ebay is forcing me to clear out the closet
My most recent ebay find is the Michael Bastian DB Prince of Whales plaid cashmere topcoat you see pictured above. The inspiration for the rigg here goes to Derrick Miller of Barker Black. About a month ago I was at the grocer's when I saw him wearing a charcoal herringbone three button peak topcoat, navy pin suit, light blue gingham spread, black skull and bones tie, and those killer brown calf/suede spectators of his. The jolt of inspiration he gave me has considerably lightened the wallet so to help pay for it I'm clearing out my closet and placing some of my late greats up for auction on ebay. Items will include my italian woolrich arctic parka, my barbour bedale jacket, Michael Bastian shirting, a few great blazers and a ton of ties from brooks brothers and vineyard vines. I will be posting the links to these sales as I place them at auction. Feel free to check them out and bid! Here's a teaser for the stuff to come.

a shot of summer in the middle of winter
borrowed from thesartorialist
I know I'm getting ahead of myself but I'm off to Thailand in less than three weeks for my honeymoon and starting to think of clothes for warmer climates. This look really strikes me. I love the idea of dressing the db down with shorts although it has to be the right db, slim and unstructured. Great shoes as well. I was thinking of picking up a similar pair of Minnetonkas at the beginning of this winter but decided against it when I saw more than a few girls around the office wearing them.
fit first, more eye candy from the boot - Cesare Attolini
Mr. Dario Pandolfi, of the Neapolitan tailoring house Cesare Attolini.
To me, this is perfect. Like Scott said when he originally posted this photo on his site, the sleeve length is right but also the overall length and fit of the jacket is spot on. Short but not Thom Browne short. Nipped at the waist but not skin tight. I also love the collar of the shirt and the volume that the scarf (the deal breaker) adds to the whole image. Recently, my brother and I were discussing why we thought Italian men always looked so much, well, cooler then American men and I think it really boils down to this fit. Below are some images from the Attolini website. Enjoy and feel free to daydream about moving to Naples as I do on an almost daily basis!

the proper way to hang pants
What your clothing should be hung from
I'm willing to bet that most of the people who find their way to this weblog hang their jackets and shirts on wooden hangers. We care too much about our clothes not to. But do you all use trouser clamps to hang your pants? If not, you should. Hanging your pants with trouser clamps from the cuff is the best way to keep them wrinkle free as the weight of the waistband acts as a continuous gravitational iron. Right now I've got some cheap plastic ones a bought from IKEA that I've been looking to replace. Today, while browsing A Suitable Wardrobe, I saw a link to The Hanger Project which offers a nice, albeit pricey solution to my problem. We'll see if I pull the trigger.

Overall, the number of kids ages 5 years and younger treated in emergency departments for household cleaning product-related injuries fell 46% from 22,141 in 1990 to 11,964 in 2006 (P<0.001), found Lara B. McKenzie, PhD, MA, of Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, and colleagues.
Child-resistant packaging mandated for the most dangerous products -- furniture polish, drain cleaners, and oven cleaners -- appears to be partly responsible for the overall drop, McKenzie's group reported online ahead of print in the September issue of Pediatrics.
At the same time, injuries in young children sustained from cleaners contained in spray bottles did not decline; spray bottles were the most common source of exposure at 40.1%. The most common mechanism of injury was ingestion.
One reason is that spray bottles don't feature the same degree of safety mechanisms that other types of bottles and containers do, McKenzie noted in an interview.
"The locking mechanism on spray bottles isn't really child resistant and it may be easy for [children] to manipulate," she told MedPage Today.
McKenzie recommended that household cleaners and other poisonous substances be stored in locked cabinets after every use -- out of sight and out of reach.
"Simply having a safety mechanism on a product is not going to guarantee a child is not going to get into that product," she said in the interview. "It's resistant but not impossible to get into."
The trade association for cleaning product manufacturers, the American Cleaning Institute, responded to the results by reiterating the time-honored warning: Keep out of reach of children.
In a press release, the association urged parents to read the product label safety and usage information, then store products up and away.
The researchers examined household cleaner-related injuries treated from 1990 through 2006 at the network of roughly 100 hospitals that form the nationally-representative sample that reports to the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS).
They narrowed the search to cases that occurred among children ages 5 and younger -- since most poisonings occur in this age group -- largely because of small children's curiosity, mobility, and desire to put things in their mouths, McKenzie's group noted.
In the analysis, 1-year-olds accounted for 45.6% of cases, while children 1 to 3 accounted for 72.0% of injuries.
Cleaning products are consistently in the top five causes of pediatric poisoning exposure, given the amount of time young children spend in the home, the researchers noted.
In the current analysis, bleach represented the most common culprit (37.1%).
The next most common source of injurious exposure (30.4%) was from low-molecular weight hydrocarbons such as those found in pine oil products and spot removers; acids and alkalis, such as oven cleaners and toilet bowl cleaners; and dish or laundry detergents.
Ammonia products accounted for 2.5% of cases.
The analysis excluded exposures outside the home, those that involved submersion or allergic dermatitis, and those that resulted from shampoo and other personal cleaning products, boric acid, methacrylic acid, battery acid, or ammonia inhalants.
Overall, the rate of injuries from household cleaners dropped by 50.3% over the study period from 9.83 cases per 10,000 Americans ages 5 and under in 1990 to 4.88 in 2006 (P<0.01). One-year-olds had the highest injury rate, at 3.08 per 10,000.
Most household product injuries came from ingestion (62.7%). Not surprisingly, then, poisoning was the most common type of injury (68.4%), followed by chemical burns (15.9%) and dermatitis or conjunctivitis (10.4%).
Only 5.6% of cases required hospitalization. The one case fatality was excluded from the study since, McKenzie's group explained, NEISS is generally regarded as a poor source for identifying fatal injuries.
The researchers cautioned that their study likely underestimated the number of injuries sustained by young children from household cleaners because it did not include injuries treated outside of emergency departments.
Also, the data on the mechanism of injury, the source, and container came from case narratives, which may have been subject to reporting or interpretation errors, they noted.
This article was developed in collaboration with ABC News.
The researchers reported having no financial conflicts of interest to disclose.

