Mannie and Allan's Wedding
"We decided to ask Sunday W. to be our wedding photographer since the pictures he took for my sister's wedding 3 years ago turned out so beautifully. His does a mix of classic and journalistic styles that was precisely what we'd wanted. His masterful artistry and photography skills and wonderful sense of style really stand out, especially with our Wedding Party photos during the outdoor photoshoot session. He is marvellous to work with and has truly amazing ideas for photo backdrops and posing. We are so happy that our wedding day pictures turned out soooo well...!!!! His camera has captured the most important moments on the happiest day of our lives and I am certain our wedding photos will be cherished for decades to come. Highly recommended by this married couple."

Having an internet connected device doesn't really mean a thing if you don't use it to access content or connect with others. And with ready access to wireless networks, BYOD and the resurgence of chat services, it's no surprise that CES 2013 has brought a range of new video chat tools to the market. Here's a few that made it onto our radar.
The Viewscape strategy was introduced by Cisco a couple of years back, but it wasn't until now that the company officially laid out its blueprint. At CES 2013, Cisco unveiled plans to decongest data being delivered to consumer televisions with Videoscape Unity, delivering a new kind of video experience. Aside from mulitscreen, personalized and synchronized features, Cisco is banking on the social aspect of the service to deepen viewer engagement with virtual viewing parties, real-time IM, and video chats around linear video and more.
See all CES coverage here!
ooVoo, the service that offers free video chatting and instant messaging, has upgraded their offering with a new feature called "Watch Together." The new feature is based on Google+'s Hangouts, which allows people chatting with each other to enjoy the same video simultaneously. While Hangouts only allow 9 people to enjoy the same video together, ooVoo supports 10.
According to ooVoo President Jay Samit, Watch Together has been the most requested feature for their service. The feature not only allows people to watch videos together, but also search for YouTube videos inside ooVoo, allow other chatters to change what the group is watching, and anyone in the group can even control video playback. Watch Together will be available first for Windows users, and will soon come to Mac, iOS and Android users.
Biscotti Inc., the company that delivers HD video calling products, will be showcasing Biscotti XS, the newest member of their line of HDTV-based video calling appliances, and the new MyBiscotti Cloud Services that includes video mail, multiparty calling and PSTN interoperability, at CES 2013. Biscotti XS features hardware and software enhancements such as high-performance Wi-Fi, ethernet connectivity, a Multiport Power Adapter with international power blades, keyboard remote control, universal mount and worldwide regulatory approvals.
"Biscotti is reinventing the video calling experience," said Dr. Matthew B. Shoemake, CEO and Founder of Biscotti. "Video calling should be just as simple as voice calling. The Biscotti and MyBiscotti Cloud Services we are demonstrating at CES provide our customers with a convenient and comfortable video calling experience, allowing our customers to make and receive video calls as easily as picking up the phone or sending a text."
Personify Inc. is taking video chat to a whole new level with Personify Chat. The service allows you to share your environment with people, so you share a similar experience. For lack of a better explanation "It's like a virtual green screen — almost as if you're the weatherman with all the content in the world as your backdrop," Personify CEO and co-founder Sanjay J. Patel describes.
Aside from that, Personify Chat lets chatters share visual cues like facial expressions and body language, which allows them to provide honest and emotional feedback, something that's hard to come by when using most text-based chat tools.

Sometimes a particular case comes along that appears, at first, to be overwhelming. This case fits that description (Figures 1 to 3). However, when this patient e-mailed my office and inquired about the possibility of flying across the country to have me treat him, I had fortunately done many cases involving hundreds of teeth using the matrix system that I developed to treat dentitions afflicted with black triangles, albeit none of this magnitude. I felt absolutely confident that we could achieve a good outcome. The trick was to disassemble the case into bite-sized pieces.
This case presents many excellent questions and the additional challenge of severe facial abrasions. I will first review the background of black triangles and of lower incisor complications and then proceed with the presentation of the clinical procedures used to treat this particular patient.
One third of adults have unaesthetic black triangles, which are more appropriately referred to as open gingival embrasures.1 Besides being unsightly and prematurely aging the smile, black triangles are prone to accumulate food debris and excessive plaque.2 A recent study of patient attitudes found patient dissatisfaction with black triangles to rank quite highly among aesthetic defect, ranking third following carious lesions and dark crown margins.3 If you go online and search "dental black triangles," you will be able to view hundreds of patient black triangle questions and patient complaints/lawsuits resulting from adult orthodontic cases and postperiodontal therapy papilla loss. This clinical and aesthetic dilemma demands more attention from our profession. The caveat is that, until now, there has been no disciplined minimally invasive approach for treatment. Today, instead of improvising and struggling, I have developed a specific predictable protocol to treat this problem.
The aesthetics of the lower teeth are often overlooked or simply ignored by many dentists. Recently a fellow passenger seated next to me on a flight was intrigued by the photos that were on my laptop. He asked, "Why do dentists only seem to treat the upper teeth when the lower teeth look all jacked up? Do they think no one notices? It looks ridiculous to have perfect top teeth and ugly bottom teeth!" In addition, as we age, the lower incisors become more visible as the facial muscles lose their tension on the lower lip.
Lower incisors present their own unique restorative challenges. The incisal edge is broad and thin mesiodistally. The root, in contrast, is very broad buccolingually. Imagine a butter knife that has been permanently twisted at 90° in the middle of the blade. This anatomic curiosity creates demanding draw/path of insertion issues for a porcelain laminate or full-crown preparation. A lower incisor with significant recession leads to a mutilatory tooth preparation for porcelain. When I had an opportunity to show this case to the top ceramists in Toronto, Ontario and Seattle, Wash, their answer was refreshingly candid: "Dr. Clark, to treat this case properly with porcelain laminates would require you to mutilate these teeth."
|Figure 1. Preoperative view of a black triangle case. Note the pursing of lips and forced smile of a patient who is embarrassed of the aesthetics of the lower teeth.
|Figure 2. The receded papilla height of the anterior teeth was not significantly lower than that of the posterior teeth, ruling out a surgical approach.
|Figure 3. This view demonstrates the unique "twisted butter knife" anatomy of the lower incisor tooth.
|Figure 4. High magnification (8x) of the cementoenamel junction area of the tooth. This area is virtually impossible to clean with a prophy cup and scaler, and virtually unbondable unless the dentin is clean and the surface abraded.
|Figure 5. High magnification (12x) view of the root after step 9. Note how the gentle blasting has stripped away the contaminated surface dentin and yet leaves the enamel almost undisturbed.

|Figure 9. Yellow ContacEZ (Contact EZ) lightens the contact, allowing insertion of the matrix and at the same time removes calculus and plaque from the
contact area. So integral to the technique, they are now included in the Bioclear Matrix kit.

