Hyd. Roller Lifter Check.....Chech
What is the best method to check a set of used roller lifters?
I had read an article on this somewhere but not sure where....I did a search and turned up a thread on rebuilding them but the pics. were broke and there was some talk about how that wasn't a rebuild,it was just a good cleaning and inspection.The article I read had mentioned something about rolling each one either down your fingernail or arm (cant remember which) and if it catches or stops rolling.....there bad......but like I said I cant find that article and was wondering if any of you have your own tips or tricks to this.....
I am thinking about just getting a set used with the rollers,dog bones,and spider so I can have the roller set up and wanted to check all of the rollers so I can just replace the ones that are worn or bad......I figured that this would be the most cost efficient way of converting......
GM :thumbup:
really, at $100 a set running new LS7 lifters is about the cheapest most reliable way to go- they're also more advanced than the older chevy lifters.
They only have a simple part in them once the lock is removed that retains the plunger. The roller wheel is easily checked just to make sure it spins freely and doesn`t have any low spots. What you read is pretty much all you do, remove the retainer clip and remove the guts then clean it, reassemble and that`s it.
1) As Techinspector pointed out there are three bosses on top of the center oil galley to secure the spider.
2) The lifter bosses are about .3 to.4 inch taller than those of FT blocks to support the long bodied V8 roller lifter.
3) The block face in the timing case has internal bosses that are drilled and tapped for bolting a thrust plate, these are features a FT block doesn't have.
A flat tappet block can be modified to use OEM roller parts but not exactly the way the factory builds them. The tricks are:
1) The main oil galley is drilled end to end to increase its diameter by 1/16th to 5/32nds inch to compensate for bolts that will pass thru it. Where the roller block has three bosses on the main oil galley, the FT block is drilled and tapped thru the oil galley for 3 5/16ths bolts. A stack of washers can be used to substitute for the bosses to position the spider. The bolts are measured for where the bottom threads penetrate the oil galley and top threads just meet the ID of the galley. Each bolt than has the threads that would sit in the middle of the oil galley filed away to reduce their interference with the oil flow. These bolts must be sealed with Loctite, you sure don't want any of them coming out.
2) The V8 roller lifters are not sufficiently supported by their bores, the solution is to use the shorter roller lifters from the 4.3 liter V6 engine. This will also take the longer stock flat tappet length push rod, but check your build to be sure you're getting the proper sweep from the rockers on the valve stems if not you'll have to get a length push rod that corrects the sweep.
3) The OEM roller cam has an extended nose for the thrust plate, which takes a different cam gear/timing set from flat tappet blocks. To get all this together reshape a factory thrust plate till its round so it will fit between the OEM type roller timing gear and the block. A timing set from a non-OEM roller engine whether a flat tappet or aftermarket roller tappet conversion will not work. It must be a timing set compatible with a factory roller cam. Retention of the cam is accomplished with the thrust button familiar from aftermarket roller cams.
FT means flat tappet in this case, not Ford Truck as in FE/FT Ford engines.
O.K.,sorry for the confusion but the block is a 87 350 that is set up from factory for a roller but came with a hyd. flat tappet cam and does have the bosses for the spider(just need drilled and tapped) along with the holes to bolt on a cam retainer plate.
here is a pic.
now back to the question at hand, How to check the used roller lifters to see which ones are all right and which ones need to be replaced?
GM :thumbup:
roll tehm in your fingers, if you feel or hear anything that feels like grit or sand is in there then throw them out. I don't kno wwhy you wouldn't just get the newer better lifters though, for the peace of mind alone its worth it.
Yea.....I see your point,I was going to just buy everything in a set that were used (spider,dog bones,cam retainer plate and lifters)but what I think I might do now is wait and see if I can find everything used except for the lifters and just buy them new.....so you say the LS7 ones are good EAH? I will have to check them out. Have a part #?
GM :thumbup:
This post has been merged with the other similar post, carry on gents.....
These are listed as a set for the LS1 ans LS6 models(PN/12499225) but dont mention the LS7, so I wonder if they are the same? price is about right @ $119.95......
Given a new set of GM roller lifters can be had for 120 bucks, it seems the cost and effort of digging a failed lifter out isn't worth the risk of unknown used lifters.
Correct part number- same lifter for LS2 and LS7 NOT the original LS1 lifter BTW.