The Australian government yesterday unveiled legislation to crack down on cybercrime in the wake of recent cyber attacks on multinational companies and institutions — from Google to the IMF and the US senate.
Cybercrime is a growing threat to individuals, businesses and governments, Australian Attorney-General Robert McClelland said, with the country's giant resource industry having warned recently of near-daily hacking attempts from offshore.
"The increasing cyber threat means that no nation alone can effectively overcome this problem and international cooperation is essential," McClelland said.
The laws, once passed by parliament, will give Australian police and intelligence agencies the power to force telecommunications companies to keep sensitive information that is normally stored only briefly before being destroyed.
They also aim to strengthen cooperation with overseas cybercrime agencies, giving police and security agencies better access to information stored overseas when investigating crimes committed locally using the Internet.
"Australia must have appropriate arrangements domestically and internationally to be in the best possible position to fight cybercrime and cyber security threats," McClelland said.
Cyber hackers have launched a series of attacks in recent weeks targeting not only US lawmakers, but also global companies and institutions, from Citigroup Inc to aerospace company Lockheed Martin, forcing governments and private companies to look at strengthening defenses.
Former US secretary of state Henry Kissinger earlier this month called for Washington and Beijing to reach an agreement to restrict cyber attacks and designate some areas as off limits.
Australia is already developing a cyber-defense strategy to combat hacking and electronic espionage, including the growing threat posed by state-sponsored cyber attacks. The blueprint strategy will be ready next year.
The country has experienced a wave of attacks on more than 4,000 businesses, including hacking attacks from offshore that bought down computer networks in the national parliament.
McClelland said the current cybercrime bills set the legislative framework for Australia to join the only binding international treaty on the problem: the Council of Europe Convention on Cybercrime.
That would widen international cooperation and help authorities from one country collect data in an overseas jurisdiction, as well as establishing an emergency network to provide immediate help to investigators globally.
More than 40 nations have either signed or become a party to the Convention, including the US, the UK, Canada, Japan and South Africa.
"This is an important step to increasing the powers of Australian investigators to effectively combat cybercrime with increased international cooperation," Australian Home Affairs and Justice Minister Brendan O'Connor said.

However, if anyone's interested, they have a full(?) set of all AHW designs at Himley Hall â I believe Broadfield House had first dibs when they cleared AHW's house after his death
Three sets of glasses: http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/displayimage.php?pos=-3027 I think these ones are 'Slim Jims', but I haven't been able to find out if they're AHW or not. I think they are, going from previous designs. :?: If they're Ravenhead, they'll be post 1960 when three colours were introduced. (McConnell)

