Round-Up: Civil Unions gets initial approval; CS Council to consider employee compensation; Colorado Trail gets new loop option
By Andrea Chalfin News Dir. On March 12, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Bente Birkeland, Business/Labor, Capitol Coverage, Colorado Springs, Eliza Densmore, Gay & Lesbian, Indoor/Outdoor Recreation, KRCC News, Liz Ruskin, Public Safety, Round-Up, Student Reporter
A bill to allow civil unions in Colorado could be headed to the Governor's desk by the end of the week. The full house held a lengthy debate on the measure and is scheduled to take a final vote today. As Bente Birkeland reports, the debate once again fell along party lines but this year Democrats have the votes to pass the bill.
Colorado Springs police and firefighters would get a raise, but the whole workforce would have to shoulder more healthcare costs. Those are among the proposals Mayor Steve Bach's administration presented to City Council. KRCC's Liz Ruskin reports.
The nearly 500-mile Colorado Trail is adding a new section expected to be ready for hiking this summer. The section takes part of the Canada-Mexico Continental Divide Trail and incorporates it into the Colorado Trail. Executive Director of the Colorado Trail Foundation Bill Manning says the new 80-mile route offers users a scenic alternative to the current route.
"The existing users will have a choice when they're traveling the Colorado Trail and they get as far Southwest as Twin Lakes they'll get to a particular junction where they'll make a decision on whether to go right on the Collegiate West or left on what we call the Collegiate East or the route that has been the Colorado Trail for a longer period of time."
The route doesn't increase the total distance of the trail, but creates a 160-mile loop in the area. The Colorado Trail runs between Denver and Durango.

Learning to read will be a challenge for about 40 percent of kids. Still, by knowing the warning signs and getting extra help children who are struggling can succeed at learning to read, according to reading experts at StudyDog, an online reading program geared toward children ages 4 to 8 years old. With parent-teacher conferences under way in many schools, parents can speak with their child's teacher about reading progress and work to create a plan to help the child.
"Parents shouldn't assume that younger children who are behind in their reading development are late bloomers and will eventually pick it up," said Deme Clainos, a spokesman for StudyDog. "Reading is a learned skill that can be very complex, even for children who are doing well in all of their other school subjects. Parents are their child's best advocate and should take action as soon as they or a teacher recognize a reading problem."
Some common signs of a struggling reader include not knowing the name or sounds of various alphabet letters, skipping words and guessing unfamiliar words instead of sounding them out. When starting the StudyDog program, children take an initial pre-test to help determine their skill level. StudyDog is designed to help both new readers and struggling readers by reinforcing reading basics. The program automatically adapts to each child's specific needs and reading levels, while keeping learning fun with interactive games and fun characters.
Other features include:
"StudyDog is the best program on the market to help children who have fallen behind in their reading with an individualized approach to help them master the areas they have struggled with in the past," Clainos said.
About StudyDog
StudyDog is a proven leader in helping children quickly learn to read and has helped more than 6 million kids master basics like phonics. The company creates interactive reading programs specially designed for elementary students. What sets StudyDog apart from other learning programs is how StudyDog engages future readers as young as 3 years old. Similar reading software is able to engage older students who already know how to read. But StudyDog uses games and other features to connect with younger children who haven't learned to read yet. StudyDog's Adventures in Reading series is used in more than 3,000 schools nationwide. The lessons were designed to meet state early learning standards and the guidelines of the National Reading Panel. Founded in 2002, StudyDog programs have been used in schools for the past six years.