XTS road trip.
I did a 1000 mile round trip and the car perform better than I expected it to. First the ride was very smooth cruising @75 mph the car rode like it was @40. The surprise for me was when had to floor it to merge in rush hour city traffic or when I ran it up to 95 mph it did both effortless. So those concern about lacking power where unfounded. Trip was LA to San Fransisco and gas mileage average was only 24mpg I was hoping to do better. But with only 2000 miles on car maybe it will be higher the next time. One factor that was really cool was the compliment from Beemers and MB owners on how nice the car look. Only negative was car washes in Frisco are ridiculous expensive and the 49ers lost the game we went to see. I paid $31.95 for hand wash and tire dressing and the place was packed, You got love the young urban professional they got money to burn.

Re: XTS road trip.
That's good feedback. How smooth is it when accelerating from a stop? Any hesitation before it kicks in?
My current vehicle has the same engine, and most times there is hesitation or a jerk no matter how easily the accelerator pedal is pressed. Dealer says that is normal. Since we are considering an XTS, we wouldn't want the same performance.

Re: XTS road trip.
Mine has no jerk what so ever. It is very smooth. My 07 STS was not even close to this car in how smoooth the drive train and engine are. The only jerks I experience are the other drivers on the road.

Gotcha!...Security Testing for Mission Critical Applications
A local television station provides a Web service that allows schools and businesses in the area to easily enter information on closures due to bad weather. The information then is displayed as a crawl along the bottom of the television screen. Some kids hack into the site and declare their school closed for the day, and it's immediately shown on everyone's television! It's a cute story. Now let's imagine that these same kids hack the prices on your eCommerce site or obtain access to sensitive customer records on your company Web site. This time the story is not so laughable. Mike Andrews shares his favorite top ten holes in Web site security including "SQL injection" and "cross-site scripting," shows examples of each, and discusses the effects these security breaches can have on your site. Fortunately, the number of attacks is rather small and easy to repair-if you know where to look. But, if undetected, these security vulnerabilities open your vital systems to thieves, scoundrels, and worse.

Algerian special forces stormed a gas plant in the Sahara to wipe out Islamist militants and free hostages from at least 10 nations. Bloody chaos ensued, leaving the fate of the fighters and many of the captives uncertain.
Duelling claims from the military and the militants muddied the world's understanding of an event that angered Western leaders, raised world oil prices and complicated the French-led military operation in neighbouring Mali.
At least six people, and perhaps many more, were killed – Britons, Filipinos and Algerians. Terrorised hostages from Ireland and Norway trickled out of the In Amenas plant, families urging them never to return. Dozens more remained unaccounted for – Americans, Britons, French, Norwegians, Malaysians, Japanese, Algerians and the fighters themselves.
The United States sent an unmanned surveillance drone to the BP-operated site, near the border with Libya, but it could do little more than watch the intervention on Thursday. Algeria's army-dominated government, hardened by decades of fighting Islamist militants, shrugged aside foreign offers of help and pushed on alone.
With the hostage drama entering its second day Thursday, Algerian security forces moved in, first with helicopter fire and then special forces. The government said it was forced to intervene because the militants were being stubborn and wanted to flee with the hostages.
The militants, led by a Mali-based al-Qaeda offshoot known as the Masked Brigade, suffered losses in the assault on Thursday, but succeeded in garnering a global audience.
Even violence-scarred Algerians were stunned by the brazen hostage-taking on Wednesday, the biggest in northern Africa in years and the first to include Americans as targets. Mass fighting in the 1990s had largely spared the lucrative oil and gas industry that gives Algeria its economic independence and regional weight.
The hostage-taking raised questions about security for sites run by multinationals that are dotted across Africa's largest country. It also raised the prospect of similar attacks on other countries allied against the extremist warlords and drug traffickers who rule a vast area of desert across north-west African countries.
Casualty figures in the Algerian standoff varied. The remote location is hard to reach and was surrounded by Algerian security forces who, like the militants, are inclined to advertise their successes and minimise their failures.
"An important number of hostages were freed and an important number of terrorists were eliminated, and we regret the few dead and wounded," Algeria's Communications Minister, Mohand Said Oubelaid, told national media, adding that the "terrorists are multinational", coming from several different countries with the goal of "destabilising Algeria, embroiling it in the Mali conflict and damaging its natural gas infrastructure".
The official news agency said four hostages were killed on Thursday – two Britons and two Filipinos.