Last week, I got an email asking me to review some Christmas music. The music is totally piano, which is really so dear to my heart since I "play" the piano as well as I can. The album is called A Solo Piano Christmas with all of the music arranged and performed by Chad Lawson.
Chad Lawson was five years old when he realized his dream for life was music. After music school, he formed the Chad Lawson Trio, releasing highly acclaimed jazz albums. Their music was featured on Starbucks retail radio and the television series Dawson's Creek. For seven weeks, their album, Unforeseen, was on the top of ten jazz charts. In 2007, Chad toured with Julio Iglesius, but realized that his dream was not playing with someone else, but to return to his own calling--the piano. In 2009, Chad recorded his first solo album, Set on a Hill. He has since recorded two more solo piano albums, The Piano and A Solo Piano Christmas.
When I fell in love with the piano at the age of ten, my piano teacher inspired in me a love of the sweetness that resonates from the piano. I have found A Solo Piano Christmas to be a stunning work of art. When I first listened to the Christmas music on this album, I was in seventh heaven. You can just feel the love of the piano behind the music being played. There is a tangible feeling of warmth associated with each measure. As Chad put it so eloquently in his email,
The CD is the "end of the night, kids in bed, glass of wine by the fire and breathe" solo piano Christmas CD. Exactly what I have found necessary during the stressful season.
I find that the music from A Solo Piano Christmas just resonates in my soul and creates a sense of surrounding peace. Not only are these Christmas songs perfect for the end of a long day, but also for a tranquil but sanguine Christmas dinner.
My husband took Chad's Christmas music with him the other day while he went out shopping. It was the only music that he listened to. He told me that it made the driving more pleasant. It was just so soothing listening to it.
There are twelve songs on A Solo Piano Christmas:
- What Child is This?
- The First Noel
- It Came Upon a Midnight Clear
- The Holly and the Ivy
- I'll Be Home for Christmas
- Sing We Now of Christmas
- While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks
- Joy to the World
- O Come, O Come Emmanuel
- God Rest You merry Gentlemen
- Jesu, Joy of Man's Desire
- It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year
A part of the dedication from the inside of the CD:
As with every note I am given, all glory, honor and praise is returned to the giver of life, creativity and grace; Jesus Christ. Each note and space between is for His glory and nothing more.Chad not only plays the piano, but composes beautiful melodies. I featured a composition of Chad's, "Reflections", on my Serene Sunday post. It is lovely music highlighted with the ocean in the background, and is from his first solo album, Set on a Hill.
With many thanks to Chad Lawson, I have two autographed copies of A Solo Piano Christmas CDs to giveaway to two lucky people! This giveaway will end on December 18, 2012, and is open to US residents only. Thank you once again, Chad!

thus far, two bowls of fat free cottage cheese....dinner will be ground turkey patty with mushrooms, onions, carrots and green beans...wine is also certain
yesterday: waffles with pb and strawberries lunch: leftover drunken fried noodles, chocolate milk, string cheese and raspberries. Spread over the course of several hours. dinner: whole wheat tortilla with super spicy hummus, turkey and spinach snack: apple with a bit of caramel dip
add to the lowfat cottage cheese; mushrooms simmered in french onion soup and a large salad...that will be it for the day other than wine
Trying to do a detox cleanse- so far nothing but coffee, water and green juice. I feel fabulous and NOT hungry!
Ugh. Nothing good and everything bad. Blaming it on an incredibly stressful exam coming up tomorrow. Hopefully back to normal tomorrow. Turns out trying to get into med school is the unhealthiest thing I have ever done- while I'm reading about drug therapies for hypertension and heart attacks I'm munching away on carbs and ice cream galore.
A turkey sandwich cheese sticks now, I'm getting into the potato chips and more whiskey. (I think my connection's screwing up, sorry if this doubles)
Heh, that's gotta be it. Although, it's been acting as if it doesn't send for about a month now. I'm wondering if it's something in my dinosaur connection here. Probably.
llamas; beware, graduate school was the worst thing that ever happened to my body (other than pregnancy)
7a 2 hashed brown patties, coffee w/skim 10a healthy choice tomato soup 1p ground turkey taco salad 3:30p more ground turkey taco salad 8p gonna be wine soon
today, much better than yesterday waffles with pb and strawberries string cheese chili skim hot chocolate+whipped cream to make me feel less sad after my exam whole wheat tortilla, hummus, turkey, and spinich strawberries soon (om nom nom)
1/2 club sandwich grilled cheese and fries the other half of the club sandwich a frou-frou organic special better than yours vanilla chocolate chip waffle from the yuppie store of hard to find and overpriced awesome. Possibly peanuts and snickerdoodles.
append a San Pellegrino blood orange. Hey, am I high, or did they make at one time a lemon or lemon-lime one? Maybe I'm thinking of the Croix one.

According to an update on Republique's Kickstarter page, Camouflaj has completely ditched the game's original 32-bit era pre-rendered backgrounds in favour of lovely-looking full 3D environments.
You can see the result of that change for yourself in the brand-new screenshots in our gallery (above).

Camouflaj has also posted a new development diary, which details some of the 'under the hood' improvements that have been made, and showcases some gameplay.
As you can see for yourself in the video above, you won't find any virtual control sticks or inaccurate on-screen buttons in Republique.
Instead, you'll control the game's camera with swipes, and instruct protagonist Hope with simple taps.
We'll let you know as soon as additional details are released. Are you backer? Let us know in the comments down there.