Why Do So Many Dentists Mistrust Composite To Treat Black Triangles?
Like many clinicians, Michael's (the patient in question) dentist in North Carolina hadn't heard of Bioclear and was unfamiliar with injection molding of composites. Therefore he was leery of treating Michael with "bonding." At that point Michael decided to cross the country for a different solution because porcelain veneers and periodontal surgeries did not appeal to him as ideal treatments. After he saw my "Black Triangle" and "Restoratively Driven Papilla Regeneration" articles on the Internet and videos on YouTube, he opted to fly to the west coast for treatment.
After spending many hours working with manufacturers and tens of thousands of dentists, I compiled a "top 5" list of composite and porcelain fallacies that have steered dentists away from minimally invasive composite treatments for black triangles, or has doomed their previous attempts leaving them gun-shy to try it again:
- "Acid-etching cleans the tooth."
False. Phosphoric acid barely touches plaque. Biofilm is so tenacious and we forget that phosphoric acid removes the mineral, not the organic component of tooth surfaces. Biofilm is organic, not a mineral. This residual biofilm at the margins is likely the number one reason why Class V and interproximal composites turn brown at the margins. No bonding agent can bond to biofilm, and most dentists are leaving biofilm on their hard to access margins.
- "A stronger dentin bonding agent is the answer."
False. They (the manufacturers) keep selling us new and improved dentin bonding agents with higher and higher dentin bond strengths. The problem is twofold; first of all, in a case like this, most dentists are bonding to plaque, calculus, and contaminated dentin and no current resin bonds to biofilm. Secondly, with an approach using the Bioclear matrix; uncut, blasted, and rinse-etched (with phosphoric acid) enamel is leveraged to provide the bulk of the retention and reliance on the dentin is lessened. We can trust enamel bonding. The key is in the design of the Bioclear Matrix and the ability to "wrap" the tooth with seamless composite jacket.
- "A full crown is better."
False. If you were the patient with otherwise healthy teeth, would you choose full crowns? Consider that a full crown destroys 70% of coronal tooth volume with a 10% to 20% chance of eventual resultant pulpal death.
- "A porcelain veneer is better than bonding."
In a case like this, false. First, porcelain veneers cannot reach far enough to the lingual, so the space is blocked from view but becomes a plaque trap on the lingual. Secondly, bonding a veneer to this much cervical dentin should make you nervous. Very nervous.
- "Direct bonding is too difficult."
In the past this may have been true. But today, false. In the modern resin era, we utilize anatomic Bioclear matrices coupled with injection molding filling technique with, for example, a universal nanocomposite, thus creating and ideal a flowable/paste interlace.
First, I consulted 2 renowned microscope-equipped periodontists. I would have normally immediately excluded the surgical option based on this patient's situation but, in this case, because of the severity of the embrasures attrition, I felt that second and third opinions were warranted. In addition, if a follow-up surgical approach were needed, the periodontist would already be on board.
Noted periodontist, Dr. Peter Nordlands' summary of this patient: "Dear David, the papilla height across the lower anterior teeth is located at the same level as all of the other adjacent papillae. This means that the individual papillae are not deficient but instead, the patient has suffered incisal edge wear and extrusion of the incisors. Although root coverage could be very predictable, I would recommend a restorative solution as you have so beautifully shown in the Bioclear video. My experience is that surgical papilla reconstruction is most predictable in situations where the papilla has been surgically abused previously."
Figure 1 shows the functional and aesthetic dilemma. The retracted view (Figure 2) shows the magnitude of the black triangles on the lower. The patient's first priority was treating the lowers, and he would return to the west coast in a few months to treat the upper black triangles. Facial abrasions and recession tripled the complexity of treatment (Figure 3). Blasting, which is application of a mild abrasive with air-water mix, is an absolute necessity for this treatment (Figures 4 to 7). Once the facial abrasions are restored up to the line angle areas, a rubber dam is placed. The interproximal areas are nicely managed with the rubber dam and the DC-203 Bioclear matrices together (Figures 8 to 15). To try to treat the facial abrasions at the same time that the matrices are in position is not recommended. The Bioclear method is almost the inverse of the old flat matrix technique. The facial surfaces are left with some excess because this is the loading area. The interproximals, when molded, will require little or no finishing. Immediate postoperative views demonstrate the dramatic emergence profiles, mirror finish, and regenerated papillae (Figures 16 to 18). Dentists and periodontists often ask these patients, "Are these veneers? Are these crowns?" No. This is done with an injection molding technique performed with high-level magnification using a universal nanocomposite (in this case, Filtek Supreme Ultra [3M ESPE]) (flowable and paste) into the Bioclear matrix, and polishing all with Jazz Polishers (SS White) (Table).
Case WorkUp:
Having a mirror smooth composite finish makes everyone happy; the patient, the soft tissue, and especially you, the clinician. The matte or grainy finishes of the past collect lipstick, biofilm, stain, and feel like cheap dentistry to the patient's tongue. In our traditional mindset, only porcelain stayed smooth. Those days need to end now. Composite has come of age. The first step is to use a microfill that holds its shine. I am nearly always disappointed at how miserable the composite finishing systems are that I am asked to evaluate, and how disappointing many of the composite finishes that are presented in dental journals and magazines. The folks at Kerr, 3M ESPE, and SS White have commented that they have never seen polishes like the ones I show in my lecture. That's probably because most doctors adopt a manufacturer's "system" and frankly, those systems are mediocre at best and grossly overcomplicated. To learn about my unique mirror polish visit the dentistrytoday.com video library to view Dr. David Clark's 3-step perfect composite polish technique.
|Figure 16. Low magnification, postoperative view. The cord has been removed.
|Figure 17. Close-up, postoperative view. The rubber dam tissue compression combined with the exacting curvature of the Bioclear matrix; together they predictably deliver a regenerated papilla as soon as the rubber dam is removed.
|Figure 18. A happy patient with a younger looking smile. The patient is an anesthesiologist who was extremely grateful to have received this minimally invasive and maximally aesthetic treatment.
Before the Bioclear matrix and a disciplined approach to composite treatment of black triangles, many treatments ended with significant compromise in periodontal health. Many cases debonded soon after placement. Others suffered problems with stain. Nonetheless, our patients are hopeful for a better solution. The interdental papilla serves as both a functional and aesthetic asset. Anatomically ideal interproximal composite shapes that are mirror smooth can serve as a predictable scaffold to regain this valuable gingival architecture. Clean enamel surfaces can be leveraged to permanently retain the restorations. However, the reader is cautioned that to attempt this elective procedure using no magnification, without a strict adherence to dentin detoxification with a blasting appliance, and using a flat matrix, nontreatment or referral is recommended. Our profession can change its thought processes, retrain its hands and expand its armamentarium to perform techniques that were previously impossible.

