intensely percussive and melodic sound, with some cool guitar licks. These guys are going to be performing in February at the Luxor in Vegas. Definitely new and exciting!"
> Propellerheads, Decksandrumsandrockandroll. "Everyone remembers the scene in The Matrix in which Neo and Trinity are blowing the hell out of everyone in the foyer of that building. Remember the great music that made that scene? That's the Propellerheads! That track ('Spybreak') is included on this album, which is officially their first (they've done lots of singles and 12-inches). They've also worked on other movies, including the James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies. Amazing non-vocal tracks using the intensest drums and catchiest bass lines ever!"

Techno, trance, rave, industrial, electronica-type beats mixed with everyone's favorite spy tune! Great music to drive really fast to on the freeways (especially when you're getting chased by cops!). Check it out at www.bondmusic.com."
> Ludwig van Beethoven, Immortal Beloved soundtrack. "I know it's not really new and probably not too obscure, but I could never make a best-of list without mentioning the master. I've heard hundreds of recordings of these songs, and I always keep coming back to these. Yeah, sure, 'Moonlight Sonata' is played too fast, and they cut sections of the Ninth Symphony, but this is the ultimate Beethoven's Greatest Hits. All of his most amazing pieces, recorded in 20-bit, including performances by Yo-Yo Ma and conducted by Sir George Solti. A must-have for anyone even remotely interested in the classics. And if you're not, do yourself a huge favor and discover Beethoven for the first time! You may find yourself weeping uncontrollably over some notes one man put together a couple of hundred years ago! When's the last time Ricky Martin did that to ya?"

Mud Building at the Community Garden
On Wednesday, volunteers and members of the Kalisher community garden gathered to reinforce the walls of our godjo, a traditional Ethiopian hut. We had lots of fun in the mud, getting our hands – and feet! – dirty as we mixed the mud and applied it to the walls by hand.
For the mud building, we made casco, which is the material traditionally used to make pueblos. For a good, strong structure you need three layers. The first is a mixture of pure clay, sand, and straw. The second layer includes clay, sand, and mulched straw. The final coat consists of just clay and sand, which provides for a nice, smooth finish.
We first mixed the clay by hand to get it as smooth as possible, then stomped on it to get out any remaining lumps and air bubbles. The straw helps to hold it all together and create a stable cement.
Everyone chipped in to help get the mud on the walls of the godjo. Now we're just hoping we don't get any unexpected rain so it can dry properly!
We loved our day of fun in the mud! For more photos of the whole process of building our godjo, check out our album on Facebook!

We recently stopped in to the RFM as we were visiting the Northern Neck. This small museum is well appointed with wonderful historical artifacts, photographs and dioramas of the commercial fishing industry especially that surrounding Menhaden. There is a nice gift shop complete with cookbooks, clothing and children's memorabilia. We also took a tour of the restored 1875 Walker House... More
We stopped here on our way to a family vacation. My dad is a big fan of fishing and fishing related things so I thought this would be a great museum for him. We were not disappointed. The docents were fantastic and took us on a tour of the boat building area as well as the model train display -... More
We stopped by well before the museum opened because we were on our way out of town, but still got to see a large variety of sailing vessels, accompanied by interpretive signs. Lovely location. Next trip we will get there during business hours.
This best part of this tour was taking the boat out on the river! Seeing Reedville by boat getting the history of the area by a local was awesome. Would recommend a stop here any day
The Fisherman's Museum in Reedville is worth a visit. It has a great display of local fishing life and diorama's of life in Reedville. They also have a full size replica of John Smith's boat that sailed the Chesapeake Bay.
Very informative and the objects collected from years past were intriguing.The slideshow presentation showed us the things we had seen and some we had not in the previous days so that we could go out and explore more.
This is a very interesting place to visit with knowledgeable staff to answer questions and talk about the local history. I especially found the display on the traveling Show Boats that used to visit the area. Never knew much about their history or popularity.
We spend a lovely morning visiting this tiny gem. The museum has several buildings: the museum itself which houses the history of the Town. It also has a great feature on the original floating show boats that went up and down that river that were the basis for the book and stage play Show Boat. We had a great docent,... More
Our group of a dozen were eager to see what we had heard so much about. It is a seasonal operation, and in the off times they require reservations to open up. It took several emails over a few months to get a response, when I was told that I had been on the books for awhile. I called and... More
Great history of the town, the railroad, the fishing industry, and boating on the Bay. Exhibits change regularly. Train exhibit is so cool for children and adults. Don't think it is going to be a quick visit. Leave yourself a few hours to cover it all.