With that obscure reference to the old Dennis the Menace television program, we call your attention to these two ads for the Wilson Sporting Goods Company from 1962. Both feature Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame HB Paul Hornung and are from the September 1962 issue of Boys' Life magazine, the official publication of the Boy Scouts of America. So, we guess in a way, we could refer to Mr. Hornung as "Mr. Wilson."

Emmylou Harris - Me and Willie
Report copyright infringementWriter(s): Laurie Hyde
Lyrics powered by www.musixmatch.com
Me and Willie played in a country band
Seven long years together playing those one night stands
Used to say the booze and bars is going to wear him out
Hold On, a song he wrote tear your heart right out
Verse 2(Same chords as above)
We traveled the northern route and from the Greate Lakes to Monreal
Hitting all the honkytonks, I bet we played them all
Willie played to ease his soul and drank to ease his mind
I never understood how he played it so good while drinking himseld half blind. And you
wouldn't think a man so weak could be so
strong Take a crowd of rowdy drunks and
hush them with a song. And I'd
rather be singing my heart out in a dark and
dingy bar. Hitting those high notes with
Willie's sad guitar. And I'd
rather be singing a blues song singing sweet
and high Willie standing right by my side
playing country slide.
Verse 3
ME and Willie watched a lot of dreams die young.
Plans we made how quick they fade, fumbling one by one.
Willie never let it bother him and if he did, it didn't show.
You know he had a way of letting go amking the blue times old. And you
(use chords from 'break')
wouldn't think a man so weak, could be so strong.
Take th eblues right out of you and put them in a song.
I'd rather be singing... etc.
Verse 4
I left Willie in a bar in Marietta
Couldn't stand to watch the man I love drink himself to death.
Now I'm working in Ottawa and I'm doing well I guess.
You know the good life don't look so good from behind a desk. And I'd
rather be singing... etc

In all of life's tribulations, there is nothing so aggravating as being condescended to by an idiot. In last week's CNN debate in the Senate race between the astonishingly well-spoken Christine O'Donnell and the unfortunate-looking Chris Coons, O'Donnell had to put up with it from Coons for 90 minutes.

Q: Has Ryanair now stopped flying between Edinburgh and London? I am no longer able to find these flights on the booking page. Have we done something to upset Michael O'Leary?
Ryanair will fly you from Edinburgh to dozens of destinations. Yet even though Europe's biggest no-frills airline has big operations based at London's three low-cost airports – Gatwick, Luton and Stansted – it has never flown between the Scottish and English capitals. Why not? Because easyJet already flies between Edinburgh and that trio of airports. And the experience of the past 15 years demonstrates that low-cost airlines rarely compete directly between one airport and another.
Ryanair's chief executive, Michael O'Leary, is not averse to a scrap with Britain's biggest airline, easyJet, but only when he feels his turf is being invaded. When easyJet decided, six years ago, to launch flights from Gatwick to Ireland, Ryanair duplicated the routes, halved the fares and travellers cashed in until easyJet retired hurt. A similar battle ensued between Scotland and Northern Ireland when BA's low-cost start-up, Go, tackled easyJet from Belfast to Edinburgh and Glasgow. For many months, hardly anyone paid more than a fiver each way. The madness ended only when easyJet bought Go. Most of the time there is an uneasy coexistence: between Glasgow and Stansted, for example, easyJet flies from "real" Glasgow, while Ryanair operates from remote Prestwick.
The Edinburgh-London route enjoys plenty of terrestrial competition, too, with overnight train prices starting at £19 for Caledonian Sleepers, and bargains on Megabus and Greyhound coach services. And from May 22 – when East Coast Trains improves its timetable, at least for major stations – there will be even less reason to take the plane. A new early departure, branded the Flying Scotsman, leaves the Scottish capital at 5.40am, stops only at Newcastle and takes four hours to reach King's Cross. Going north, the last train from London leaves an hour later, at 7pm.