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
According to a Boston Globe report, MLB opened an investigation into performance-enhancing drug use during the 2008 season after two security employees were fired for steroid use. Despite investigating a possible scandal, MLB apparently didn't investigate enough. What did they miss?
Well, apparently one of the two laid off employees claimed to have exchanged steroids advice with David Ortiz's friend and personal assistant. It doesn't necessarily implicate Ortiz, but something fishy was definitely going on.
"I'm sure they were hoping I didn't know anything,'' said Jared Remy, one of the security staffers who lost his job. "It's like they didn't want to know. It's like: Do we really want to know or do we just want it to go away?''
Both former employees told investigators they knew nothing of steroid use by Red Sox players including Manny Ramirez and Ortiz, even though both tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs in 2003.
MLB started its investigation after the other security guard, Nicholas Alex Cyr, fell asleep at the wheel after driving home from the Beckett Bowl last July. State police found a quarter-full brown bottle of Anadrol, a powerful steroid. Once officials discovered he worked for the Red Sox, the investigation began. The main question (Where did these steroids come from?) was never asked, and never answered.
Instead of policing the problem, though, MLB cared more about its image. The Globe article explains it best:
But it also can be read – as it is by some specialists who study steroid abuse and the men who lost their jobs – as an indication that big-league baseball is focused more on its public image than on aggressively policing its players.
Major League Baseball defended its investigation as "thorough and detailed'' and said that it led to further "investigative activities'' that it would not disclose. The league would not say whether Ortiz or Ramírez were interviewed in the case.
"The contents of these interviews and the results of the investigation, like all department of investigations activities, are confidential,'' MLB said in a statement.
Remy, the other employee, was interviewed in connection with the investigation. He claimed that major league officials didn't ask much about his association with Ortiz's trainer.
"They didn't ask much at all; they wanted to make it disappear,'' he said.
Remy claimed that he used to discuss steroid use with Ortiz's salaried personal assistant, Felix Leopoldo Marquez Galice (known affectionately as Monga).
"He admitted taking steroids. We had conversations about steroids,'' said Remy.
"We'd talk, 'This one works for that. This one makes you bulky. This one makes you harder,' '' Remy recalled.
Marquez's lawyer, Thomas Kerner, disputed that account. "I have no idea on the credibility of Jared Remy, but my client has told me that he has no involvement in steroids.''
So, what connection, if any, did these staffers have with David Ortiz, Manny Ramirez, and other players? Was David Ortiz's friend and confidant a steroid user, despite claims he was not? So many questions, not many answers…
Reaction: What can we all learn from this? Major League Baseball is horribly embarrassed by the steroids scandal that currently grips the sport. They send out people to do a half-assed investigation just to see if there's something wrong. Despite knowing little or nothing about the case, the Red Sox fired the employees for connection to steroids. Instead of investigating the problem further, the team and league just tried to make it go away.
In the sports world especially, where there's smoke, there's fire. In this case, we could have a raging inferno. We may never know…
Tags: David Ortiz, Manny Ramirez, Red Sox, Steroids
"This one makes you harder" Remy recalled. What? Are they giving baseball players…Viagra?
On a more serious note, there's so much going on, it's going to be very difficult for the outsiders to piece this thing together. Especially since we have, I-want-steroids-in-MLB-Selig at the helm. Too many coverups and too many missed penalties/explanations for inaction.
All roads lead to money. I think the theory that baseball was losing its luster and steroids/more home runs brought the fans back into the game is increasingly gaining more merit in my book. It would also explain why the PED-rules were so lax, i.e. non-existent (and also why most of the penalties have been non-existent). Selig and MLB corporate should just own up to the the truth; the fans will respect the sport more, rather than it be shrouded in doubt and accusations like it is now.
More positive press for Boston sports.
Seriously, when is it all going to stop? America's pasttime has become a walking joke. You literally can't trust one single player. The steroid problem is crippling a once great sport and as far as we know, the problem won't ever go away. Every home run hit will be scrutinized and no record will be trusted.
I am getting to a point where I don't want to watch the game anymore. What's the point in watching a game full of cheaters and drug abusers?
I am sick to my stomach.
Selig definitely enjoyed the money…but the Players Union (specifically Donald Fehr and others) may be most to blame. The players stood to make a ton of money too, and better stats meant more money in a fattening baseball economy.
As far as the steroids mess goes…the MLB really showed how not to handle it. They screwed up most steps of the way, and had they hit the problem head on at first, we wouldn't be in this position. But, it all goes back to Selig needed to cut a deal to save baseball from a strike, which means the Players Union needs to be appeased. Give me a break.
As far as it baseball being tarnished by steroid use? You bet it is. But, I really think when they finally release the full list, we might be able to close one of the darkest chapters in baseball history.
What I don't understand is why other sports get a free pass with drug/steroids use? Will Rodney Harrison make the Hall of Fame? You bethca…despite the HGH connection. Will Shawne Merriman be seen as a feared defensive presence once again, assuming he plays? Yes, despite his own steroid use. HGH use is rampant in football I bet…but the issue isn't even broached.
Random side note: Despite the Globe making no real mention to it…Jared Remy happens to be Jerry Remy's son, according to reports.
Interesting connection to Remy. I wondered if he was related or if it was just a coincidence.
[…] it funny that during the same week that Boston has all of this steroid controversy, two of its players were two of the biggest offensive […]
I'll tell you what we can learn: MLB is out to protect it's precious franchise, the Boston Roid Sox and their (so they thought @ the time) squeaky clean reputation. If this was in NY, there is NO WAY MLB would have kept the lid on it for a year.

Your shopping cart is empty!
This section is filled with Limited Edition (Edicion Limitada) cuban cigar releases from Habanos SA since 2000. Initially, the cigars were manufactured using a selection of two-year old aged wrappers from the upper level of the plant, to produce a unique darker colour. From 2007 on, the binder and filler leaves were also aged for two years. We carry a large assortment of Limited Edition cigars and we are always on the look out for more. As you can assume, some of these have been out of production and circulation in the market for a while, and have become very difficult to obtain. Hence, many of these older Limitada do carry a price premium. Though as always, Cuban Lou's will always do their best to bring you the best price in the market.

The CX4 continues Ricoh's tradition of well-made, technically advanced high-performance long-zoom cameras, and introduces a couple of useful new features to an already impressive list. Performance and results are good, however the ageing body design is looking a bit stale, and the inconsistent exposure metering and less-than-perfect lens are disadvantages.
Hmm. S95 review pretty please?
The images quality(IQ) looks a like washout when compared to the a lot of medium price P&S cameras in the market. Personally I won't buy it if I am a new buyer.
I don't think it deserves a rate of 8 in terms of the IQ ratings.
This camera is beyond me! Just what, or who, is its target market? People who like spending enough to buy something really good but prefer spending it on something mediocre?
tean is spot on, objecting to the 8 for IQ.