Or it will be next week.
As I write this, I am in full prep-mode for moving our youngest to her university town for her first year of school. As you read this, however, I will be in the middle of actually doing it. I figured that since I would have my hands full and maybe not great access to the internet, I should write and post this now. The thing is as I write this, I'm trying to stay in denial. I know this. My daughter knows it. It's the only way I can cope. I am keeping myself busy, distracted, trying to avoid the conscious acknowledgement of the future "empty room". But as I write this, the emotional truth is rising up, hitting me square in the chest.
Michele at 6. I could say something cheesy about the plane and "flying away", but I won't... |
Because this one just makes us all laugh... |
Just because... |
Because when you start with one cute kid shot, it's hard to stop... |
And because you've already seen her all grown up... |
I know fundamentally all will be well and good; I will get to reconnect with my husband, myself, my cleaner house; I'll get used to it; it will be the new normal; there are phone calls and texting and skype. Blah blah blah.
But the truth is it is a heartbreaking and difficult transition, this one. My baby is leaving and her room will never be the same. Sure, it might be a lot cleaner. Sure, I might have greater access to my towels, my bathroom, my kitchen counter, my clothes. But that soon-to-be clutter-free, laundry-less bedroom across for my own will now loom like a portal––maybe to an old life, maybe to the new one––and it's now-open door will be a daily reminder of who is gone.
This might all be overly dramatic or emotional or just plain wrong, but I'm telling you: this is exactly how it feels on this day. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah.
Deb: Not too dramatic at all in my opinion, for you know I have been there and you know the whole sad wrenching tale. Thought I would die the day the boy left. I felt so empty I could not fathom how I was able to stand up with nothing inside to hold me together.
I will tell you though from my vantage point three years post leaving: it does get better. It becomes normal, it becomes just your life. As quickly as the hands-on Mum in grade school grade school was forced to become the hands-off Mum in high school, you will adapt.
But yeah, the room.
Fortunately the boy's room is on the other side of our home so I don't have to pass by it every day as you do. But it brings to mind one of the best parenting choices I ever made. When Luke was growing up we never ever fought about the state of chaos that was his room. Our only rule was: tidy it on Thursday nights for the cleaning lady coming. He did, and it never became an issue. I never wanted to rant about pop cans and dirty underwear on the floor and I didn't. I knew that all too soon, it would be as neat as a pin and as empty as my heart.
Cut to three years later ... It's a great place to keep the iron and ironing board.
But wow, do I ever look forward to that visiting carpet of dirty underwear when it appears, however brief.