LONDON (MarketWatch) — U.K.'s FTSE 100 index pulled back on Wednesday after better-than-expected unemployment data sparked fears the Bank of England will raise interest rates sooner than expected.
The FTSE 100 index UKX, -0.06% shed 0.1% to close at 6,826.33, after swinging between small gains and losses.
First ever Papal message to Davos

The benchmark traded as high as 6,864.87 earlier in the day, but started pulling back as the Office for National Statistics said the joblessness rate in the three months to November dropped to 7.1%, closing in on the Bank of England's threshold of 7% for considering raising interest rates. In the three months to October, the joblessness rate was 7.4% and analysts had expected the November reading to come in at 7.3%.
The labor market in the U.K. has been closely watched since last summer, when the BOE provided its first forward guidance and said it would keep rates at a record low until the unemployment rate drops at least to 7%. The central bank said, however, in minutes from its January meeting — also out on Wednesday — that even if the 7% unemployment threshold were to be reached in the near future, there is no immediate need to raise the interest rate.
Discuss key earnings announcements before and after results come in. Learn more
Christian Schulz, senior economist at Berenberg, noted that with a fall in claimant counts in the December, the 7% level may have been hit at the end of 2013, more than two years earlier than the BOE expected when it initially introduced the forward guidance.
"The Bank of England is not under immediate pressure to act even if the 7% threshold is being hit. Wage growth remains very low and inflation reached the 2% target in December and could decline further in the short term," he said in a note.
The pound GBPUSD, +0.1925% jumped after the data, trading at $1.6577 compared with $1.6473 late Tuesday.
Among notable movers in London on Wednesday, shares of Sage Group PLC SGE, +0.40% rose 3.3% after the software firm said trading across all regions remains in line with expectations.
Banks added pressure on the U.K. index, with shares of Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC RBS, +0.41% RBS, +1.17% down 3.1%, Barclays PLC BARC, +0.33% BCS, +1.15% off 0.9% and heavyweight HSBC Holdings PLC HSBA, -0.06% HSBC, +0.47% 0005, -0.08% 0.7% lower.

Etagon Launches Database Standard for Oracle Cluster ArchitectureNovember 15, 2002 [From Globes [online]]
Rony Zarom, founder and current CEO of Israeli start-up Etagon, launched Origon 5000, his company's database standard, at the OracleWorld 2002 exhibition in San Francisco. Origon 5000, the first standard to operate on Oracle 9i cluster architecture, simplifies the installation and management of databases in an enterprise operating with cluster architecture. Zarom is a former Comverse senior executive and eXalink CEO.
Etagon's solution is designed for cluster technology applications, with a few inexpensive computers linked together and operating simultaneously in order to provide the computing power of a single expensive server. The solution, which is particularly useful for critical heavy applications, such as databases, constitutes a significant breakthrough, since it saves a great deal of money. In addition to saving tens, or even hundreds, of thousands of dollars on a server, the solution also saves on expensive personnel, and on installing and maintaining databases.

I am Gege. And okay, I admit it now, I am addicted to books. And book buying. And my husband does not like it. But confessions are necessary. And therapeutic. So, I'm showing here the view from under my desk where the recent loot is in temporary confinement until my husband goes out to play golf. When I, away from his prying eyes and judging heart, can put them into their rightful alphabetical places.
Shhh, don't tell my husband.
Shhh, don't tell my husband.

My stay at the InterContinental Lusaka was one of the best experiences that I have encountered in recent years. The courtesy, politeness and desire to provide outstanding service by all of the staff with whom I was fortunate to come into contact with was striking. The facilities are of a quality and range as I expect for an InterContinental, but it was was the enthusiasm of the staff to provide exceptional levels of service that will remain with me for a considerable time. If the opportunity ever arises, I will definitely return to the InterContinental Lusaka.

I am doing a project for my government class and I was wondering if you could answer some questions:
Your answers to my questions would be a very big help and your time spent on answering them is greatly appreciated! Thanks again!
Dear Jacky,
Here are my quick answers to your questions, there are too many questions to give longer answers:
What are the main deciding factors you go by to decide which candidate will get your vote for president? Basically if I like what the person stands for, based on their past voting record; if I think they are a viable candidate. For instance, I endorse the idea of third party candidates, but until they are a major force, I personally won't vote for them, which only says that I might endorse them, but I feel I want my vote to go toward someone who has a chance; and if I like the person. For instance, I like John McCain, but don't agree with a lot of what he stands for -- so it has to be more than one factor.
Do you consider yourself to be a Democrat or a Republican? Why? I am a registered Democrat, but I usually vote for at least one Republican candidate in each election cycle. I believe the Democratic party is more alligned with my values than the Republican party.
Are any of your family members a big influence on what your decisions will be on an election? My family is mostly Dem. and that certainly influenced me.
Does your lifestyle reflect how you vote in an election? Yes, I support social policies, I work for those policies, I recycle, I support school board elections, I oppose abstinence only education, I would never drive an SUV, etc. These values are certainly with how I vote, but it's not perfect.
Who do you think, as a president had the most impact on our government? Why? In my time, Ronald Reagan, but in a negative sense and we are still paying for it today. In time, from what I know either FDR or Truman.
Do you think people today are more or less involved in politics in contrast to the people who were around politics and our government when it started? Why do you think people are more or less involved? People are far less involved, just look at voting turn-out of eligiblevoters -- each election it gets progressively worse. In this past election only 39% of eligible voters voted.
What are your opinions on our current president, Mr. Bush? With the exception of extending unemployment benefits, I can't think of anything else I agree with Mr. Bush on. I think as President you are required to walk a fine line between asserting yourself and your values and representing the values of the majority of the country. Mr. Bush certainly doesn't do the latter. The majority of the country supports comprehensive sex education and opposes the proposed war in Iraq, yet he is pushing these forward.
What do politics mean to you? Politics is the rules by which we live by and thus each citizen has a requirement to be political. I always say if you don't vote you loose your right to complain again anything -- the price of gas, the condition of the highways, etc... It's inextricable to our lives and thus we should be more responsive to that.
How is your life as a feminist impacted by the more recent decisions made by our president? Feminism is my value system and so I think that answer is already reflected in the answers above.