The political economy of urbanization in America
by Ryan Streeter on April 9, 2012. Follow Ryan on Twitter.
One of the great paradoxes of recent decades is that as technology has made it easier for people to live and work in a more dispersed fashion, people have actually been moving closer together.
Put another way: as technological innovation has accelerated, so has urbanization. And what's more, urban areas are home to most of the fast-growing sectors of the economy, from finance to health care services to education to technology. This means that our faster urbanizing areas are increasingly where the economic and political clout in America lies.
Yet the economic and political implications of all this are frequently misunderstood.
Via Alex Tabarrok, we see this chart from a useful new study (PDF) by Credit Suisse on global urbanization, which shows the positive relationship between per capita GDP and urbanization rates in the U.S.:
In other words the more urban your state's population becomes, the higher your per capita GDP.
The study also has this chart on p. 19:
While the trends in China show urban areas exploding beyond the national growth average at a far higher rate than in the U.S., it's clear nonetheless that our urban areas are outpacing the nation as a whole. What would be even more interesting than this chart would be one that shows Austin, TX, Charlotte, NC, etc. – namely Sun Belt metro areas that have been dominating the migration game in the U.S. for at least the past decade.
Looking at these charts, it's hard not also to think of this one from Lane Kenworthy:
This chart shows that our national economic growth and middle class prosperity have become, in Kenworthy's parlance, "decoupled." As much of our growth is generated by urbanizing areas, it seems pretty clear that urbanization has not been friendly to middle class America.
One thing that's important to remember is that "urbanization" should frequently be called "suburbanization" instead, as the larger metro areas across the U.S. experience their fastest growth in the suburban areas around the urban core. The whole metro area is often misleadingly called a "city."
And it is this suburban class that is typically home to technology company presidents, global travelers, dual income homes bolstered by high levels of education, engaged citizens, and churchgoers. This is, by its sheer numbers, the super class that will increasingly determine elections, drive our future economic growth, and generate our next generation's leaders.
These people all typically think of themselves as middle class. And yet the middle class in Kenworthy's chart is more likely to be those living in the stagnant inner ring suburbs, dying manufacturing towns, and rural areas – all of which just one generation ago were understood, according the American myth, as the promise and future of our great land.
This radical shift of the American landscape is still poorly understood by the elite, which desperately sees America's future lying in our (shrinking) super cities, and which sees the middle class suburbs as the place that at best keeps America steady and at worst makes us a backward place.
But it's those who understand the dynamics of suburbanization of metro America and the stagnation of cities' in- and out-lying areas that will understand the political economy of growth going forward.

MOSCOW, Dec. 23 (Xinhua) -- World gas producers approved here Tuesday the charter for the Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF) to be headquartered in Doha, Qatar, Russian media reported.
The charter agreed to set up an executive office and a Doha-based secretariat, with secretary general elected in the next forum, Russian itar-tass news agency reported.
At the current forum meeting, Equatorial Guinea was granted full membership and Kazakhstan observer status, raising the numberof members and observers of the GECF to 15 and two respectively.
Russian Energy Minister Sergei Shmatko said the GECF is open to all countries, but full membership is only granted by the approval of at least three quarters of all members.
Gas producers also discussed the pricing mechanism of the gas market at the meeting, and they have agreed to exchange information concerning investment programs, and cooperate in the fields such as marketing, technology and liquefied natural gas.
Alexander Medvedev, deputy chairman of Gazprom which supplies a quarter of the European Union's gas, promised Tuesday that GECF won't become a monopolistic cartel.
The first ministerial meeting of the GECF was held in Iran in 2001.

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
I would contact a local rescue group and see if they can trap him and get him to the vet. If he has a growth related to the injury there may be an infection as well. If the local rescue won't trap him - see if you can get a trap and do it yourself - however, do not try to pick him up and handle him yourself unless he is in the trap as he is able to inflict serious harm especially if he is injured and feels threatened. If you get him in the trap – just take the trap to a vet that works with ferals. Start with some local rescue resources and see if they can assist. He's lucky someone like you is looking out for him. Good luck.

Questions about Benghazi
Benghazi is an abomination upon the United States. American government personnel were abandoned in an attack to terrorists, enemies of the United States. Did four men die so hideously by a government that washed its hands of them?
Yet the citizens of America are presented a lack of candor and truthfulness by the administration responsible. There are questions that must be answered.
What was Ambassador Chris Stevens doing in Benghazi at the time of his brutal death? Where was the president and commander-in-chief during this planned attack upon American officials and citizens?
What was going on in Benghazi and the White House that our president, our secretary of state and our secretary of defense refuse to discuss with the public?
Where are the voices of Sens. Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray, and Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers demanding accountability and responsibility for Benghazi's Sept. 11, 2012, massacre of American officials?