Video: Rotisserie Turkey Legs
This is my video entry in the Take On Turkey Challenge:
I've been meaning to do video blogs for a while now, but I could never get myself started. A large part of why I signed up for the contest was to force myself to make a video. The contest gave me a deadline, which does wonders for focusing my attention.
What did I learn?
1. Speak up! And smile! I have a bad habit of mumbling when I do public speaking. I had to constantly remind myself to project my voice when I was filming, particularly in the outdoor scenes. And would it kill me to smile a little, once in a while?
*I took a public speaking class a few years ago where they filmed you giving a presentation in front of a group…and then made you watch it. You learn a lot that way, but they told us to watch it once to get all the negative thoughts out, then watch it again to see what you did right. Because that first time through…holy cow. Watching myself on video is painful; I just pick myself apart. "Speak up!…wow, I should lose ten pounds…slow down, you're mumbling…" At least I know I'm going to do it, so I can get past that and look for what went right to include in the video.
2. Watch out for the charcoal chimney! When I set up the grill for indirect heat, I put my chimney on the patio stone I keep next to the grill, like I always do. Then I turned back to the camera and started filming the "Welding gloves are a griller's best friend!" bit. Except it came out "Welding gloves arOUCH!" as I backed into the blazing hot charcoal chimney.
*Even worse, I accidentally deleted the shot while I was cleaning out some other bad shots. I was going to include it as an outtake, but it's gone now. So I have a crescent shaped scar on my right calf, and nothing to show for it other than this story…
3. My kids are cute! But I knew that already. Watch the closing scene of the video to see what I mean.
4. My wife is patient! But I knew that already, too. She was my second unit director, assistant editor, and technical expert. I'm the computer guy in the house, and normally I have to answer the technology questions. But she's had more experience with iMovie than I have. She had to show me the basics so I could get going. Thank you, dear!
*And…we're both opinionated, so she had to put up with me while doing it:
Diane: That section is too jerky. You need a transition in there.
Me: But…that's the effect that I'm looking for! Bang, bang, bang, legs on the spit.
Diane: But it's…(takes a deep breath)…ok, whatever…
5. You can buy your neighbors off with turkey legs! My next door neighbor was power washing his deck at the same time I was shooting this video. I kept trying to film around him; I'd wait for him to stop, then try to get my shot. Between my flubbing my lines, and him starting up again in the middle of them, I was struggling. I went over, explained what I was doing, and asked him if he could take a break. I promised him a turkey leg when I was done, and he quickly agreed. His daughter told me later that they fought over the turkey leg I gave them. So, I have at least one positive review for this recipe…
What do you think? How was my directorial debut? Any other recipes you'd like to see me do in video? Leave them in the comments section below.

Great job on the vid!
Awesome job, Mike. I have rotisserie envy 🙂
Btw, where did you get that tub in which you brined the legs?
– Fellow computer, food, and food gadget junkie
Well done, Mike! Informative, fun, and great productive values! Next on my list is a rotisseried turkey breast, but after that I'm definitely trying these legs.
Thanks, Guys!
For the container, do a search for rubbermaid professional 8 quart food storage. I got a couple at Sam's club, and a couple at amazon.com. Or, find your local restaurant supply company in the yellow pages.
Mike – great job and good luck! The legs look great, I hope you got one in the end! I love what you have done with the video. Right now, I'm averaging one…a year! You may have inspired me to pick up the pace. I hope you win!
mike. looks like you got a good setup there. nice job on the legs. see you at the bbq academy.
Fantastic video Mike. I don't have a rotisserie on my grill but I believe this recipe will work fine in my smoker. I love smoked turkey legs and this will make them that much better!
Nicely done. You look like you've done that before.
Hey where did you get the extra spit forks? I'm wanting more than the original 2 and we have the same rotisserie.
The extra spit forks are from my weber genesis rotisserie. I don't know if you can get them separately from weber, but they are usually good about spare parts. I'd drop them an email.

World War 2 Two II WW2 WWII
HMS Royal Arthur, at Skegness, was one of several assessment camps where new recruits would be assessed, kited out and sent to there various depots there were thousands that went through these camps. Before the war HMS Royal Arthur had been a Butlins holiday camp and after the war the site reverted back, HMS Royal Arthur was then moved to an establishment at Corsham in Wiltshire.
This is photo of Class 224, HMS Royal Arthur.
I am trying to find any information regarding HMS Royal Arthur. As far as I can trace, our photo was taken some time between September and November,1941, because I have my father's Certificate of Service in the Royal Navy and those were the only months he served on HMS Royal Arthur. My father is in the top row, and is fourth from the left, his name is William Ivor Parry Williams.
This is a photo of class 194.
I have been trying to find out exactly what my dad did in the war. He is in the photo 3rd from left 2nd row from the front. His name was Edmund John Cruise. Any information would be appreciated.
Does anyone remember Reginald Back, who was at royal arthur until february 1940. He died in 1946 just after leaving the navy. My mother his sister never met her brother Reginald because when young the family was broken up some adopted, Reginald went into banardos home, when she traced him he was already dead, she has longed to know more about him, maybe even see what he looked like. Please if anyone could help I would be so grateful.
My father Josephus Soeters was at HMS Royal Arthur during the following dates 21 june 1945 - 01 july 1945 from the Duth Navy.
Willem Soeters
I am researching my late father's Naval career but with little success. The facts I have are sketchy and disjointed. He enlisted in 1941, sailed from somewhere in Scotland early 1942, was hospitalised with pneumonia and shore-based for a year in Durban (RSA) and demobbed late in 1945 with the rank of PO, possibly CPO, in Supply. I have a feeling that his last ship was the VALIANT. However I can verify that he was stationed at ROYAL ARTHUR. I have two photographs both have about 40 men standing in three rows with a fourth row seated at the front. In the middle of which are two "peaked caps" behind a life belt bearing the inscription "HMS ROYAL ARTHUR". In the middle of this is the notation "Class 226" on one and "Class 238" on the other. In addition on the back of the former are 37 signatures with home towns. My father is one of the "peaked caps" on each photograph.
My Brother, James Lovatt, was an ordinary telegraphist on HMS Royal Arthur from 13.04.1942 to 21.12.1942. Jim died 13th December 1984 aged 62.