Technology Endangers Common Sense
Probably ever since humans started to invent and use complex machinery to perform tasks, and certainly since the advent of the computer, a warning has accompanied the praise that greets each new innovation. The warning is that even though technology is a wonderful thing, it also has the potential to make people stupid. They might become incapable of doing sums with paper and pencil, or of entertaining themselves without television, or of finding their way around a city without a global positioning system. Worst of all, this novel suggests, they could become so enamored of computerized systems and the protocols that arise from them that they might not even be able to imagine scenarios caused by the malfunctioning of the technology. There is something insidious about computerization and the systems it spawns, the authors insinuate in this book. Thrilled by the promises of power and...

4 jaw chuck i need help
you said that gapless rings are detonation prone, why is that? Also did you mean that the top rings that come in gapless ring sets are pre-gapped. I have a 406sbc that is my daily driver but probably shouldn't be, it has a full spool 4.56 gears and a 3800stall. It goes 11's in street trim. Recently I ran into some fuel problems which made the car crap out at 6000rpm in third gear, about a month of this problem finally hammered my main bearings, so I'm rebuilding the motor. What rings do you think i should put in it , it has been run for about a year. It is 30 over, the bores were exact for each piston, they're SRP, and it was torque plate honed. It had Speed-Pro moly rings. Upon tearing it apart i noticed a good amount of oily crud on the pistons was this blowby? The guy at total seal told me to have it honed with a 280 grit stone to knock the glaze off and to put a TS1 race set of rings installed dry, preferrably with the quickseat powder? Do you have any input.
Sponsored Links | |||
Quick Seat Powder is made by Total Seal you rub it on the bores dry it supposed to instantly seal the rings. A populular engine builder in my area swears by it and so do other builders I've talked to. And I wasn't fibbing about my car it is the only vehicle I own, I'm 19 work at an auto parts store and am paying for Junior College by myself. Although friday nights in my car are great the weekday is a pain. although my car has a full interior and looks stock save for 31/2's in front and 2756015's out back it is a hassle because of no AC or heat and half the time my electric windows don't work, the power seat works all the time though. You would never guess my car has run as quick as 11.82 by the way it looks or sounds. Despite the fun, I need a beater truck. Thanks for the insight 4-Jaw
Yes i fixed the fuel problem it seems as though my 130 qph 14psi mechanical pump was to much for my stock fuel lines. Also the way it was plumbed was very questionable. Yes the cops no me due to my fair shair of street racing, I was never caught, I'd say I've raced at least 50 times on the street. After that stupid fast and the furious movie all the imports and turd monsters in my town started racing, there is so much police presence at the cruise nites that I'll never race on the street again, also at the speeds i'm going now it would be retarded to race on the street.
Very Wise. You only have to get the wits scared out of you once.
You might find it hard to find an engine builder who has 400 grit hones, most builders prefer a rougher bore because it covers mistakes and is foolproof. As long as you have nice round bores do it. You can do the same thing by using 400 grit sandpaper over the honing stones and deglaze that way, change paper often until the glaze is gone. Use aluminum oxide abrasive paper not emery cloth-emery cloths bond dissolves in oil. BTW formula 1 cars have bores that look like mirrors, there is no break-in to speak of. The problem with rough finishes with moly rings is it removes all the moly and your left with plain chrome, kind of defeats the purpose if you ask me. You are using 1/2"lines? Right? That kind of fuel flow needs the extra capacity of 1/2". Don't forget the pickup in the tank either, most stock pickups are pitiful. A fuel cell would be a good addition if you don't already have one, solves a bunch of problems all at once...not to mention being a whole lot safer. Getting a sender in the tank can be a problem with fuel cells, I like a sight glass. Looks cool too. Good idea to get a beater, with the fuel mileage your getting you could pay for two educations. I still can't believe I once drove a car everday that got 6 miles to the imperial gallon, lots of fun though.
She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. I've made a lot of special modifications myself. Han Solo |