The programme roster also includes popular Indian serials that have been dubbed into Arabic, in addition to a range of lifestyle shows including cookery, yoga, and travel – all carefully structured to appeal to Arab audiences.
Punit Goenka, MD & CEO, Zee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd (ZEE) said, "As a part of our global strategy, Zee Alwan is a step towards strengthening our presence in the Middle East. After the success of Zee Aflam, this new channel will help us to further consolidate our share and enhance ZEE's reach."
Mukund Cairae, CEO–Middle East, North Africa & Pakistan, said: "Zee Alwan has received overwhelming response from Arab audiences across the Gulf region, particularly in the UAE and Saudi Arabia following its soft launch. With the grand roll-0ut, we are further strengthening the programming of Zee Alwan, with a focus on providing original Arabic content. Zee Alwan's niche of providing exclusive Arabic series – produced in the Gulf region as well as the dubbed Indian productions – sets a new trend in family television entertainment in the Middle East."
Mr. Cairae added: "With Zee Alwan, we are also creating a new platform for talent collaboration between the Arab world and India. This will benefit the creative community in the region, and add to the historic cultural linkages that have existed between Arabia and India for over several centuries."
Zee Alwan follows the launch of Zee Aflam, a dedicated 24×7 movie channel beaming Bollywood movies dubbed in Arabic. The two Arabic channels underline Zee's long-term commitment to the Arab world and to leverage the growing popularity of Bollywood and Indian television content among Arab audiences.
Zee Alwan's line up of Arabic serials include the hugely popular Hindustani, the first Saudi Arabian musical and comedy with a prominent cast, making its first and exclusive free-to-air channel telecast. Other Arabic serials, also to be telecast exclusively on the channel, include the Khaleeji series Banaat Al Jameaa, depicting the story of life after high school and the advantages and disadvantages that young men and women endure at school and within their families; and the Syrian drama Banat Al Alilah, a tale of a guarded secret shared by an aunt and her niece.
The popular Indian serials that have amassed millions in viewership, and have been dubbed in Arabic for Zee Alwan include: Malekat Jhansi, which narrates the tale of the courageous Rani Laxmi Bai, a name that stands for bravery and heroism; Alwa'ad, following the lives of three sisters from a hill resort who are brought together when their parents pass away; and Lalli, in which the protagonist discovers the positive side of life despite being subject to a life of poverty.
The array of lifestyle shows on Zee Alwan include celebrated Indian chef Sanjeev Kapoor's Konooz Khanaa that highlights the finer delicacies in Indian cuisine; Yoga for You¸ a health and fitness show which introduces the ancient Indian practice of Yoga and the health benefits that one can attain by practising it regularly; and Full Circle, a travel show that takes viewers to the Far East and the Pacific, illustrating various lifestyles and cultures.
All the programmes respect the sensitivities of Arab audiences, especially women. Zee Alwan also has several Arab female anchors to present the shows, provide recaps on earlier episodes, and present vignettes from upcoming episodes. The channel, transmitted from Dubai, with an operational office in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, can be accessed through frequency 12417 on Nilesat and 12111 on Arabsat.

Alberta.ca Alberta Culture and Tourism Francophone Secretariat English Facts & Statistics History
The Francophone heritage in Alberta dates back to the earliest days of the fur trade when the Montreal peddlers came to the Northwest region in search of adventure and
business opportunities. The voyageurs married Cree women and the first Francophone and Métis communities, were established. Members of religious orders came and
were followed by settlers. In this process, which spanned over 200 years, significant contributions were made to the settlement of the West and the founding of Alberta.
Many of the first settlers to the province were French Canadian. French was the first European language spoken in Alberta. These origins are still visible today and
according to the 2006 Census data, 390,895 or 12 per cent of Albertans are French descendants.
Alberta's Francophonie is important historically, politically, economically, culturally and socially. The documentation of the rich heritage of this official language
community and the creation of materials to reinforce community identity and pride are of enormous importance.
Alberta's Francophone Heritage website tells
these individual and community stories from the era of the fur trade to contemporary Francophone communities confidently embracing the future.
To learn more about some of the significant events in the development of Alberta's Francophone communities, download the
The official flag of Alberta's Francophone Community since 1982, the wild rose and blue band represent the Alberta population while the fleur-de-lis and the white band
represent the Francophone community. The interlaced colours signify that it is important for Francophones to be a part of the larger Alberta community.