An Iteration of the Lean Meetings Concept
The Personal Kanban blog ran a great pair of articles on "Lean Meetings" (part 1, part 2.)
I recommend reading through them to get more context for what follows, but I'll re-share one of the biggest insights: the point of a meeting is to have a conversation. Pre-set agendas feel like best practice, but they can get in the way of that 'true goal' more often than not.
Control, agendas, and procedures impeded conversation, focusing on the structure of the meeting rather than the topics at hand. If you want people to engage in and feel they've derived value from your meeting, make them feel respected, not restricted.
After having orchestrated a few meetings using this idea, some helpful practices have emerged, which seemed worth sharing.
The basic framework still holds:
- Framework: Draw a Personal Kanban
- Personal Agendas: Invite all attendees to write their topics on sticky notes
- Democratization: Invite all attendees to vote on the topics on the table (each person gets two votes)
- Group Agenda: Prioritize the sticky notes
- Discuss
The riffs on that list are:
We found that converting (To Do, Doing, Done) to (To Do, Goals, Doing, Takeaways, Done) has been helpful.
Here is what those new substeps entail:
Before we actually start discussing a topic, create a shared understanding of what we hope to get out of it. Paraphrasing David Allen, "what does 'wild success' look like at the end of this?" What is the value we need to deliver to our customers or organization by the time we're done?
Concretely, this can come down to basic things. Plan fall employee event? The goals might be "Define vision, date, coordinator, and budget."
It can also be fuzzier: "Understand each other's feelings about this topic."
In practice, it's been interesting how hard it can be for a team to get this articulated -- and there's a high correlation between "hard to find goals" and "conversations that would wander and go nowhere."
Mechanically, as is hinted at in the diagram above, we found it natural to add a new sticky with the goals on it as a "rider" to the original topic note. That kept the goals clear and visible to everyone, and they were referred to frequently.
This is probably implicit in what it means to move a topic from "Doing" into "Done", but it's helpful as a reminder. "Who is responsible for taking things away from this item?" It's a good hook for recording things, especially if there's no formal note-taker.
We also use this as a hook to make sure to consider how any conclusions (or lack thereof) need to be communicated to the wider group that was not in attendance at the meeting.
Personal Agendas
At this point we've only really used this idea as-written, but I'm curious to play with various brainstorming/gamestorming or focusing techniques to help generate higher-value items for the team to choose from, rather than those that happen to be top-of-mind for the participants (or have been recorded in their own trusted systems.)
We did bring an idea from Kanban in -- 'item types.' This was helpful at an all-day monthly meeting one of our teams have. We created a special designation (color of sticky works, as pictured above, or a separate section in the backlog) for items that are "Today Or They Die" -- things which will happen between now and the next meeting, regardless of if we discuss them or not. If it's December 1, and your next Meeting is Jan 1, you should probably make your Christmas plans.
This can help with voting; those items may still not end up getting selected for discussion, but at least the team has a shared understanding that we're letting the opportunity pass.
It's mentioned in the linked articles, but the feature of being able to discover new items "on the fly" and work them seamlessly into the backlog is amazingly useful. In life things are fundamentally interconnected so it's to be expected and encouraged that we'll discover or create things that need discussion as a function of discussion. Agendas hate this idea.
The 'everyone gets N votes' method works well. We also experimented with a few other methods of prioritization:
- "If you only get to discuss one thing today...": each member gets to select one item to bring into To Do. Perhaps more Socialist than Democratic, but it was a nice way to start off the day.
- "Lightning Round": Are there any topics remaining in the backlog we can get through productively in 5 minutes or less? This was a fun way to get back into things after a lunch break, but somewhat risky -- one of the items selected turned into a 45 minute discussion.
One challenge with voting early in the discussion, particularly for all-day meetings, is allowing priority to evolve over time as perspectives and time pressures change. Using voting just to bring a few items into the ready queue, and then voting again (from scratch) to repopulate when it empties, seemed to work well.
This way of organizing meetings has really enhanced the quality of our discussions and the value they deliver. It ends up feeling much more natural -- still providing the compass and context we're frustrated about not having in a truly chaotic meeting, without the rigidity and creator bias that an agenda brings. After two separate meetings, participants made comments like "that was the most productive and engaging meeting I've ever been a part of." That's reason enough to continue exploring!
Thanks again to Jim and Tonianne for the education and inspiration.