Albiert: On 'Moneyball' and 'Soccernomics'
From SABR member Gaetan Albiert at Honus.fr on November 1, 2012:
In June 2012, the French version of the book Soccernomics was released. Soccernomics is [a version of] Moneyball for football. ... The book makes numerous references to the book by Michael Lewis, or more precisely the phenomenon of "Moneyball," and in particular the management by Oakland A's General Manager Billy Beane.
The book is the result of joint work of Simon Kuper, a British journalist at the Financial Times, and Stefan Szymanski, Research Fellow in Economics of Sport (French translation was provided by Bastien Drut, a doctorate in economics at the Université Paris X). On the same model as Moneyball, he questioned the practices of modern football, its traditions full of certainties and errors on those who have tried or are trying, like Bill James and Billy Beane in baseball, to develop this sport to a better use of statistics in the context of recruitment, sports management or in the game itself.
Reading Soccernomics [will] delight baseball fans, football fans, and those who love both sports. But to grasp a little more about the book and the parallels [between] baseball and football we went to meet one of its two authors, journalist Simon Kuper, who has lived in Paris for many years.<snip>
In your book Soccernomics, you make frequent reference to the phenomenon that occurred in Moneyball baseball through management by Oakland A's Billy Beane. Was your book has been inspired by Moneyball?It came out to support our thesis. I had not read the book when I started writing Soccernomics. Freakonomics, another American book, instead was our inspiration to give us ideas and improve football. But when I read Moneyball at the beginning of the project, I thought "wow, the problems of baseball are almost the same as football! "With very traditional coaches who refuse the provision of statistics. It was almost the same thing!
Your co-author Stefan Szymanski had already worked on the baseball angle?
The economics of sports has increased much more in the U.S. than here in Europe for several decades. American teams have always tried to earn more money. While in Europe, teams have always tried not to lose too much money. This is another idea. The economics of sports is more important there and Stefan has many contacts with American colleagues. He thought the differences between the American and European sports. It is not specialized in baseball but in football. He now works at the University of Michigan because we know a lot about the economics of sports in baseball, American football, but we know nothing or almost in European football.

A bone spur (an extra bone growth) can make walking and wearing shoes painful. Spurs may grow on top of any of the midfoot joints. These spurs may form a bump on the top of the foot. Bone spurs may also form on your toe. Sometimes a spur can form where the Achilles tendon connects to the heel bone. There are several nonsurgical treatments for bone spurs, but if these are not effective, surgery can be considered.
The heel spur is removed, and the Achilles tendon is repositioned. Your foot will be placed in a cast. To keep you from bearing weight on this foot, you will need crutches for several weeks.
To get rid of the bump, the spur is removed on both sides of the joint. You can bear weight on your foot right after surgery. You will need to wear a surgical shoe for a few weeks.
Removing a toe spur involves making only a small skin incision. A tiny power rasp (similar to a dental burr) or a special file is inserted to smooth the bone. After surgery, your foot will be bandaged, but you can walk on it right away. In some cases, you may need to wear a surgical shoe for a few weeks.