Holley help needed. MAJOR FLOODING!!
Long story short;
dropped in newly built 383 chev into my truck. On my first attempt to crank it, fire came out of the carb right when it started to turn over. After flames were put out, fuel was pouring out of the secondaries on my Holley 780 vac. secondaries.
I thought the flames were from incorrect timing but it is set right to my knowledge. I searched all through these forums just to double check and it's right on.
So I adjusted the float level down as far as I could, and checked my fuel pressure during cranking and it's right where it should be (6-9) psi. Holley said this pressure should be fine for my carb. The carb is clean and the needle and seat assemblies are new. Now when I try to start it, it does the same thing and when I stop cranking, fuel is now dumping out ALL boosters and flooding the everloving crap out of my engine!
any suggestions?
Major Flooding
If you changed floats the problem may be the floats them selves.Some floats are different even a slight difference may be making them bind.Give them a good look, if you have a vernier caliper check the measurements.Best of luck.
yes, lower the fuel pressure back to about 4 psi as a starting point. Holley likely forgot to add some times they`ll accept higher fuel pressure and some times they won`t. if it seems okay afterwards, break the engine in and set the fuel pressure around 5 psi or possibly 6.
ok here is where it gets a bit more confusing for me.
I put this same holley on my old 305 just to see if it would crank and run before I swapped in the 383. It ran fine with no hitches. I haven't done anything different to the carb since then.
Doublevision, I think you're right when it comes to the fuel pressure. I just took out the holley mech. pump and put in the old stock pump to bring down the fuel pressure (i don't have a pressure regulator so this is the only way I can think of bringing it down right now)
still has a hard time starting and when I stopped turning it over, I took a peek into the carb and saw fuel pouring out of the secondaries again. so I took off the fuel bowls and re checked the needle and seat assy along with the floats. looks fine to me.
what causes fuel to just dump out for 30 seconds after I'm done cranking the engine? Also, I'll get a backfire through the carb once in a while when trying to start up. can the crazy flooding cause this at all? I would think not but what do I know?!
thanks for your responses
When I did the engine swap in my cutlass, I used a stock pump, I had all kinds of fuel pressure problems, fuel would pour out of the boosters, out of the top of the carb, it even did as you discribed, I got a gauge and checked the pressure, it was 14 psi, completely unheard of for a stock pump. I tried several different stock pumps and they all did the same thing, so I had to get a regulator, when a carb starts pouring fuel out of the boosters the first thing you should suspect is the fuel pressure, since the carb ran fine on another engine then it has to be the fuel pressure, it rules out anything else, since nothing is wrong with the carb`s floats and there`s no trash in the needle and seats, that only leaves fuel pressure as the problem since it`s all that`s left that can overcome the needle and seat. The problem with my car was the vapor line, I had to remove the carbon canister to install a sbc, and the canister was on the passengers side, I plugged off the vapor line which caused it to build pressure in the tank and the fuel pressure would rise until it overcame the carb, it would even hold pressure after the engine would shut off, just as yours seems to be doing. I took the cork out of the vapor line and the pressure returned to normal.
Also have the Power Valve checked, if the carb has backfired you very well could have blown P vlave and that would also cause an overload of fuel.
is your dist. in 180 degree's out ?its a very common mistake.i've done it .after being down for long periods of time you sometimes forget things.when i tear down that far i always start at tdc on # 1 after making that simple mistake once or twice.and after it backfired did you check your power valve.i know the newer 750's have blow out protection,mine does but i don't believe the older 780's do.i'd bump it around after fixing the carb and bring it up to tdc on # 1 and look to see if your rotor is pointing to #1 on your dist.cap.if it isn't pull the dist. up and look at the slot in your oil pump shaft and be sure its pointing between 5/7 cylinders,if it isn't use a long screw driver and make that change in slot direction,drop dist. back in and the rotor should be pointing to # 1 on your dist. cap.providing your carb. is fixed and you primed the oil pump while you had the dist. out, you should be ready to go.
Adjust the floats with the engine running so the fuel just wets the bottom threads of the sight hole. Anything more than that will cause it to flood. I would also look over the needle and seats VERY carefully. It doesn't take but a SMALL bit of debris to cause major flooding. Plus, anyting more than 4-5 lbs of fuel pressure can make a small flooding problem bigger.
Ok I'm making progress but I'm not there yet.
Doublevision: Good call on the tank vent tube. I had a piece of tape over the opening so nothing would fall in during the engine swap. I forgot about uncovering it.
machine shop tom: I took out the needle and seats again and inspected and cleaned once again. I adjusted the floats again and put er back together. (i would adjust it when it's running but it's not running yet. ha ha)
There isn't anymore backfiring through the carb and the extreme flooding has stopped!!! It will just crank without starting. As soon as I turn it over it starts to make an effort to sputter but then it's just the sound of the starter again. I triple checked the timing. All is good there.
Is it possible that it's still flooded really bad inside? I had a bunch of gas pour down the intake last night from the flooding prob. How should I correct this. I'm also afraid of breaking in the cam with a possibility of gas in the oil.
Any more suggestions? Oh and to Unixkid and GoneNova, I put in power valve protection when I rebuilt the carb.
Remove the spark plugs and turn her over a few times without touching the gas petal to air out the cylinders. Maybe let her sit for an hour or two with the plugs out to dry.
Then try starting again.
Oh, also, check if the plugs are wet with gas.
I just wanted to thank eveyone for their help and that I got her started. I blew all the gas off of the plugs and let the cylinders air out for a while.
She still had a hard time starting but a squirt of starting fluid helped her get going. It spit out the carb a couple of times and flames shot out once but it seemed to smooth out as long as I didn't let my rpm's drop too low. I advanced my timing a little more and that seemed to help as well. Unfortunately some crazy overheating prevented me to properly break the cam in. I had to shut her down because of a small fire. I hope that didn't mess the cam up too bad.
But now on to bigger and better problems.......a loud low end knock through all rpms and all temps. My investigation begins as soon as it cools down.
thanks again to all
not good sounds like the engine could be the problem if oyu have a knock with a brand new engine

Season's Meetings
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Yes, even in snow-free South Florida. Miami may not get the winter weather, but there are still plenty of ways to celebrate the season. Holiday wonderlands are hard to come by in this tropical oasis, but they exist. At the Deering Estate at Cutler (16701 SW 72nd Ave., Palmetto Bay), you'll find the glorious grandeur of days gone by. All the buildings at this historic site are decked out with holiday décor, featuring seasonal decorations and delights created by local garden clubs and groups. The spectacle runs through this Tuesday and again December 26 through 31, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. This Saturday, there will also be story time with Santa. The wonderland is free with regular admission, which costs $12 for adults and $7 for children ages 4 to 14; estate members get in free. Visit deeringestate.com or call 305-235-1668. With everyone from the Muppets to Jean-Luc Picard starring in A Christmas Carol over the years, few can make this old classic feel anything less than stale. But Bill Murray makes everything awesome, and such is the case with Scrooged. This '80s version of the Dickens tale is screening before Christmas, so you can laugh your ass off and get into the holiday spirit all at once. Bring some cash for food truck treats, and do a no-rain dance in advance. The movie starts at 8 p.m. this Friday at Brickell World Plaza (600 Brickell Ave., Miami). Admission and parking are free. Visit brickellworldplaza.com Animals have had a hand in Christmas since Jesus was chilling with camels in Bethlehem, so Zoo Miami is the perfect place to celebrate the season. With its Zoo Lights shindig, the whole spot is decked out in animal-shaped lights and dazzling trees. Plus, you can take pictures with Santa, drink hot chocolate, and shop for Christmas swag. The show runs from 7 to 10 p.m. this Friday through December 30 (excluding this Tuesday and Wednesday). Tickets cost $5 per person (children 2 and younger get in free); hot chocolate and pics with Santa cost extra. Visit miamimetrozoo.com.