Dodgers unveil throwback alternate road uniforms
Usually when a team announces that they're introducing an alternate jersey, it's best to brace for the worst, whether it means garishly colored pajama tops or terrifying if well-meaning camouflage. Fortunately, the Dodgers didn't get too radical with the road jerseys they unveiled on Thursday -- in fact, they're throwbacks.
The alternate version of the Dodgers' road jerseys will be gray, just like their regular ones, but will bear the team's name in the same familiar script that adorns their white home jerseys. In other words, they'll be essentially the same as the version they wore in 1958, their first year after moving from Brooklyn, and from 1970-98, before they re-introduced the city name on their roadwear. They had previously worn "Los Angeles" on their road jerseys from 1959-69, and they will continue to do so on most occasions.
One notable occasion when the alternate jerseys will be worn when they're the "away" team is during their season-opening trip to Sydney, Australia. They'll play an exhibition against Team Australia on March 20, then will open the regular season with a pair of games against the Diamondbacks on March 22 and 23.
Despite having one of the majors' most iconic uniforms — for my money, they're the best, but having been raised a Dodgers fan, I'll concede bias on this topic — the team has worn alternate unis in the past. In 1999, they introduced a blue top with an alternate cap that ESPN uniform expert Paul Lukas termed "garish." In 2011, they wore powder blue tops with "Brooklyn" across the front for six home games, an homage to uniforms their Brooklyn forebears wore for some night games in 1944 — though not the reflective satin of the originals, which were uncomfortably hot to wear and difficult to clean. The powder blues were chosen by fans in a vote, beating out pinstripes from 1911 and a powder blue block B logo from 1931. They could have gone a similar route this time around, instead giving fans a chance to see the checkered unis from 1916 that made it look as though they were wearing graph paper or the kelly green caps and accents from 1937, the year before they switched to the now-classic royal blue script. The new alternates aren't radical, and in fact they may be so subtle that they fly below the radars of fans who don't follow the team's every move. Some may think that defeats the purpose of having an alternate in the first place, but history shows that in this department, less is definitely more.

IN BLANK STARE NEWS..BUSTED: Florida Congressman Busted in Cocaine Sting
BUSTED: Florida Congressman Busted in Cocaine Sting
Rob Ford may have a new American counterpart. Florida Congressman Trey Radel was busted in a Washington, D.C. sting and is being changed with cocaine possession, according to a senior Drug Enforcement Administration official.
According to the official, the congressman was fingered by a dealer who was arrested by members of a federal task force. Working with the dealer, the feds set up a sting and Radel was arrested on October 29th when he bought some cocaine.
Radel is set to appear on Wednesday in District of Columbia Superior Court to face the charge of misdemeanor cocaine possession. If found guilty, he faces a maximum 180 days in prison and/or a $1,000 fine.
Radel said in a statement on Tuesday, "I'm profoundly sorry to let down my family, particularly my wife and son, and the people of Southwest Florida. I struggle with the disease of alcoholism, and this led to an extremely irresponsible choice. As the father of a young son and a husband to a loving wife, I need to get help so I can be a better man for both of them."

Where I stayed
As I was walking to board after passing through the gate, a woman behind me asked about the book I was reading on Costa Rica. I told her about my trip and she was very interested in Adventure .Center. She is also traveling to Costa Rica later, after Florida. After getting off the plane, she caught up with me because she had forgotten the name & then she entered it onto her phone. We ended up stopping at a place to eat & getting spinach quiche. It turns out she is from Chatham and volunteers at their food coop. While I was paying for my quiche, my visa card got denied.
I thought since I had some time before my flight, I would call Chase. I tracked down a person to read the telephone number off my credit card and called. Hmmm, customer service. Chase needs some training
So I then asked to speak to someone else and got a woman who started to repeat this whole business. While on hold, I thought that probably the most expeditious approach was to pay off the balance and I would have another $1000 to use in emergencies. I wasn't planning on spending a huge amount and have my other credit card but it is American Express and not as widely accepted. This lady was more amendable and then we agreed that they could shift some of the credit line from one of my other cards and I would have it immediately available. So she gave me over to another young man who did this - another few minutes on hold while musac plays and I am in the noisy airport terminal. I definitely prefer the excitement of seeing wild animals to dealing with banks
Kara was kind enough to take me to the airport for my 12:30 flight. My adventure was in an Atlanta stopover and I landed in San Jose, Costa Rica about 9 pm (Central and Costa Rican time). I had another little adventure with the ATM machine, but other than the security covering on the keypad that made it hard to find the "1," my biggest problem was converting the currency. There are about 500 colones to a dollar and originally I didn't put in enough zeroes for the amount I wanted - getting confused about whether commas were periods or vice versa. I got some money and used up a big chunk of it on a taxi to the hotel but since it was late, I didn't feel like trying to negotiate buses. So here I am in my room with wi-fi. Perfect! And a towel swan - I love them. An early night and then exploring San Jose tomorrow.