Published on 19.09.99 in Vol 1 (1999): Supplement 1
HIN4/397: Designing the Web- and Fax-based Consultancy and Information Service "EcgConsult" for Clinicians Dealing with ECG Diagnostics and Rhythmologic Problems
Introduction: Modern strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac arhythmias include besides non-invasive methods an increasing variety of invasive and curative therapeutic strategies. In order to define proper rhythmologic diagnosis and to develop an optimal treatment strategy for individual patients, a high degree of rhythmologic expertise is necessary. Adequate platforms for information exchange, where physicians can meet rhythmologic experts to allow proper handling of individual rhythmologic problems are desirable. Thus, the Heart Center Leipzig develops the Web- and Fax-based consultancy and information service "EcgConsult".
Methods: The service utilizes the network capabilities of the Internet and of the common telecommunication network. This way information input can be achieved either by using a browser/email-client or by using a fax machine. All input from both networks is collected on a centralised mail-server (SSL-POP3 protocol). User interaction on the Web site is achieved with dynamic HTML and a moderated List-Server. The List-Server and an additional discussion area on the Web site are moderated by the Consultants at the Heart Center Leipzig, adequate processing of the site-content and technical management of the site have been outsourced to the university Internet workgroup Elchsoft/Medkonsult.
Results: A prototype of the site and the communication architecture for fax/email have been established and successfully beta-tested. Any consulting physician can easily send ECGs and additional material to the server with any fax-machine, where they are automatically TIFF-file converted. A password-protected site is already in use with selected clinicians (http://www.ecgconsult.de). For mobile site management, a web-based Control-Center has been designed. Outlines of contract models for members, guidelines for security purposes of the web-based communication, a business/cost plan and models for the logistic request management as well as for member/patient identification have been developed.
Discussion: The platform "EcgConsult" provides a network with fast and easy access to a specific target group and thus allows easy information exchange between the Heart Center Leipzig and rhythmologic experts and non-experts. This exchange may generate synergy effects by offering both groups a variety of data and information. Due to the use of web- and fax-based technology, the access to the service is easy and does not require PC-equipment or a scanner. The requests can be answered by the Heart Center consultants from any remote location world-wide. For the future open-ended architecture allows the participation of further consultants from clinics all over the world. The knowledge gathered from this project may help setting up guidelines for the development of other web-based medical competence centers / information services.

rear end numbers
Can anyone give me info on these numbers i took off my s10 rear end. I need to know what year it is and what gears came in it. I have to go to a higher gear ratio as my engine is reving to high at 60mph. The rear end came from a 4 wheel drive s10. Thanks for any help on this as i need to get new gears put in real soon. Thanks. Here are the numbers-- KUR-C-205-1
Sponsored Links | |||
rear end numbers
Ok i still dont know what my gear ratio is yet, but im running a 250 six cyl, 3 speed trany, so what do you all think would be a good gear ratio for driving in the 70 to 75mph range. Like i said my engine is just winding up to high with whatever i have now. I dont know much about rear gear combos, so i need good advice on this. You all have never let me down before, and now that i have to have someone else do my work on it, i need help. I have one show i want to go to next year and its 250 miles away. I want to go to this one show before i lose my last eye. My brother has to drive me everywhere now, as i cant see good enough to drive anymore, but i have spent 7 years building my 48 chevy and i just cant give up yet. Thanks again my friends.
Chances are you have a 3.73 or 3.42 right now. To run the RPMs that you want to run you need something around a 3.08 or 2.73. This is going to make it hard to take off with the 3 speed. An overdrive woudl be better and just keep the rear end that you have now. If you want to keep the 3 speed then I recommend changing the complete rear end. To go from a 3.73 or 3.42 to a 3.08 or 2.73 you will have to change the gears and differential. The 7.5 10 bolt uses the 2 series for the 2.73 and 3.08 and the 3 series for the 3.42 and 3.73. This will be a lot of work and changing the complete rear end will be easier.
rear end numbers
Thanks for the info. i will get the gears changed now. Thanks again.
rear end numbers
Would it help to just put a chevy 5 speed trans in, and will it bolt in place of my 3 speed. Just a thought .
A 5 speed would be a good choice with the gears you have now.
You have to consider that with the 5 speed you'll need a new floor shifter and relocate or change the cross member location. A few other things would be clutch linkage compatibility, back up lights, and I'm sure an issue with the tranny to drive shaft yoke. It might be easier to just swap out a different rear axle with the ratio you want. 3:08's would still take off ok with lower hwy rpm's. I'm with big gear head on this one. One tip is geat a can of PB Blaster and a 3ft. long cheater bar. Start soaking the bolt's and nut's a couple of day's before you start the job. |
rear end numbers
If i pull my cover off my rear end, how can i tell what gear ratio i have in it. I have a friend who is going to put my 3.08 gears in for me. but i need to measure my ring gear so i can order the correct kit. He said there are 2 sizes of ring gears, 8.50 and 7.50 so when i get the cover off is there any way to find what gear ratio i now have. Thanks all who help me on this matter.
Usually, you can find the ratio stamped on the edge of the ring gear. You can also count the teeth on the ring gear and pinion gear and divide the ring gear # by the pinion #. (gotta love calculator's over pencil and paper!).
rear end numbers
If you're still unsure or curious, unless the gears have been swapped look on the inside glovebox for the RPO sticker:
Axle Ratio RPO Codes GU4=3.08 GU5=3.23 GU6=3.42 GT4=3.73 GT5=4.10 HC4=4.56 G80 - limited slip |