Geez its not that hard, took me 3 hours to do both of them on my e36 and im no mechanic. Makes quite a bit difference i found
baderlfc (02-03-2010)
should take a garage less than that then surely?
i've been told by 2 people that they are a nightmare job! god knows what they were on about?!?
p.s.. I can't edit the title..
Easy job the hard bit is getting the old bush out. Putting the polyflex bush in in is very easy.
Best way to find out how long it would take for qualified mechanics in a garage to do it, along with costs, would be to simply ask around.
You won't know for certain how much you're looking at until you do.
your right, I need to query prices with a couple of different places!
i was advised when i had my 4 wheel alignment done that the rear trailing arm bushes were starting to show some wear so want to get them done in the next couple of months..
Pair of RTAB's with the tool should take approx an hour. Without the special tool 2 hrs max. As mentioned, powerflex bushes are a piece of piddle to fit as they come in 2 halfs and dont need pressing in.
A rear wheel alignment is needed after these have been replaced. I dont recommend straight away as they need to settle, but about 50 - 100 miles later...
hi,Ihad both mine done on the e36 and e46 and was £75 per corner
£75 a corner?! Im guessing they either didn't have this "special tool" or they charged about £150 an hour labour??
I have asked my nearest BMW indy and they said they'd do both bushes for £70

Another take on Sunday's indie-palooza at the Bank of America Pavilion with Vampire Weekend, Beach House and Dum Dum Girls. Check out Alex Cavallo's Phlipcam video here.
If you look at the giant curvature of the ceiling covering the seats at the Bank of America Pavilion at just the right angle, you can almost feel like you are in the belly of some terrible whale when you are at the wrong show. That's the way it felt Sunday night near the cold and bland deeps of the Boston Harbor. Despite the indie super-bill, most of the seats lurked empty like black cavities in the whale's teeth, as a mostly-disinterested crowd mulled around the BOA Pavilion snack and merchandise area, drinking giant cans of Bud Lite, casually watching the bands on video screens, and checking out the 'acoustical' act playing just a few hundred feet away at the beach hut-themed V.I.P. bar.
Opening-act Dum Dum Girls didn't say a word about the present scene during their performance, although they can't have been too comfortable. Aside from about a hundred people in the first few rows, the only thing shaking was the man with a video camera taking close-ups. Dum Dum Girls were formidable with their choral garage pop; tight musicianship, thundering floor toms, not to mention boots, bangs, lace and black minis (kind of like Morticia meets the Ramones). A little shyness is understandable for a new band playing in front of that much emptiness, but Dum Dum Girls have a great enough clutch of songs to develop into a dominant band in the next few years.
Beach House's Victoria Legrand did seem get a little sarcastic towards the crowd when she said, "I hope you're having a relaxing evening." If relaxing means somnambular, then I think we were, as Beach House gave little in terms of energy — only guitarist Alex Scally rocking out (in a chair) to one mid-tempo mood piece after another. Scally himself took a spin on the usual beckoning for the audience to 'sit back, relax and enjoy the show' with this strange quip: "we're happy to be here with Dum Dum Girls and Vampire Weekend, so don't get too comfortable." As Legrand stood behind her keyboard, her mess of hair once again in her face all night like a mental patient, it was easy to see that Beach House's act only works when the audience buys into their decadence. Their only burst of energy, "Norway," was so full of pre-recorded tracks that it even made a giant Bud Lite sound good right about then.
And then came Vampire Weekend's cue to rescue the crowd from Monstro's belly! It had been a long night of waiting for some parochial World Music, NYC style, and suddenly the listless crowd at BOA Pavilion became frothing Vampire Weekend fans. Amidst the pumping sing-a-longs and multicolored spotlights, it seemed fun for a minute to have the sounds of Vampire Weekend splashing around the concrete waterfront. But unless we're talking about classic rock, or blast-from-the-past oldies where the outdoor convention center atmosphere makes sense, there are better places to see bands with vitality than the Pavilion.

An email went out this morning to eighty local start-ups who had applied to be part of the New York City Job Fair. It was a rejection letter, thanking them for their time, but explaining there were only forty spots available for one hundred and twenty applicants.
Perhaps the sender intended a blind CC, but the list of recipients was open for all to see. "So we just decided, screw this, we can do our own thing," declared Harris Goodman, VP of marketing at virtual learning startup LateNiteLabs.
It seemed to the slighted startups that the companies who made it into the job fair were the ones that needed the least help.
"Most of them have gotten some serious funding and media attention," Mr. Goodman said. "Well we're a profitable company. Just cause we weren't featured on Techcrunch doesn't mean we can't pay six figures."
One hour, one Google group and several hundred emails later, plans for a competing job fair are raging, with at least 60 participating companies. "We were going to shell out $200 bucks for their event, so why not put that capital into helping ourselves," said Mr. Goodman.
A smattering of the upstart companies includes: GetGlue, Tenka, Yellowbrck, RenttheRunway, Boxee, Spinback and Sulia. "There were so many people that were left out, and then one email just set it off," Vasu KulKarni, CEO of Krossover. "Now my inbox is exploding, I have to get off this list!"
Has a classic BCC fail turned a group of ragtag startups into a recruiting army? Stay tuned for the landing page.
UPDATE- BOOM, that was quick. NYC Startup Jobs Unfair!
UPDATE – They've changed the name from the delightful Unfair to the rather bland Silicon Alley Job Fair.