My Uncle Roland Clifford Harman (my mother's brother) was born in Swindon in 1921. He died at home in Swindon on 28.06.1945 six months after being invalided out of the Fleet Air Arm of the Royal Navy. He was at HMS Royal Arthur in 1941, Class A33, but this is all I know about him except that he did see active service during World War II which gave rise to his injuries and ultimate early death at just 24 years of age.

This is a photograph of an intake of recruits for the RN Sick Berth Staff taken on the 4th September 1941 when I was sent to HMS Royal Arthur and joined Class 48.
I have a number of wartime photographs of service in the Navy including service as SBA on HMS Southdown (Hunt Class destroyer), as Leading SBA at HMS Northney 4, and as SBPO on the escort carrier HMS Ranee which saw service in the Pacific.

Way back in 1943, I, along with another 99 RAF trainee Wireless operators found ourselves at Royal Arthur after being forcibly volunteered for the Royal Navy. We were paraded in the Winter Gardens, Blackpool and asked to volunteer for the Navy. The Groopy gave us a pep talk about us going to uphold the honour of the RAF and called for volunteers. He only got a handful so walked down our ranks and told every third row they were in the Navy. As I was RAFVR I went to the orderly room and complained bitterly to a WO. who said ok lad I will see you get your discharge and make bloody sure your called up into the Pioneer Corps. Needless to say, I became a very unenthusiastic sailor very soon after.
Arriving at Skegness in RAF uniform we were greeted like VIP's and began to think this Navy lark's not so bad after all. We were allocated chalets and I was in Gloucester house which turned out to be the mess hall where we ate and assembled for training, etc. then we were given the rest ot the day off. After settling in to the 'hut" my room mate and I decided to explore the camp. Hardly had we exited the door when we heard a maniac yelling put that pipe out. As we were smoking fags we knew he could not mean us. How wrong we were. He caught up with us and almost bursting a blood vessel yelled right in our ears PUT THAT BLOODY PIPE OUT. I innocently said I am not smoking a pipe and to this day I believe I saw steam coming out of his ears when he demanded my watch card and told me I was on a charge for insubordination. Still in my well loved RAF uniform, next day, I paraded before some funny fella called "jimmy the one" and I still pleaded that I was only smoking a ciggy and that did not seem to please him at all and the outcome was I was given 10 days number Eleven's and it was on caps about turn quick march and once outside I asked this excitable petty officer what number 11's is and all he would tell me was that I would soon find out in the morning.

Inside Darrell Holland's Long Range Shooting School
Another aspect of shooting that can be easily overlooked is good follow through. Depending on the caliber and bullet you are shooting, after the trigger is tripped, the bullet will remain in the barrel for approximately .024 seconds and the rifle will recoil something like 3/8 of an inch. It is crucial that the shooter keep consistent control or tracking of the rifle during this time frame. The rifle must recoil uninterrupted for 3/8 of an inch for the shot to be good. If the shooter flinches, bi-pod recoils over a rock, or if one is using the rear bag improperly this can cause poorly placed shot. Smooth uninterrupted tracking of the rifle from ignition to impact is essential for accurate long-range shooting.
Bolt manipulation skills were an area I really enjoyed watching Darrell teach. His style is smooth, fast, and your head never leaves the stock. This is important in hunting because the animal does not always drop immediately, and a second shot may be required. When engaging multiple targets, proper bolt manipulation is the edge you want if you are competing or if your work requires you to protect others.
You will walk away with a good understanding of the Milliradian and Minute of Angle and will be able to reticle-range targets with your scope. The wind may not be your friend, but you will be given the tools to better understand it and to be able to dope it correctly. The student is also given a basic understanding of how bullet flight is affected by temperature, shooting at up/down angles, barometric pressure, and altitude. These concepts are all taken into consideration in a simple easy to understand way. Besides being presented with all the good information, you will also get to put the principles into practice. In so doing, you will enjoy the beautiful sound of your bullet ringing steel, and it will be music to your ears.
One cannot consider long range hunting without spending some time covering hunting ethics. Each student is encouraged to know their limitations with equipment, skill levels, and the conditions they find themselves in. There is a good amount of humor and hunting wisdom thrown in with stories to keep things interesting.
Coffee is always available in the classroom for those who need to hook up to the caffeine intravenously via the coffee cup. Lunch is eaten together as a group and is very enjoyable, both for the food and fellowship. There was always a spirit of teamwork and mutual encouragement in the two schools I helped with. You will make new friends, get to see and shoot some nice rigs, and have a lot of fun.
Darrell has a servant heart and gives himself completely to his students. I highly recommend Hollands Long Range Shooting School. If you want to improve your long range shooting skills in the field for when that moment of truth comes, I would encourage you to give Darrell a call (541) 439-5155 or check out his website:
When I asked him if he would be willing to open his school for specialty handgun shooters when I was there, his response was, Yes! Now, if I can get him to shoot a specialty pistol at long-range. Actually, he did this past spring and made a great 600-yard shot...of course!
Ernie Bishop resides in Gillette, Wyoming, where he serves as a preacher. He enjoys long range hunting for varmints and big game with handguns. Ernie also uses his specialty handguns in tactical style matches and in 1,000 yard competitions once or twice a year.

SexyLook Hello Kitty Masks
Platinum + White Rose Brightening Double Lifting, Pink Cherry Moisture Double Lifting, Amethyst Polyphenols Hydrating Double Lifting Mask.