It's fantastic news that BMW is investing another £500m to build the next generation of Minis, a move that will protect 5,000 jobs for many years.
Coming just days after Nissan said it would invest another £200m and so soon after Tata's decision to build another Land Rover Jaguar plant, this is excellent evidence that the UK's automotive industry is speeding again.
So it's imperative that this vote of confidence by foreign manufacturers should not be undermined by the gloomy prognosis elsewhere in the economy. Of course consumer confidence and retailing is tough – households are still restructuring their own deficits and the latest price hikes in electricity are going to make this even tougher.
Attempts to rebalance the economy away from the froth of finance towards manufacturing was always going to be painful, but those efforts seem to be paying off. Manufacturing output dipped slightly from March to April but the outlook is bright. Figures last week from EEF, the manufacturers trade body, show recruitment intentions have never been higher and that growth is running at a booming 3.2 per cent this year.
Vacancies were up 60 per cent last year and nearly a third of all growth came from manufacturing in the past year although the sector represents just 13 per cent of output. A quarter of manufacturers say they will employ more staff this year on a net basis.
Yet, there's a big problem – we don't have enough skilled workers to fill all the vacancies. EEF warns of an acute skills shortage across all manufacturing for thousands and thousands of jobs from those which require the most basic NVQ skills to ones which need PhDs. This is astonishing when you consider there are thousands of youngsters aged between 18 and 24 without work.
What's gone so wrong? Well, it's a shortage which existed well before the recession but has worsened because no one anticipated quite how strong the recovery would be. As EEF's economist Lee Hopley puts it, the pipeline for training engineers was cracked years ago and how we fill the void is the real crisis facing industry.
This has been caused by two problems. First, manufacturers can't find enough 14 to 19-year-olds with the right skills due to poor teaching in subjects such as science and maths. Second, there aren't enough youngsters interested in manufacturing simply because they are not given good advice at school where careers guidance is notoriously hopeless, particularly the Connexions service which is a disgrace. I have teenagers at school and know that engineers or inventors are never invited in for talks. Nor have I ever come across careers fairs where local manufacturers have been present.
There is so much which can be done to change the culture towards science again. Why aren't teenagers being taken on visits to see some of our latest state-of-the-art factories (Bentley in Crewe would be a brilliant place to start) rather than yet another museum?
If the Government is serious about boosting manufacturing – and I believe it is – then it must go to the root of the problem. This can only be done once it accepts the culture and infrastructure must be overhauled. We need to train a new generation of good science teachers, boost FE and technical colleges and persuade UK's manufacturers to get out on the road selling their wares. Time for Lord Sugar to get off our screens and people like Sir James Dyson to get into the classroom.
London listing authority must move swiftly to salvage its listings reputation
Sir Richard Sykes is right. If London is to hold on to its reputation as one of the world's greatest markets, then the UK Listing Authority must move swiftly to tighten up its listing requirements and corporate governance.
At present, companies – both domestic and overseas – are required to list a minimum of 25 per cent of their shares if they seek a full listing. However, companies and their advisers are able to argue that exceptions can be made, which is why so many companies have been able to list with a smaller free float (shares that are actually available to investors).
In the case of ENRC, advisers were able to list the Kazakh mining giant with only 18 per cent of the shares being floated. But, as Sir Richard says, the danger signals were there from the beginning, as the majority of shares were held by a small number of powerful investors. Sir Richard was one of four independent directors on the 14-man board, but even so he says they found it impossible to persuade the other Kazakh directors to follow the rules. It's a pity that someone as experienced as Sir Richard wasn't able to tough it out.
Many overseas companies have already found it difficult to find good "independent" directors to bolster their corporate governance and they are going to find it even harder after watching this latest coup. Even those directors who may have been tempted to take on such roles for the money will be put off.
But there's another, much bigger issue brewing which the City needs to address. Criticism is now at fever pitch over the way investment bankers have been dumping big issues on the London market as they attempt to cream off fees. Buy-side firms, such as the giant BlackRock, are furious at the way bankers are valuing the shares of new companies far too high and that the book-running syndicates of investment banks have too much power and have become too large.
It is odd how criticisms like this only ever emerge when times are tough and it's hard to make even a few basis points. But if the City wants to stay ahead for the next bull market, it needs a clean-up.
IMF chief-elect: A fitness fanatic it would be foolish to mess with
Barring last-minute scandals or a last-minute pitch, Mme Christine Lagarde looks set to cruise into the hot seat as the next chairman of the IMF. Nominations closed on Friday and, following the withdrawal of Grigory Marchenko, governor of Kazakhstan's central bank, Lagarde will go through unopposed. It's a great result as France's finance minister is the most accomplished candidate to have emerged during the campaign, and it's a credit to those who wanted the next IMF boss to come from an emerging country that they have come on side. Let's hope the fractured politics of the IMF don't distract her. I doubt it – the 55-year-old is a strict vegetarian and fitness fanatic who never drinks a drop of alcohol. Watch out, boys.