I purchased the Dovetail Design for the simple loop scarf for a X-mas present I'm making. I'm having trouble deciphering the end part of the scarf.
Work 7 rev St st rnds. (4 sets of St st and Rev St st rnds, less BO row).
I understand "Work 7 rev St st rnds. After that I'm stuck. Can anyone help clarify?
Hmm. It almost sounds like they want you to work garter stitch, but they're calling the purl rounds 'reverse stockinette' and the knit rounds 'stockinette.'
If you wanted to work rev. st.st. in the round, you'd purl every round.
I suspect that what I said first was right.
(purl 1 round, k1 round) 3 times; then purl one round and bind off in knit.
Do you have a link so we can see what it looks like?

Dear Stata-listers
After far too long in development, I am happy to report that my
bivariate Tobit ado files are now available. The corresponding help
file, however, is not yet finished. Nonetheless, because I received
two requests for the program in the last 24 hours, I will not wait
any longer to make them available; the properly formatted help file
will come as soon as I learn to write in Stata's markup language.
There are two ado files available on my website (http://
users.drew.edu/dlawson): bitobit.ado and bitobit_ll.ado. Both need
to go into your ado/personal folder. To run a bivariate Tobit, the
command is "bitobit estimate, y1(name of first dependent variable) x1
(list of independent variables from first equation) y2(name of second
dependent variable) x2(list of independent variables from second
equation) censor1(censor1) censor2(censor2)" where censor1 and
censor2 are variables that take a value of zero for observations of
their respective y variable that are actually observed, a value of 1
for those that are top-censored, and a value of -1 for those that are
I hope this is useful, and would love to be informed if anyone ends
up using this.

VIDEO: Kelly Clarkson, "Never Again"
Poor Kelly Clarkson. The breakout star from the first season of American Idol had to wait months before RCA agreed to release her third and latest CD for the label, My December — and even then, RCA chief Clive Davis's middling faith in Miss Independent's commercial appeal had him doling out veiled potshots during the 2007 American Idol finale. Kelly has since revealed that Davis offered her $10 million to remove five of the songs she'd written from the album and replace them with tracks that had better hit potential. She couldn't fire Davis for wanting to make money off her, so she canned her manager, Jeff Kwatinetz. To top it all off, ticket sales for her summer tour weren't what Live Nation expected. So she canceled it. The Kelly Show has gone to shit. It wasn't supposed to turn out this way, was it?
Kelly has put on a brave face. Her spin: "I'm a singer-songwriter y'all, not just a mouthpiece. Don't tell me to shut up and sing!" The earnestness of this effort hasn't been lost on me. Kelly's perverse stubbornness is one of the things I love about her: it's the "Don't Mess with a Texas Former American Idol Harboring Severely Unpleasant Relationship Issues" maxim she's perfected over time. But I do find her naïveté absurd, particularly at this stage of her career. "If I were to make a Breakaway II, I would have failed myself," Kelly told Elle magazine in its July music issue. "I don't mind sucking, as long as it is my decision." My December doesn't exactly suck, but it's got no Top 40 standouts, no supremely hook-filled choruses, no heart-stopping, scale-climbing crescendos. In fact, it's as cold as the title implies. After a few cursory listens, you feel you're forcing yourself to drink a cheap cup of coffee. There are pockets of energy to be found here, but there's no pleasure in discovering them.
It feels sacrilegious to say these things about Kelly, who earned my adoration partly by being the rare pop star who is confident of her talents and yet also self-aware. She has said that even when the tweens who are so rabid a part of her fan base profess their devotion, she's ambivalent about their worship, certain that, like the Britneys and the Christinas before her, she too will be weeded out. What a shame, then, that she couldn't display the same perceptiveness when it came to assessing what her audience desires for her evolution. If she wants to be a rocker, that's fine. Rather than simply inviting Mike Watt to play bass in her backing band, why not go all the way? She could've hired Kevin Churko — who collaborated on and produced Ozzy Osbourne's latest venture — to help her realize her sleaze-metal dreams. (Type "Sweet Child o' Mine," "Jack Daniel's," and "Kelly Clarkson" into a YouTube search if you don't know what I mean.) Kelly is a fantastic singer. But she didn't win an ASCAP Award by herself. She's not an indie chanteuse or a solo songwriter, and she never has been.