My Beauty Diary Masks
Chocolate Truffle, Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing
***ingredient lists***
I only chose these few, since I've the others she bought. Wanna try 'em all soon! :P
I bought this Essence Nail Art Express Dry Drops coz it's just a fraction of the price of Seche Vite. I think it was $3.90 (8ml) if I remember correctly. Hope it works well...
The dark colored one (Anna Sui Lip Gloss R 550) looks not bad on me, me thinks :P
Here are the swatches of R 550 & C 302. They aren't too sticky, which sits comfortably on the lips. Pretty moisturizing, I would say. Ooo btw... they've the signature Anna Sui rose scent. Me loves!

The Art of Public Speaking HTML version
The event which we commemorate is all-important, not merely in our own annals, but in those of the world.
The sententious English poet has declared that "the proper study of mankind is man," and of all inquiries of a
temporal nature, the history of our fellow-beings is unquestionably among the most interesting. But not all the
chapters of human history are alike important. The annals of our race have been filled up with incidents which
concern not, or at least ought not to concern, the great company of mankind. History, as it has often been
written, is the genealogy of princes, the field-book of conquerors; and the fortunes of our fellow-men have
been treated only so far as they have been affected by the influence of the great masters and destroyers of our
race. Such history is, I will not say a worthless study, for it is necessary for us to know the dark side as well as
the bright side of our condition. But it is a melancholy study which fills the bosom of the philanthropist and
the friend of liberty with sorrow.
But the history of liberty--the history of men struggling to be free--the history of men who have acquired and
are exercising their freedom--the history of those great movements in the world, by which liberty has been
established and perpetuated, forms a subject which we cannot contemplate too closely. This is the real history
of man, of the human family, of rational immortal beings....
The trial of adversity was theirs; the trial of prosperity is ours. Let us meet it as men who know their duty and
prize their blessings. Our position is the most enviable, the most responsible, which men can fill. If this
generation does its duty, the cause of constitutional freedom is safe. If we fail--if we fail--not only do we
defraud our children of the inheritance which we received from our fathers, but we blast the hopes of the
friends of liberty throughout our continent, throughout Europe, throughout the world, to the end of time.
History is not without her examples of hard-fought fields, where the banner of liberty has floated triumphantly
on the wildest storm of battle. She is without her examples of a people by whom the dear-bought treasure has
been wisely employed and safely handed down. The eyes of the world are turned for that example to us....
Let us, then, as we assemble on the birthday of the nation, as we gather upon the green turf, once wet with
precious blood--let us devote ourselves to the sacred cause of constitutional liberty! Let us abjure the interests
and passions which divide the great family of American freemen! Let the rage of party spirit sleep to-day! Let
us resolve that our children shall have cause to bless the memory of their fathers, as we have cause to bless the
memory of ours!

Sizzling beef with celery.
Photo: Natalie Boog
All over Sydney and beyond, you can now find Thai, Malaysian, Vietnamese, Japanese and regional Chinese cuisines lending themselves happily to a lighter, brighter, more contemporary style of cooking. Our pioneering modern Asian chefs have set a fast pace, updating Asian classics and reinventing their own Chinatown favourites to create new ones.
So eat out all you like, but don't forget those same techniques, ideas and superior produce that make dining out so much fun, also apply at home for a meal that's as simple or as sophisticated as any out on the town.
Sizzling beef with celery
Celery, green onions and shredded lettuce lighten this tender beef and mushroom stir-fry.
6 dried shiitake mushrooms
250g good steak, finely sliced
2cm knob ginger, finely shredded
4 celery stalks
2 tbsp vegetable oil
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
1/2 iceberg lettuce, shredded
3 green onions, finely chopped
For the marinade
2 tbsp rice wine or dry sherry
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tbsp cornflour
Soak the mushrooms in hot water for 30 minutes. Toss beef and ginger with the marinade ingredients. Set aside for 30 mins.
Finely slice the celery on the diagonal. Drain the mushrooms, reserving the water, and finely slice, discarding the stalks.
Heat the oil in a wok or frypan until shimmering, add the beef and its marinade and stir-fry for 2 mins until well-coloured. Add the celery, mushrooms, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil and 100ml of the strained mushroom water, and stir-fry for 3-4 mins. Add the shredded lettuce and green onions, toss through, and serve hot, with rice.
Serves 4.
Picnic chicken
Make a wild, juicy dressing of ginger, chilli, vinegar and garlic for this crisp-skinned roasted chicken.
3 to 4 chicken marylands
2 tbsp vegetable oil
Sea salt and pepper
2.5cm knob ginger, peeled
1 red capsicum
1 small long red chilli
4 green onions
1 tbsp sesame oil
4 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp soft brown sugar
1 tbsp rice vinegar
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tbsp coriander leaves
Preheat oven to 200C. Brush the chicken with a little of the oil, season well and bake for 40 minutes or until crisp-skinned and cooked through. Cool for 15 mins then remove the meat from the bones and roughly chop, keeping the skin on.
Meanwhile, cut the ginger into very fine matchsticks and the red capsicum into thin matchsticks. Finely slice the chilli and green onions on the diagonal. Mix the vegetable and sesame oils, salt, pepper, soy sauce, sugar, vinegar and garlic. Toss the still-warm chicken in the dressing and taste - it should be sweet yet sharp. Add the ginger, capsicum, chilli, green onions and coriander, toss lightly and serve warm with plenty of rice on the side.
Serves 4.
Thai meatball and herb soup
For the pork balls
1 tbsp jasmine rice
400g minced pork
2 garlic cloves, crushed
60g water chestnuts, finely chopped
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1 tbsp fish sauce
2 tbsp coriander leaves
1 small red chilli, sliced
For the soup
1.2 litres light chicken stock
2 tsp sugar
200g dried rice vermicelli, cooked
2 tbsp Thai fish sauce
2 tbsp lime juice
2 tbsp torn coriander leaves
2 tbsp torn fresh mint or Thai basil
For the pork balls
Toast the rice in a dry frypan until it starts to tan, then grind or pound into a coarse powder. In a food processor, combine ground rice with pork, garlic, water chestnuts, salt, sugar, fish sauce and coriander and half the sliced chilli and whiz to a paste. Roll the mixture into 20 walnut-sized balls.
For the soup
Heat the chicken stock, sugar and remaining chilli in a saucepan. Add the pork balls and simmer for 6 minutes, skimming meticulously. Add the vermicelli, fish sauce and lime juice and heat through.
Scatter with the coriander and mint and serve.
Serves 4.