in specific calling someone else a "liar" Look again sunshine. The first accusation of lying in the thread starting at your link was not by me. And for the record, the original accuser throws that accusation around like confetti. Once again, you read half a thread and don't follow the conversation. Hence you jump to the wrong conclusion.

This morning it is raining and a man is coming to town. I read his book once about a dog and his love for that dog back when i was first arrived in Boulder...right before I hurt my knee. Ted Kerasote is his name and today he is coming to Muttropolis at 7 pm to talk about his book...Merle's Door. I again find myself fascinated not only with his story and my own life's reflection of the tangible relationship he had with his dog, but more importantly, i think he has proven that to be a writer is truly a gift to share and give back to others. I don't know his background and how he started writing and i may ask him today, but I am inspired to write because of him, because of the importance of sharing our experiences with those around us and how, without planning or knowing, we can give to others hope, understanding, compassion, humor, sadness, guilt, anger, recognition...all from a simple effort, really, of pen to paper, or now days for me, fingers to keyboard. I do look back on many old journals and wonder if I should mine them for stories, experiences and thoughts...I probably will, but for now I have been charged with writing every morning when I wake up without hearing the news, reading or talking, just to wake up a bit on the early side and write..as a discipline.
Discipline...now that is something I am quite good at during certain times. If i can make this writing practice a "physical" act as I do with my bike or the gym, as a way to make my mind powerful and limber and balanced, like my body, then it should be a bit easier...but writing...what will i write about? what will i say? what if I can't? what if no one understands? well, fine...it is not about that right now..it is about my process of "becoming a writer"...more and more...
I marvel at the process of writing, be it a sweeping epic or a self help book, or a biography. I don't really know how it works and sometimes when I read a book that speaks to me i think.."I could have written that, but how?" how does one write page after page and structure their thoughts and story? How does one do it? I am sure that there are classes and do's and dont's..but really, is it taught? Do we write what we know? Do we simply imagine? To this i have no answer yet, and maybe never will, but I think these days it is simply a matter of exercising the muscles in the mind and the firing synapses to the fingers...which in its own right is pretty wild...our mind is thinking and we are able to respond through our muscles and turn those thoughts into words through a mechanical surface and a pattern of action...i guess the one true class that actually helped me the most in all my years of school was my 8th grade typing class...yep...8th grade.
I remember my mom was always typing on an old brown two tone IBM Typewriter in the back nook of our Spanish castle that we grew up in. I often could depend on hearing that sound of the thwack thwack thwack ding whizz click click thwack thwack mostly early in the morning, late at night or sometimes in the odd moments of the middle of the day...typing away at her letters and stories and thoughts. The room was small with a small metal fold up desk and the makings of a bright white and flowing room you might find in an old chateau in France, with drapes, old lamps, one chair, baskets with flowers and stacks of paper..a place that always was there, waiting to be visited and waiting for the sounds of the writer who would command that wheel. I think that is where I may have tried my hand early on as a kid, having learned to type, however slowly, but wanting to imagine I could type as fast as my mom...The heavy keys and sound of the machine being on was a constant reminder that it was waiting for you to take charge. They should make that sound an option for the computer..the sound that a waiting typewriter makes when you turn it on, at least the electric ones in any case.
The journey of a writer is what i am fascinated with these days...and I am beginning that journey here and now. looking out of the window today into the rain and feeling cozy and ready to embark, as if I have set foot on a ship heading for the horizon and it is calm and beautiful, but deep down, you know that there will be long nights and storms and fear, but the sun will rise and the wind will blow and the sounds will carry you through...not unlike the tapping of the keys and whirring of the motor and the sound of the printer...not unlike the wind in our minds.
Love and Understanding.
Originally this was about my Escape...but these days, this is about the way of the world..the things that cross my mind, and maybe yours..the creative battles and truimphs and losses...it is about love and understanding of ourselves first and others second...it is about doing what we love and being afraid to try...and then trying...I am blessed with the readers on this blog and my family and loves and my friends....thank you..