Indeed, Wills' hatred for priests and the priesthood is
palpable on nearly every page of his angry polemic. But it is difficult to understand the source of this hatred
because his examples of "clerical privilege" are so silly. For example, on page 31 we begin to get
an idea of his early anger toward priests when he describes his days as a young
golf caddie who had to give priests "special treatment" on the golf course:
"Men already prepared to tee off let him go ahead of them. It was presumed he
had to get back to his spiritual tasks."
Wills also recalled that priests often abused parking rules: "once when
a priest drove me to the airport to pick up a friend, he stopped in a
no-parking area just outside the entry…he told me he had a clerical sticker on
his car." (p 31)
So why did Wills enter the seminary and stay for five years
if he had such hostility for the priesthood? It's not clear. But he continued
his animosity as an adult, recalling an old priest friend of his who "invited
himself to our house every Saturday to watch his favorite TV shows. He asked
that our kids be kept quiet and he ate the special meal my wife
providedwithout ever thanking her. He obviously assumed it was just his
The hatred escalates throughout the book and culminates in a
chapter titled, "Killer Priests" where Wills pronounces that "priests killed
Jesus. That is what they do. They
kill the prophets." (p 80)
Appearing to see himself as one of the prophets/martyrs, Wills devotes
his entire book to ridiculing the practices of the Churchincluding what he
calls priestly imperialism and human sacrifice. It is a difficult book to read only because it is
always a tragedy to see a man lose his faith so publicly, especially a man who
should know better and know more.
As one
reviewer on Amazon.com states, "Once Wills was an interesting and
provocative writer. Now he is simply a muckraker pretending to be an academic
of deep erudition. Buy this book if you wish to see an example of an attempt to
destroy the central dogmas of the Catholic Church." Exactly right. It is one
thing to rightly critique clericalism or acts of arrogance; it is quite another
to rage against an institution without dealing fairly with the historical and
theological evidence, and without acknowledging the great goods rendered by
individual priests and the priesthood in general.

While vigorous debate is welcome and encouraged, please note that in the interest of maintaining a civilized and helpful level of discussion, comments containing obscene language or personal attacks—or those that are deemed by the editors to be needlessly combative and inflammatory—will not be published.

Family vacations are supposed to be full of happiness — but not in the Kardashian family! With Khloe going through her divorce and Rob skipping trips because of his weight, Kris Jenner completely breaks down in Thailand!
After Khloe Kardashian admits that she feels horrible over Rob Kardashian's weight battle, she contemplates leaving the family vacation early on Keeping Up with the Kardashians. So momager Kris Jenner can no longer keep it together — and she tells Kim Kardashian that she cries every single night! So sad.
'KUWTK': Kris Jenner Cries Every Night
"I want to fix Rob. Sometimes you just can't. I have not not cried myself to sleep in so long, I don't even know what that's like. I go to bed every night worried about everybody and I'm sure Khloe's doing the same thing," Kris tells Kim holding back tears.
While Kim feels that Rob is an adult and he needs tough love, Kris can't help being a mother and worrying about her only son!
It definitely was a tough vacation for her, too, after Kylie and Kendall both disappeared midway through the trip and decided to spend a day in the "town" alone and not let anyone know.
We can't say we blame Kris for worrying about her kids, especially Rob and Khloe. Not only is she worrying about Khloe for the heartbreak she's going through but also the guilt that she admitted to feeling over Rob's issues — when it's definitely not her fault. However, Khloe and Rob have always have a deeper bond than anyone else.
So sad! We're hoping that Rob and Khloe can get through their issues together by leaning on each other. What did you think of the episode, HollywoodLifers?

I was told that before putting malar implants to project my cheekbones it is necessary to get rid of the fat in my face. I would like to know if ultrasonic lipo which is more expensive is a better choice, with more precision, than regular lipo when working on the face.
Is Ultrasonic Liposuction a Better Choice of Lipo for a Microliposuction of the Face (Cheeks, Jawline and Jowl)?
Doctor Answers 3
Liposuction of face? and cheek implants?
I do not routinely liposuction the face because it may cause premature aging. I am not sure why your surgeon recommended it and then cheek implants?
Liposuction before Cheek Implants?
WIthout examining you it is difficult to comment on your particular situation. I have never heard of the need to get rid of facial fat as a prerequisite to cheek implants. There are many Plastic Surgeons currently that do not generally advocate removal of facial fat due to the hollow look that can develop as the patient ages.
If you are unsure of your surgeon's recommendations, I suggest that you seek out a second opinion from another Board Certified Plastic Surgeon prior to proceeding.
Liposuction before cheek implants?
Without a photos I am not sure I get the rationale for the liposuction at all. Maybe a second opinion is in order. As a rule, the skill of the surgeon is far more important than the technology used. All the best.

Prince William & Kate Middleton Prep For Palace Life! Photos Inside Their New Home — And It's Baby-Ready!!
Prince William and Kate Middleton are gearing up for their move from a quaint cottage in Wales to London's sprawling Kensington Palace, and palace sources say William is eager to populate its long corridors with babies!
"William loved growing up there, in apartments 8 and 9," a source tells Life & Style magazine. "Diana encouraged the boys to run around and play in the garden. It's the perfect place to raise children."
According to the magazine, "When it came time to choose a London home where he and his new wife could raise their own family, William knew he wanted to live in the place where he had enjoyed so many special moments—and hear the sound of children's laughter echoing through the hallways once again."
And babies are indeed on the royal couple's mind: "Obviously we want a family, so we'll have to start thinking about that," William has said. And Kate's just as eager: "I hope we will be able to have a happy family."
Adds royal biographer Andrew Morton: "My research suggests Catherine should be pregnant within a few months of marriage," he tells Life & Style. "Diana and Princess Elizabeth were pregnant within three months of marriage."
As for their Kensington Palace apartment—which William and Kate chose after looking at other units in the 17th-century palace near London's trendy Notting Hill neighborhood—it's currently being refurbished and decorated with furnishings Kate picked out.
And there's no shortage of room at the palace: It sits on 750 acres, and its extensive gardens include paved walkways and ornamental pools. Plus, it's only going to get better: The palace is undergoing a $12 million renovation to prep for the Queen's diamond jubilee next year.
"They are thrilled about moving," a source tells Life & Style of William and Kate's impending new life. "It will bring back such warm memories for William."