I went to our local public library today. Actually the entire family went to the library. My wife and I signed up for membership mainly so that my sons could start borrowing books to read. Jamie is a voracious reader even by my standards and there's no way I could keep him in new books without going broke.
It's been years since I was a library member. As a child I was a regular visitor to the library and it was that as much as anything else that fed my love of fantasy and science fiction. But as an teenager and then adult I moved to buying my own books, and more recently I started converting my book collection to ebooks (it's just so nice to have all those books with me on my phone).
There are good reasons to encourage the purchase of books, particularly in the USA where the library system doesn't pay royalties on number of check outs of a book. But I think that libraries are the second most effective method of instilling a love of reading in children. The most effective is simply having books everywhere in your house.
It was interesting to go into this library. In many ways it was just like the library I frequented as a child. And that's not a bad thing. Despite incredible funding pressure, the public library is a hold out against the rampant consumerism of almost any other building you go into.
Beyond the surface familiarity though there are changes going on. Libraries are redefining themselves slowly. Their job now is not purely to provide access to books. It's to provide access to information. There were several computers available for use; audio books, magazines and DVDs could be rented. The format is no longer the point. And while this library hasn't jumped aboard yet, some libraries are already experimenting with e-book lending.
Even though I'm in a position where I can buy books pretty much whenever I wish and I think it's important to do so to support less popular authors, I've been reminded how important it is to also support the library system. And by support I don't just mean monetary, although that is much needed, but also to ensure that their ability to lend books is not eroded by greedy companies.

Purchasing a 02 Focus
Hey guys,
I recently crashed my 05 ZX4 and have found a 02 SVT that I am going to look at and probably pick up tonight. Anyone have any thoughts on these or know any general problems? I have been looking for a SVT for years some specs on the car are that it is 02 137xxx on it bone stock new tires new clutch and no problems. I work for Ford but havent seen many SVT's come through so just checking the forums. Thanks for any opinions thoughts anything like that. Also the asking price is 4500. Images of vehicle will be attached.http://i1299.photobucket.com/albums/...psa1c7dd81.jpg
Looks awesome, and definitely a fair price, IMHO. Make sure to ask for the maintenance history, oil changes and whatnot. I'd drive the heck out of it!
ask about the timing belt make sure it has been done cause ford scheduled it at 120k but have been known to snap i changed the original one on my svt at 112 and was playing with tensioner and it snapped yea i saw that focus on cl if i didnt have mine and lived in that area would have looked at it but svts are far and few between up here in wisconsin ive seen like only like a hand full of them not including mine lol
Thanks Guys. I just got her home and she is amazing. I took her for a test drive fell in love. The car has no problems. It is a previous 1 owner car and he had records for everything from the day it was purchased. The Timing belt was replaced at about 111xxx. I know what you mean about the SVT's being a hard breed to find in Wisconsin. I know of maybe 3 or 4 other people here that own them other than you and I. Thanks for the advice and tips and so fourth. I will post some more pictures tomorrow when I am at work. Time to clean her up, oil change, trans, motor, and coolant flush, and tire rotation.
Glad to hear that you are liking it! Cant wait to see the pics
Congrats on finding such a well maintained SVT focus.
one of the best colors IMO. Congrats!
Hey guys sorry it has been a few days since I posted any pictures had a family emergency come up with my Grandfather Larry ending up in ICU. I have gotten some down time from work and everything else so here are a few new pics some are in my shop some are outside. So far the car is treating me wonderfully and have even started adding some basic bolt on's along with upgrading to the Baer 13 inch swap which should be done here in the next few days here are some of the current pics. http://i1299.photobucket.com/albums/...ps92ac132b.jpg
Man... Makin me jealous! If I had known more about the focus when I bought mine, I definitely would have tried to find an SVT.
Now, I may be a bit biased... But have you considered painting the wheels white?
And I hope your grandpa is feeling better!
Nice clean SVT definitely. Those are becoming harder to find like that.

(New York City, NY) Yesterday's not guilty verdict in the trial of George Zimmerman was tragic and spotlights the need to change the gun laws that made Trayvon Martin's death and George Zimmerman's acquittal possible. The February 2012 shooting by an armed George Zimmerman of the unarmed teenager was a direct result of Florida's "Stand Your Ground" law that legalizes vigilante homicide and enables and encourages America's culture of violence.
Twenty-five states, including Florida, have "Stand Your Ground" laws with provisions that generally allow the use of deadly force in self-defense with no duty to retreat when outside the home. According to the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, since Florida passed its law in 2005, and other states have followed suit, the FBI has reported a steady increase in "justifiable homicides" around the country, from 238 in 2006 to 278 in 2010, despite the fact that violent crime fell by 13.2% during the same period.
In addition, states with weak concealed carry (CCW) handgun laws like Florida allow individuals like George Zimmerman, who was previously charged with resisting arrest by a police officer and had a restraining order for domestic violence, to continue to carry a hidden loaded handgun in public.
Every state now has some form of CCW law. But states like New York have much tighter requirements for obtaining conceal carry permits than states like Florida. In April, the US Senate narrowly defeated an amendment that would have forced states that issue CCW permits to recognize every other state's permits, eviscerating state authority to restrict who may carry guns within their borders. Leah Gunn Barrett, NYAGV's Executive Director said, "The Trayvon Martin case is not an isolated one. We must work to tighten conceal carry laws and to roll back "Stand Your Ground" laws. If George Zimmerman had not brought a concealed handgun into the confrontation with Trayvon Martin, a confrontation George Zimmerman provoked, the teenager would still be alive. Guns in volatile social situations only lead to more death and tragedy."

Well, mommy got a baby pool for Baci and Fungi to cool off in this summer. She just knew that Romeo and I would hate it since we don't like getting wet or taking a bath. She put water in it yesterday and Fungi just looked at it like he had no clue what to do with it. I think he is thinking it's just a huge water dish! BOL!
I'm sure he'll figure it out soon enough.
When daddy went outside with Romeo, Baci and me, Baci hopped in then back out again a few times. She likes it but she was more interested in the hose that daddy was spraying the bricks with in our yard. She kept attacking the water coming out of the hose.
Romeo looked in it and ran! Big baby!!
The real surprise to my pawrents was when I hopped in and splashed around in it a little. I love it!!! This summer is gonna be so much fun!