After Daedalic Entertainment's flawed but appealing The Whispered World, it seemed there was hope for translations from this developer. They even hired an established UK writer (Steve Ince) to redraft the script into English English, adding in new jokes to make it work in this location. From the demo of A New Beginning, no such thing has taken place, making what is already an extremely clunky game feel like a parody.
This is in another part due to how incredibly sincere the Oh No Environment script comes across. Time travellers from the future, two weeks before a solar flare is to wipe out the remains of humanity, head back to our very own day to tell us it's time to start changing our polluting ways. So they set their time clocks for 2050 only to find out – OMG! – that's too late! The Earth will already be beyond repair by 2050! That's soon! Are you taking notice of the message?!
The demo gives you a sizeable chunk that establishes this story. You begin playing a retired older gentleman, grumbling around his summer house by the lake, clearly soon after he lost his wife. His name, oddly, is Bent. Bent is trying to fix his motor, once he's found where he drunkenly hid the key for his basement of course. Having a key for your own house would be too easy. Then he's interrupted by a time traveller, Fay, who tells him the tale of her and her team's failed trip to 2050, whereupon we start playing in flashback (flashforwardback?) as her instead. And in what could be a nice gimmick, Bent offers cranky disbelieving commentary on the events as the two chat about things in the future, their faces appearing in inserts over the main image.
Sadly what you actually get is an extremely scrappy experience of scanning screens for interactive objects and clicking on them all, interspersed with some terrible translations, idiotically read out verbatim by the cast. Every other sentence is intoned incorrectly, or worse, plain broken English, and so often it's something any actor worth his vocal cords would have questioned in the studio. But then the man offering the voice of Bent seemingly hasn't even heard of Sisyphus to be able to take a stab at pronouncing "Sisyphean".
The game also features that strange adventure trope of offering you choices that the character is shocked or confused by. "Why would I want to do that?" Er, because when I clicked it was one of the options. I love the idea that they, and so very many adventure characters over the years, tacitly acknowledge that their every decision is made based on the suggestions of some god-like player, but will sometimes refuse to obey the unseen force. It stands out here since the options they react to seem so incredible benign.
It certainly doesn't inspire me to pick up the full game. Because as nice as the animations and hand-painted scenes definitely are (apart from the more minor characters, whose comic book faces look like doodles in the back of someone's maths exercise book), the lack of care in translation makes it all feel so dismissive. It also doesn't help that no matter how sympathetic one may be with the environmentalist message, it's hard not to turn into Jeremy Clarkson in response to its being delivered in such an overtly patronising way.
Should you want to prove me wrong, you can get the 1GB demo from here. It gives you about 45 minutes of the game, depending upon how slowly you solve the puzzles I suppose.