Beauty Review: Viviscal Maximum Strength
December 29, 2012
A few years ago, I chopped off my hair à la Victoria Beckham. I loved it for the first day or two and then immediately wanted long hair again! I've now been growing it out for just under two years and it's finally getting to be what I'd consider "long"... or at least longish. My goal hair length is to have it down to my elbows and all one length, something that will take me at least another full year of growth to achieve. My hair has always grown slowly. On top of that, each individual strand is really fine so I'm more prone to breakage than a lot of other people. It's been quite the fight to even get it to where it is today!
I've tried a lot of different hair vitamins, and regularly take Iron (I'm anemic), B12, Kelp and Biotin, but like to keep my eye out for hair health and growth supplements that I haven't tried before. Viviscal is a hair nourishment system sold all over the world and has spectacular online reviews, so I jumped at the chance to give it a go myself.
I'm only a few days into the system (these pictures were taken the first day I started) and I'm really excited to start seeing results. Other reviewers claim to have seen thicker hair after anywhere between 1-3 months, and others say it's helped them avoid damage and breakage in their quest for below-the-shoulder hair. I'm hoping for all of the above and will be posting about this product again at the end of my first month with an update.
As for the $59.99 price tag, it's a little hefty but I'm absolutely willing to pay that much if a product works. You take two tablets a day, once in the morning and again at night, so 60 lasts for 30 days or a month. I've been cutting back on the number of times in a year I highlight my hair (it's incredibly damaging) so I see no problem with investing in my hair's growth with the leftover cash.
If you have any hair growth tips, please leave them in a comment! I'd love to hear them and include them in a future post (and credit you, of course).

This Preserve is the site of Tel Dan, a tel being an archaeological mound that contains numerous levels of ancient civilizations who built on top of one another. The walk through the woods takes you to the site where King Jeroboam built an altar to prevent the northern ten tribes from going to Jerusalem to worship (the story is found in 1 Kings 12)
From there, we went on to the area known in Jesus' time as Caeserea Philippi. Jesus took His disciples there for a retreat and talked to them about who He was as described in Matthew 16. When you see the topography of this area, it adds to your understanding of what Jesus said to Peter when He declared that Peter and his confession of Christ are the rock upon which the church would be built.
We walked from the site to a Lebanis Restaurant (yes, the spelling is correct) for another lunch of falafel, schnitzel or schawarma. We ate outside next to a running brook that feeds into the Jordan. From there, we drove to Banyas National Park, which figured prominently in the Israeli wars with Syria in 1967 and 1973. Our guide David shared stories of being a tank platoon commander in his generation's war with Lebanon in 1981 (every generation here seems to have their own war). David was transparent in telling about the horrors of war and the price Israel has paid to defend itself from its enemies since 1948.
Along the way in the bus, David also talked to us about modern Israeli history and the relationship between Jews and Christians in Israel, which has not been good since the first century
We drove back down from the north to Tiberias and went to the Diamond Factory, a jewelry store here in Tiberias. 60% of the world's diamonds are cut here and the Factory gives you a brief tour and shows a movie about the diamond industry. Of course then you come out into a showroom where you can buy discounted jewelry that is duty free when you return to the States.
Tonight eleven of us are going to a kosher Chinese restaurant near the hotel, which is a custom of mine since I first came to Israel in 1994. Tomorrow it is time to check out of Tiberias and move on to Jerusalem for the remainder of our time in Israel. On the way up to Jerusalem, we are going to visit the Roman ruins at Bet Shean, the Qumran region where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found and take a swim in the Dead Sea itself. You won't want to miss tomorrow's pictures. In the meantime, here are some pictures from today. Enjoy and please know that all on the team are doing well, happy and learning a lot.