Supervisors approve I-10 bypass plan
Plan includes extending existing frontage roads
PALM DESERT, Calif. - Several recent traffic jams on Interstate 10 have tied up traffic through the San Gorgonio Pass and left motorists stranded for hours.
In order to alleviate the problem, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday agreed to partner with state agencies and local cities to alleviate the problem.
One of the incidents occurred back in February when Cal Trans road work brought westbound traffic to a stand-still between Palm Springs and Banning.
Motorists had no where to turn because of a lack of detours along the 19-mile stretch of the interstate.
To remedy the problem, the county plans to extend four sections of existing roads next to the freeway to serve as detour routes.
The plan also calls for installing three gates in the medians so traffic can be turned around and message signs will go up, warning motorists to exit due to trouble ahead.
"CVAG is a big supporter of the I-10 bypass plan and we've had some major incidents on I-10 over the years where I-10 has been closed for three or four or 12 hours, and if that happens in the middle of the summer people could die," said Tom Kirk, the executive director of the Coachella Valley Association of Governments.
Although no money has been authorized for the bypass project, the county hopes to complete the improvements within five years.

I'm currently looking for a guild or a team that raids between the hours of 8:30am and 11:30am EST (10:30pm-1:30am Sydney time). I work the night shift and I'm getting fed up with PUGs. About me - I'm a mature (mostly) adult that has been playing WoW since 2008, mostly on my Shadow Priest, but at one time had 1 of every class at max level (Lvl. 80 - I was deployed and had too much time on my hands.) I have a good amount of raiding experience. For current content I'm 14/14 in LFR and Flex (Big whoop, I know) but due to my work schedule have only cleared 10/14 on normal. I started raiding in WotLK when Naxx 25 was progression and continued into Ulduar, TOC/ToGC and ICC as a fairly hardcore raider. I took a break from WoW prior to Cataclysm release and when I came back, I was strictly PVPing. I came back when MoP dropped but took another break shortly after hitting 90. Then came back AGAIN a few weeks before SoO dropped. When it comes to raiding, I know what I'm doing, if I don't, I ask or YouTube/Read guides of the fights. I know my class, I show up on time and prepared to pull. I like a no nonsense raid style, lets get in, do work and have fun afterwards. Please message me if your guild or team is a good fit. I am willing to transfer servers. Please contact me - Lets kill some stuff.last updated 2 years ago

Dan Mekler has come a long way from running a service station in inner Sydney. Now he wants to take on the big names in the rental car business.
Creating a rental car company for Mekler was a natural extension to selling petrol.
He started out in 1989 with two old cars he left parked in the yard - a Holden Ute and Ford Laser - which he used to rent out to passing tourists.
Soon the business grew and today he has created Red Spot Car Rentals with a national fleet of 800 cars.
His next push is to expand the brand's presence in Melbourne, including opening an outlet at Tullamarine.
Mekler is currently in negotiations with Melbourne Airport officials in an attempt to establish a retail outlet alongside the well-known names in car rental at the airport and hopes to know in the coming month whether he can open by March.
"Our five-year plan includes having a representation at every airport terminal in Australia as well as having a city presence in every capital," he said.
"We believe this will stimulate greater competition in the on-airport car rental market."
Red Spot already has offices in Sydney and at Sydney Airport, city branches in Melbourne and Brisbane, and an agency in Cairns.
In addition, the company licenses more than 30 independent car rental companies based in regional Australia to use the Red Spot name.
Red Spot seems to be intent on following the discount airlines to help foster its growth, offering discounts to consumers who turn to the internet to book cars.
At the age of 42, Dan Mekler hopes that after 15 years slowly building up his car rental company he is now on the cusp of taking on the major players.
"We're Australian owned and operated and we're not a franchise of a major international conglomerate. We don't have expensive reward programs, we just compete on price," he said.
"We've got much lower cost structures than our competitors which allows us to cater for the economy market.
"We're using the Virgin Blue model to plan for the future," he said.

Sobriety checkpoint announced
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WTVN) --Columbus Police will conduct a sobriety checkpoint in the northeast part of the city Friday night into Saturday morning.
It will be on North Hamilton Rd. and Menerey Lane, north of E. Dublin-Granville Rd., starting at 9 p.m. and continuing until 3 a.m.
"Since June, there have been two fatal crashes within two miles of this checkpoint location. Both of those crashes involved an impaired driver," said Columbus Police Traffic Bureau Sergeant Michael Smith.
Smith noted crashes at one nearby intersection, North Hamilton and Central College Roads, involved an impaired driver 25 percent of the time. That intersection is also within two miles of the Friday checkpoint location.

SANTA CRUZ -- The future of the Monterey Bay region was the focus of a public workshop Thursday with local residents invited to share a vision of how they hope to get around by 2035 -- whether by car, bike, bus, rail or another form of public transit.
The meeting, held at the Santa Cruz Police Department's community room with about 40 participants, was led by a consultant hired by the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments.
AMBAG is conducting a series of public workshops throughout Santa Cruz, Monterey and San Benito counties to gather input on a regional transportation plan known as "Moving Forward Monterey Bay."
Bill Wiseman of Marina-based RBF Consulting guided the group through discussions largely related to individual commuting habits with questions such as "If you didn't drive, how did you get there," and "What's stopping you from walking, bicycling or taking transit?"
Ideas were encouraged that would get more people to cut back on the use of single-occupancy vehicles and help meet a statewide mandate to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the coming years.
"We're looking at the long-term big picture," Wiseman said. "Where should we fund transportation projects? What should we prioritize?"
Longtime Santa Cruz resident Peter Kennedy, a Santa Cruz planning commissioner, said he strongly agrees with the regional approach under way by AMBAG to improve transportation alternatives across the Monterey Bay.
"The climate stuff is a real concern," Kennedy said. "I'm so interested in how transportation, housing and job all wrap up together. I'm particularly interested in carbon neutrality."
Santa Cruz Public Works Director Mark Dettle said getting people out of their cars requires a much different transportation infrastructure than what is available in Santa Cruz County. In addition, he said, folks would need to make a major mind shift if they were to give up daily driving.
Dettle said the motivation not to drive in Santa Cruz is lacking compared with larger cities such as San Francisco and New York where the cost of parking is many times higher than what it is here.
"When it costs $18 to park in San Francisco compared with a $2 BART ride, the choice is easy," he said. "(In Santa Cruz), we're geared toward providing easy access to the automobile. I don't think the incentive or cost economics is there yet."
Several people in the audience criticized the regional approach to transportation planning and voiced concern that the process was an attempt by the government to infringe on individual liberties.
Moving Forward Monterey Bay is part of a multiagency collaboration to design a transportation plan that promotes a new way of thinking in where people live, how they travel and where jobs should be located.
According to AMBAG projections, the tri-county area by 2035 will see a population increase of more than 150,000 people, 40,000 more housing units and 65,000 additional jobs.