You are not going to find too much mud in the Kalkaska / Mancelona area. There are a few spots in spring that get wet, but it's mostly sand. I've actually yet to even find a respectable mud puddle up there yet. I've got a big, deep (2-3 feet deep) puddle on the seasonal road about 200 yards past my cabin. It's scary as hell looking and keeps most people off the road. Little do they know it has a hard sand bottom and a mini van could actually get through if it didn't high center!
I plan on doing tons of wheeling / camping in the area this summer. I'll let you know if I run into anything good! |
February 16th, 2009, 04:39 PM | #5 |
Ok, let me know. I would like to find some thing a little challenging at least. I have been up their with a beater bronco, so i know some of the trails can get tight and my truck isn't exactly small.

I was just out that way about 2 weeks ago. Still quite a bit of snow on the trails in places but definitely pretty messy! There are definitely some good trails in that area. Just have to watch out for the lovely DNR..

Can't lose with 42s
If you are referring to the snowmobile trail that runs from Kalkaska to Traverse City I would stay off of it. It's illegal to be on with an ORV

I've been over near the St.Helen area, we have a place up there. I've looked the maps over, but there aren't a lot of legal places to wheel the trucks around. Trailhead mentioned above off of 72 is good for dirtbikes and quads ect. however.
We usually pack a lunch and head for the St.Helen/Grayling area to explore! Last edited by ojsdna744; May 18th, 2009 at 01:33 PM. |

The front Deutz-Fahr looks like a 3.60, if I had to guess. The left-hand Case IH is difficult to identify, but looks to be marginally smaller than the other one which was put up as a Maxxum 5100, if I am correct). Is the JD the same tractor as the one identified as a 3040 elsewhere? |

The center red one is a Case IH, it has an XL cab and 1980's hood style, 956XL or similar. |

Atlanta Dragway
COMMERCE, Ga., May 10, 2011 - U.S. Army Top Fuel driver Tony "The Sarge" Schumacher says he's not consumed with it, but he readily admits it crosses his mind on occasion.
The "it' Schumacher refers to is Atlanta Dragway, site of this weekend's Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Southern Nationals. It seems the winningest Top Fuel driver in NHRA history just can't seem to catch a break when he travels to the Peachtree State.
"Here I am with 67 career wins and I've never won at Atlanta Dragway," offered the Chicago-area resident while shaking his head in amazement. "It's one of those things in life you can't explain. I've won at every other track on the schedule, but I guess that place has some sort of spell on me or something."
Schumacher has come close to gaining entry to Atlanta Dragway's winner's circle. In 2000, he lost in the finals to Gary Scelzi and in 2008 he dropped a final round encounter to then Top Fuel rookie (and current Don Schumacher Racing/U.S. Army Racing teammate), Antron Brown.
Additionally, despite totaling 63 career poles (the most recent was two weeks ago at Royal Purple Raceway outside of Houston), Schumacher has never been the number one qualifier at the facility that was originally graded to house an airport.
"It's all very puzzling to me," added the seven-time world champion. "But, we do have another shot at that place this weekend. As is always the case with our Army Strong Soldiers, failure won't be an option for us. We're going to go down there and attack from the first qualifying session right through race day."
We're going to go down there and attack from the first qualifying session right through race day.
After notching a semifinal round appearance in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Spring Nationals, Schumacher remains optimistic his first victory of the season is right around the bend.
"It will happen - it's only a matter of time," he said. "This U.S. Army team doesn't know what the word quit means. We'll keep at it until everything falls into place. Mike Green is a tremendously talented crew chief who understands what it takes to win races and world championships. He will lead us down the right path, I will guarantee you that."
Schumacher heads for Atlanta Dragway holding fourth in the Top Fuel standings - he trails Del Worsham, Larry Dixon and Brown, respectively. With only five of 22 races in the books, he knows there's plenty of time left to set the wheels in motion.
"We want to be peaking around the time the Countdown to 1 arrives in September," he said. "To be honest, we're all positioning ourselves right now for that stretch run. Of course, it would be nice if we're sitting in the number one spot by the time we get to the playoffs. With so much racing left, that's definitely a reachable goal. We certainly have the car and team to get the job done."