The Clarion HTML version
16. The Strategist
"Never write with a hot pen." Thus runs one of McGuire Ellis's golden rules of
journalism. Had his employer better comprehended, in those early days, the Ellisonian
philosophy, perhaps the "Heredity" editorial might never have appeared. Now, as it lay
before him in proof, it seemed but the natural expression of a righteous wrath.
"Neither Kathleen Pierce nor her father can claim exemption or consideration in this
instance," Hal had written, in what he chose to consider his most telling passage. "Were it
the girl's first offense of temerity, allowance might be made. But the city streets have
long been the more perilous because of her defiance of the rights of others. Here she runs
true to type. She is her father's own daughter. In the light of his character and career, of
his use of the bludgeon in business, of his resort to foul means when fair would not serve,
of his brutal disregard of human rights in order that his own power might be enhanced, of
his ruthless and crushing tyranny, not alone toward his employees, but toward all labor in
its struggle for better conditions, we can but regard the girl who left her victim crushed
and senseless in the gutter and sped on because, in the words of her own bravado, she
'had a train to catch,' as a striking example of the influence of heredity. If the law which
she so contemptuously brushed aside is to be aborted by the influence and position of her
family, the precept will be a bitter and dangerous one. Much arrant nonsense is vented
concerning the 'class-hatred' stirred up by any criticism of the rich. One such instance as
the running-down of Miss Cleary bears within it far more than the extremest
demagoguery the potentialities of an unleashed hate. It is a lesson in lawlessness."
Still in the afterglow of composition, Hal, tinkering lightly with the proofs, felt a hand on
his shoulder.
"Well, Boy-ee," said the voice of Dr. Surtaine.
"Hello, father," returned Hal. "Sit down. What's up?"
"I've just had a message from E.M. Pierce."
"Did you obey a royal command and go to his office?"
"Neither did I."
"With you it's different. You're a younger man. And Elias M. Pierce is the most
powerful—um—er—well, as powerful as any man in Worthington."
"Outside of this office, possibly."

Have Ford Questions? Ask a Mechanic for Answers ASAP
HiCustomer Thank you for asking your question on JustAnswer.
The button should cycle the light off when pushed again.If it feels stuck like it has no movement when pushed then most likely it is stuck down; if you can't get it to free up then it will need to be replaced.You can try heating it (not too much) with a hair dryer. If it stuck because of a liquid residue this will help soften it and maybe it will free up.

Saturday, April 6 -- vs. California, Virginia (Berkeley, Calif.), 9:30 a.m. PDT
Event Schedule | Live Results
Social Media: Facebook | Twitter
After a week off from competition, the University of Michigan men's track and field team will compete against California and Virginia in a scored triangular meet on Saturday (April 6) at the University of California. Field events will begin at 9:30 a.m. PDT, while the running events will get underway at noon PDT at Edwards Stadium.
Several Wolverines will make their outdoor season or career debut in the tri-meet, as the second day of competition at the Florida State Relays (March 22-23) was rained out after completing just two events.
The idea behind organizing the tri-meet with Cal and Virginia was to bring together three of the top academic and athletic public institutions in the nation for a competitive, scored event.
The tri-meet will mark Michigan's first and only head-to-head competition of the outdoor season. The Wolverines competed in a dual meet during the indoor season, where they defeated Michigan State, 88-74, at Grand Valley State. Michigan last competed in head-to-head outdoor competition with The Dual vs. Ohio State being contested each year from 2008-11.
The tri-meet will mark the first of two trips to California for the Wolverines this season. Michigan will return to California in two weeks for the annual Mt. SAC Relays (April 18-20).
Thirteen of U-M's distance runners will open the season after not making the trip to Florida State. It will mark the first outdoor competition since the 2011 Big Ten Outdoor Championships for junior/sophomore Nick Kern (Ann Arbor, Mich./Pioneer), who will join senior Zach Ornelas (Cedar Park, Texas/Vista Ridge) in the 3,000-meter steeplechase. Ornelas finished 14th at the Big Ten Outdoor Championships in the steeple a year ago and advanced to the NCAA East Preliminary Rounds, while it will be Kern's first collegiate steeple competition.
Sophomore/freshmen Mason Ferlic (St. Paul, Minn./Mounds Park Academy) and August Pappas (Chelsea, Mich./Chelsea) will each make their collegiate outdoor debuts in the 5,000-meter run. Ferlic and Pappas each excel at the longer distance races, as they were members of U-M's travel squad during the 2012 cross country season. Junior/sophomore Mark Beams (Vicksburg, Mich./Vicksburg), who also excels at the longer distances which are not contested indoor, will also appear in the 5,000-meter run. Beams finished 10th in the 10,000-meter run at the conference meet a year ago and was Michigan's first finisher at the 2012 NCAA Cross Country Championships, which is a 10K race.
Junior Ali Arastu (Northville, Mich./Northville) will make his season debut in the 400-meter hurdles. Arastu opened the season in the 400-meter dash at Florida State, recording the eighth-fastest time in the nation and top time in the Big Ten at 46.80. During the 2012 outdoor season, he earned All-America second team honors after finishing ninth at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. At the Big Ten Outdoor Championships, he finished runner-up and met the U.S. Olympic Trials automatic 'A' standard with a career-best time of 49.43. He went on to compete in the U.S. Olympic Trials, where he finished 23rd overall.
The 2012 Big Ten outdoor pole vault champion, senior Jack Greenlee (Cincinnati, Ohio/St. Xavier), will open his final season this weekend after being rained out at Florida State. His career-best height of 5.26 meters (17-3), which won the Big Ten meet, currently ranks third on U-M's all-time performance list.
There are currently seven student-athletes and one relay that rank in the top five on Michigan's all-time outdoor performance list.