Lukas Brunner and the World's First Travel Harp Guitars! by Gregg Miner |
"The Natural Sound of Innovation" The slogan of Switzerland's Brunner Guitars sums up founder Lukas (Luke) Brunner's guiding force. Finding innovative yet practical solutions to the design and construction of guitars is something he considers both a privilege and a gift. During his youth, Luke apprenticed with a furniture maker after hanging out in his dad's custom furniture shop from his earliest years. At age 14 he started playing guitar, and with his woodworking experience, his interest in guitar building began to grow. By 1992, now age 18, he built his first guitar, a dreadnaught. Brunner Guitars soon opened in 1995 when Luke started building guitars full time at the age 21. His experience as a cabinetmaker and occasional guitar builder prepared him for the challenge and enabled him to become established, but it was his invention of the Outdoor Guitar that really got the ball rolling. He now works with a small team of three additional workers and can "batch-build" high end guitars to sell for very attractive prices. |
In 2000, the business moved to its current location in the town of Lavin in the incredibly beautiful valley of Engadin. | |
> What in the world am I doing in L.A.?! |
At the other end, a special
captive nut and a zero fret allow the strings to remain aligned,
while the
locking Gotoh tuners help keep things consistent while the neck is off.
All three features combine seamlessly with the Snap-On neck to provide
near tuning-free reassembly. Pretty cool, so far, huh? We
could probably stop there and call it a success... But how to get decent tone out of this portable "kit" guitar? Ahhh, Luke's next bit of wizardry… |
The Flying Top In 2002, Luke invented his unique "Flying Top." Thinking about how standard X-bracing divides the top into different vibrating areas, he brainstormed on a way for the top to "float" more freely and thus vibrate more evenly at all frequencies. |
As I understand it,
there are two key components to Luke's design, both rather ingenious. First, the top is strengthened with a smaller, thin piece of book-matched spruce that is feathered at the edges. With the grain of the center piece at a slight angle to the top, the two pieces are glued together in an arched press for even greater strength. |
The Birth of the
Outdoor Harp Guitar In June of 2008, French harp guitarist Philippe Fouquet (at right) wrote me about a new harp guitar he was ordering. Philippe, an excellent steel-string fingerstyle guitar player had been using an old kontragitarre strung with silk and steel. He was desperate for a Dyer-style instrument to begin fully exploring his harp guitar technique and compositions, but was finding it hard to invest in the sort of instrument he knew was needed. What he decided on was a custom instrument that he had talked Luke Brunner into building for him. Luke would need to modify his small, portable Outdoor Guitar into a doubleneck version, with the second neck able to handle six sub-basses tuned all the way down to low E! I know – I didn't believe it either. |
For the harp guitar version of the Outdoor Guitar, Luke added a
third layer of thin feathered wood to the top (grain aligned with
the top, angle to the middle piece). This is to support the extra
tension of the sub-bass strings. As Luke explains, this 3-layer
"top sandwich" is about 6mm thick in the area between bridge and
soundhole, feathering out to about 2mm along the outside. He
likens the theory to the principal of a Hi-Fi speaker cone. The final piece of the puzzle is the distinctive rosewood bridge plate (nice and clean - no bridge pin holes!). Primarily this was developed to stiffen up the top in the bridge area and to add more mass to the centre of the top, which provides more sustain. Again, lightness and flexibility along the edge - in tandem with the freely vibrating top - are the keys to the success, only achieved after much innovative experimentation. By the way, if I've given the impression that I am responsible in any way for this unique instrument, I didn't mean to. All credit should go to my friend Philippe Fouquet, who had the conviction and willingness to break the "hollow-arm harp guitar" paradigm, and to Luke Brunner, for so brilliantly realizing these instruments. Innovation indeed! P.S. We're almost done..... |
OK, OK! So how do they sound?! Frankly, they are somewhat mind-boggling. For the few who have played them so far (including none other than Stephen Bennett) the tone and projection are a complete surprise. Both Stephen and I agreed that had we not each owned a couple of fantastic harp guitars, we would not mind in the least touring, performing or recording with one of these (the string spacing at nut and bridge – less than we're used to on our Dyers - being our one and only complaint). Philippe also loves his and is starting to concertize and record even now. But you don't have to take our word for it - click over to the instrument listing at Harp Guitar Music for a direct A/B comparison with a vintage Dyer and see for yourself. As The Monkee's said, "I'm a Believer." |

The Ghost of Christmas Past
this wiki
The Ghost of Christmas Past is a character from the novel, A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens.
Role in the story
The Ghost of Christmas past was the first of the three spirits (after the visitation by Jacob Marley) that haunted the miser Ebenezer Scrooge in order to prompt him to repent. He showed him scenes from his past that occurred on or around Christmas, in order to demonstrate to him the necessity of changing his ways, as well as to show the reader how Scrooge came to be the person he was and his particular dislike for Christmas – most of the events which negatively affected Scrooge occurred around the Christmas holiday season.
According to Dickens' novel, the Ghost of Christmas Past appears to Scrooge as a white-robed, androgynous figure of indeterminate age. He had on his head a blazing light, reminiscent of a candle flame. He carried with him a metal cap, made in the shape of a candle extinguisher. While the ghost is often portrayed as a woman in the most dramatic adaptations, Dickens describes the Ghost of Christmas Past only as "it".
The Ghost of Christmas Past first showed Scrooge his old boarding school where he was deserted by his father who bore a grudge against because his mother died in his childbirth. Then he was shown the day when his beloved, younger sister Fan picked him up from there after repeatedly asking their father (described as a cold and unloving man) if he could come back home. Next, Scrooge was shown an episode from his time as an apprentice to Mr. Fezziwig, which started merely three days after the above and *only* visit home after so many years without. The spirit also showed Scrooge the day when, as a young man, he compelled Belle, his fiancée, to end their relationship as his increasing obsession with his money caused him to alienate her. Scrooge never asked Belle to break off their engagement, but he did not protest against her decision. Finally, the Ghost showed him how she married and found true happiness with another man (this part is often skipped in adaptations of the story). After this vision, Scrooge, out of anger, extinguished the Ghost of Christmas Past with his cap and found himself back in his bedroom.