Fifth-year senior Bobby Aprill (Dexter, Mich./Dexter), senior Jack Greenlee (Cincinnati, Ohio/St. Xavier) and junior Ali Arastu (Northville, Mich./Northville) are representing the Wolverines as tri-captains for the 2013 season. Each captain was chosen by the team and coaches to represent the different event areas-- Aprill (distance), Greenlee (field) and Arastu (sprints).
2012 in Review: Michigan finished ninth at the Big Ten Outdoor Championships a year ago and sent two student-athletes, as well as the 4x400-meter relay to the NCAA Outdoor Championships. Recent graduate Craig Forys finished second in the 3,000-meter steeplechase, Ali Arastu placed ninth in the 400-meter hurdles and the relay finished 19th. Three members of that relay team will return this season, including Aaron Taylor, Matthew Campbell and Philip Washington.
|Zach Ornelas
Cedar Park, Texas
On adding the steeplechase and 10K for outdoor season ... "We always get excited for outdoor to roll around -- indoor is really fun, but outdoor track is really where it's at because we get to specialize in our events with the steeple and the 10K. We feel like indoor is preparation for outdoor. Nick (Kern) and I are really excited to run the steeple this weekend. It's a fun event and one we really enjoy competing in, given that it's pretty painful. We're looking forward to starting off out in California just like last year -- I started out at USC and it went really well, so it's definitely a fun first race because it opens your eyes that outdoor is here and you're doing events that you haven't been able to do in a long time."
On what allows him to excel in the steeplechase ... "I guess for Nick (Kern) and I, experience is key. I've been doing the steeple since my sophomore year of high school, so this is something that I've really come to enjoy and have refined my skill at. Nick on the other hand, has some of the best form, probably the best form, on the team. Coach Gibby has us do a lot of drills in the off season to prepare -- we start quite early. As soon as cross country is over we start doing flexibility drills over hurdles. For me experience is key and for Nick, he has worked really hard to get the form down."
On the scored tri-meet helping to bring the team together... "It's kind of crazy, in outdoor we kind of go all over the place here pretty soon -- for example in a couple weeks, some of us will be going to Mt. SAC, and others will be going to Eastern Michigan. It's more of an individual sport for part of the season, but meets like this help everyone come together. If you ask most of the people on the team what there highlight during indoor was, it would be jogging the victory lap at the dual versus Michigan State. It's a great thing to see everyone from all the different specialties come together -- the throwers, the distance runners, the sprinters. It's really great to start off the season with everyone in the same place working together before we get into our specialized meets to try and get regional times."
On starting the season with a scored meet helping to motivate the team ... "I think it's beneficial for us to start the season with a scored meet, because the reality of it is, we're in the Big Ten and it's probably the best conference out there. No one shows any mercy once you get to the Big Ten meet so I think it's good to start with something that's going to be a pretty tough competition. Cal and Virginia both have some pretty good teams, so guys are going to have to be on their 'A' game right off the bat."
On student teaching while being a collegiate student-athlete ... "The School of Education is a pretty immersive program here. They put you in a school to work with kids at the age level you want to teach from the first semester in the program. Last semester during cross country, I was driving an hour, twice a week, to work with middle schoolers in West Bloomfield. This semester I'm lucky to be a little close at Saline High School, where Nick Renberg and Alex Leptich, from the women's team, both went to school. It's really great experience, the professors are great and I'm learning a lot actually getting to teach lessons to middle schoolers and high schoolers, but it's definitely a really hard thing to balance. I have a lot of expectations on both sides. I'm making it work, but I'm definitely excited for school to be over for the semester so I can focus on track a little more."

Jason had a good day today, even though his brother David had to leave and head back home to Los Angeles. It was good to have David here for a few days, and I could really tell that Jason was happy about it. It brought a little tear to my eyes when David said his good-byes and he grabbed Jason's hand. Then Jason just reached reached over and kind of pulled David down to give him a big hug. I wished I'd had the camera ready, but honestly I didn't see it coming - it was beautiful.
The PT folks came by and worked with Jason, but because of his level of discomfort it was decided to simply work on his arms and shoulders, and not have him roll today. He will have the opportunity to do that tomorrow. By late evening you could see a marked improvement in Jason's ability to focus and be alert. It is one of those things that I know is going to continue to happen, and it is simply a reflection of how long he has been taking the medications. He has to get stronger doses and as a result it takes a little longer to get back to a "normal" level of his mental abilities.
Linda (a.k.a. Mom) will be coming back tomorrow, so I'll have some help with the girls, and it will just be good to see her again. Otherwise, not much else to report for today. Jason continues to get mail, and he still has quite a few letters and cards to read through. Every time he does get into the mail he is amaze at how many people have sent him cards and things, and he doesn't even know who they are. I think it humbles him a bit, and that isn't a bad thing... ;-)
Thank you, for your continued prayers and support. The past couple of days I needed them.
This is a blog to chronicle this portion of the life of Staff Sgt. Jason Ross, my son, as he mends, after an I.E.D. explosion, on March 7, 2011, while serving his country in Afghanistan.

Virginia Woolf: Themes and Variations
Virginia Woolf: modernist, novelist, and critic. Virginia Woolf: diarist, feminist, sapphist, and socialist. Virginia Woolf: pacifist, incest survivor, and activist. Virginia Woolf: 'Invalid Lady of Bloomsbury', 'madwoman', and foremother of women's studies. Impossible to categorize, Virginia Woolf is one of the major figures of the 20th century. These papers from the Second Annual Conference on Virginia Woolf, held in New Haven in June 1992, demonstrate the breadth of current scholarship on the writings, life, and affiliations of Virginia Woolf and reflect her eclectic spirit and wide influence.

Stop for the night
Here are a few items I have learned this trip:
1. Always have a spotter when your parking your rig (Marge does an awesome job) she gest me out of more jams then I can count on both hands.
2. I know this will sound gross to most people, but when your in a RV it makes since, because its less clean up. So when you go do a Number 2, take 2 pieces of toilet paper and lay them in a X in the bottom of the toilet, then you have less clean up on your toilet bowl......lessons learned in the 3 months we have been dry camping. Will be in Reading tomorrow, and very busy getting trailer ready for thurs.

Rainy day in downtown Mahon.
Hi - Ian again. A quiet day in Mahon. Started with a trip around the harbour on a typical glass bottom boat. The highlight was a visit to Isle de Rei in the middle of the harbour. Learnt a lot about the history of Menorca and all the visitors / occupiers over the last 300 years - well worth a visit if you are ever on Menorca. The harbour ...
Chilling in Mahon
... to a beautiful mansion on the seafront with truely great views. As well as a great lunch Peter was well read in the history of Mahon harbour.
We have been dropped back to our lovely dry boat, but still too hot to stay onboard during the day so now in a bar preparing for some tourism tomorrow.
Signing off john.
Ley day
Active day on the boat today although sailing miles much reduced - John cleaned and dried a pretty wet boat after yesterday's sail. Hard work aside we had time for a pleasant breakfast, lunch and now having lamb/sea bass for supper. Mahon an interesting town - quieter today as now entering the low season - maybe the marina prices will drop. Walked up into the old town before food looking at the sights! but now back on the waterside for food. Tomorrow may be even less active.
Arrived in the capital
... in Mahon a little bit wet but in time for a good late lunch of Dorada. Found a good mooring in marina Mahon - pretty much in the centre of all action. Remnants of a classic boat racing event - good to see some excellent designs. Monday a bit if boat servicing and r& r ready for some more action. ...
Left ciutadella
Left cuidella at the crack of dawn ok 11am into a very pleasant easterly ish! wind. Lunch bought in the morning so ok for food. Good sail but decided to stop at Galdana for a swim and chill out. At least we can reach Mahon tomorrow if we want to and leave early. At anchor so likely to be up early. Galdana quite busy so lots to watch. I helmed all the way whilst John read his book ...

Fri-Sun., April 1-3 -- at Rebel Intercollegiate (Oxford, Miss.)
Live Scoring
Next on the Tee
Closing out its regular-season schedule, the University of Michigan women's golf team will head down to Oxford, Miss., Friday through Sunday (April 1-3) for the Ole Miss' Rebel Intercollegiate. The 54-hole event will be held at the Ole Miss Golf Course and feature an 18-team field. The Ole Miss Golf Course will be set up for a par 72 and 6,351 yards.
The Tournament Field
There will be 18 schools participating in the John Kirk/Panther Intercollegiate: Central Florida, Coastal Carolina, East Tennessee State, Kansas, Maryland, Memphis, Michigan, Mississippi State, Missouri, Murray State, Ole Miss, Rollins, SMU, South Florida, Southern Miss, Tennessee, Tulane and Tulsa.
The Tournament Schedule
Thursday, March 31: Practice Round (7:30 a.m., shotgun)
Friday, April 1: First Round (8 a.m., tee times off No. 1 and 10)
Saturday, April 2: Second Round (8 a.m., tee times off No. 1 and 10)
Sunday, April 3: Third Round (8 a.m., shotgun)
The Tournament Lineup
The Wolverines will travel five players to the Rebel Intercollegiate with senior Min Yean Tan (Penang Island, Malaysia/Hills International College [Australia]) and junior Meagan Bauer (Grand Blanc, Mich./Grand Blanc) heading up the Maize and Blue squad. Filling out the rest of the lineup will be freshman Alyssa Shimel (Pemberville, Ohio/Eastwood), freshman Yugene Lee (Athens, Ga./Oconee County) and senior Jenn Cleary (East Lansing, Mich./East Lansing).
Setting New Standards
Yugene Lee set a new career best with a two-under 70 in the first round of the Rio Verde Invitational. It marked her first career sub-par round and topped her prior best 73, which she fired in the first round of the Challenge at Onion Creek. With that round, she also set a new career best for a 54-hole tournament total of 224, seven shots better than her previous total of 231 at the Challenge at Onion Creek.
Big Improvements
Min Yean Tan, Meagan Bauer, and Caramia Sitompul have all improved in competition from last season. After finishing her junior season with a winning percentage of 57.8 percent, Tan upped her percentage to 67.2 in her nine events this year. Bauer has a percentage of 67.6 in eight events this season, almost 20 percent better than last season's 50.9 percent. However the most improvement has come by Sitompul, whose current winning percentage is 50.6 percent in seven events, is a little more than 20 percent better than her output last season (30 percent).
Winning percentage is calculated by dividing the amount of players a individual has finished ahead of in tournaments by the amount of players an individual has faced.
Showing Consistency
As a freshman, Yugene Lee has recorded 21 rounds as a starter, with 100 percent counting towards the Wolverines' team total. Lee has six starts this season and is averaging 78.52 per round.
Shared Contribution
Michigan has shown its depth this season, with five different players leading the team in scoring in their nine events. Min Yean Tan has led the team four times this year, while Meagan Bauer finished with the team-low score twice. In addition, Yugene Lee, Alyssa Shimel and Caramia Sitompul have each led one event.
Still Sizzling in the Second Round
Through nine events, Michigan has posted the tournament-best score in the second round. In fact, U-M is averaging 304.00 per second round, nearly two shots better than the first round (305.67) and seven better than the third (310.11). Overall, the Maize and Blue is scoring at a 306.59 clip per team round this season.
The Second Best of All-Time
After setting her career best with a 70 in the first round Challenge at Onion Creek, held Nov. 1-2, Min Yean Tan followed with a second-round, three-under 67, which marked the second-lowest round ever by a Wolverine. It marked the first time in Tan's career she shot below 70 and just the 17th time in U-M history a Wolverine broke the 70-stroke barrier. Tan was two shots away from U-M's all-time record of 65 (-7), carded by Ashley Bauer (2007-10) in the second round of 2010 Big Ten Championships.
The Maize and Blue Postseason Resume
Michigan has been represented in NCAA Regional competition by the U-M team or an individual in eight of the last 10 seasons, making team appearances in 2001, '02, '05, '07 and '09. Laura Olin (2004), Amy Schmucker (2006) and Ashley Bauer (2010) have made central regional appearances as individuals. In 2002, the Wolverines finished sixth at the central regional in East Lansing, Mich., to advance to their first NCAA Finals, where the Maize and Blue finished 17th.
A Very Full Showcase
Michigan has 31 tournament titles in the history of the program. Of those 31 titles, 12 have been won during the last seven years -- two in 2003-04, four in 2004-05, one in 2005-06, two in 2006-07, none in 2007-08, two in 2008-09 and one in 2009-10.
Fri-Sun., April 22-24 -- at Big Ten Championships (Glencoe, Ill.)
Thu-Sat., May 5-7 -- at NCAA Regional (Site TBD)