When Ella Tambussi Grasso ran for governor of Connecticut in 1974, she had not lost an election since she was first voted into the state's General Assembly in 1952. The people of Connecticut chose her as the nation's first woman to be elected governor in her own right--the capstone of a long and successful career dedicated to public service, effective government, and the democratic process. During her tenure as governor, Grasso's leadership was tested in the face of fiscal problems, state layoffs, and budget shortfalls. The daughter of Italian immigrants, she endeared herself to her constituents during the great Blizzard of 1978, when she stayed at the State Armory around the clock to direct emergency operations and make frequent television appearances.

Another gripe is the huge power block needed. You can't actually use this machine on your lap as it would block off the cooling vents for the graphics cards, so you need to properly sit it on a desk. If you tried to use it on the train you'd take up most of a table on a train, if not most of the train. Factor in its weight and this is about as portable as a small desktop. Wouldn't it have been better if AJP just removed the battery and made this mains operated only?
On the plus side, the 19in display is pleasant to use and the notebook isn't very noisy at all, (which you wouldn't expect of an SLI notebook).
Using our proprietary automated benchmarking suite, aptly dubbed "SpodeMark 3D", I ran Call of Duty 2, Counter Strike: Source, Quake 4, Battlefield 2 and 3DMark 06. Bar 3DMark06, these all run using our in-house pre-recorded timedemos in the most intense sections of each game I could find. Each setting is run three times and the average is taken, for reproducible and accurate results.
I ran each game test at 1,280 x 1,024 and the native 1,680 x 1,050 each at 0x FSAA with trilinear filtering, 2x FSAA with 4x AF and 4x FSAA with 8x AF.
We used the driver that came with the notebook, which was ForceWare 83.90. AJP has been sneaky enough to set the quality balance setting to "performance" which increases performance while sacrificing image quality. We put this back to "quality" which is the default setting.
We ran SpodeMark with both SLI on and off, to see how much improvement was gained by having a second card. We also compared to the recently reviewed Mesh X-treme FX-60 which uses two 7800 GTs in SLI. This is not a particularly good example of a gaming machine, but it also came with a native 1,680 x 1,050 panel so felt it would be a good comparison.
In our own subjective tests, we found game play to be pretty good – although there were some possible timing issues as despite high frame rates, playback seemed a little jerky. We are hoping (and have been told) this will be covered in a future driver release.
Call of Duty 2 has really good optimizations for multi-GPU setups and it shows in our results, with over 50 per cent improvement in performance. Steaming ahead though, is the Mesh system – possibly due to Call of Duty 2's optimizations for dual-core machines.

Friday Memo: Divorce poll … Russia … Robbers
Want a divorce? You'd have to wait longer to get one under a bill introduced in Olympia. The proposed law would extend the waiting period from 90 days to a year. Sponsors say divorce can spawn all sorts of trouble, including juvenile delinquency, poorer scholastic achievement and poverty. Do you think the change is a good idea? Vote in our poll.
That meteor over Russia: OK, it isn't local, we know, but have you seen the photos and videos? And people were injured from the darn thing. Some folks thought the world was coming to an end. Didn't a giant meteor kill off the dinosaurs?
Crips gang from L.A. responsible for Kirkland bank robbery? Federal prosecutors say members of the Four-Tre Crips gang were behind the Kirkland robbery and other stickups around the country last year. The gangsters were rounded up in Olympia when they tried to board a bus for Los Angeles. A bus as a getaway vehicle. Isn't that something. KING5 has the story.
Men's college basketball is good, and not so good: The Zags are on a roll, but the UW Dawgs are so-so and the poor Cougs, well, to say they are struggling is perhaps generous. Just saying.

I just finished the knitting portion of my booga bag. Now I'm supposed to cast off and I'm freaking out!! :shock: Do I follow the same directions as a usual cast off or is there something else I need to do to cast off of a circular needle? Help please. I'm going to leave it alone until I get some response.
You cast off as you always do....
I just casted-off from circs for the first time myself....how FUNNY that I had the same twinge of "does this work the same"??
Thanks Kelly! I'll give it a go.
I've heard a lot of mention about a "booga bag" on the forum, but I haven't seen a pic. What kind of bag is it? Is there a link to the pattern?
http://www.blacksheepbags.com/booga_bag.html This is the link to the booga bag pattern. It is in the free patterns section of this website.
oooo -- pretty bag! However, I was puzzled just reading the instructions!! do you cast off from the main piece and then pick up stitches? How do you pick up stitches if the piece is still on the circs? Hmmm -- maybe it is one of those patterns that make more sense as you actually do the knitting.
It does make more sense as you're knitting it. Before you pick up the stitches, even though you're using circular needles, you're knitting flat. So you pick up stitches as normal and THEN you start knitting in the round. My problem was figuring out HOW/Where to start to pick up the stitches but then I figured it out.
I did the cast off and it went great. Kind of cool how it happens on a circular, actually. Now I'm onto the i-cord and it's going well, although slowly. I'm nervous about the actual felting process.

Propane hot water heater
My 6 yr old propane hot water heater doesn't ignite reliably. The pilot is on, there is plenty of propane, the exhaust blower is working fine. The igniter even works fine when I power cycle the unit.
Symptom is: Once every couple of weeks, we notice the water is only lukewarm. I go downstairs to the water heater, and find the exhaust blower going, the pilot on, but no ignition of main burner. Seems like it must have been in that mode for hours. I think the thermostat must be going bad. When I unplug AC power to the unit, and replug, the igniter will ignite the main burner and I am OK again for another week or so, until the same symptom reappears.
Any ideas? Bad thermostat? Or do you think it is a faulty gas valve?
Check the thermocoupler.
how do I do this? do you mean thermocouple?
You will find a small copper line comming off the valve body. It will run to where your pilot is. Their is a probe that sticks in the pilotlight. This copper line and probe is what you want.

The water inlet valve on your refrigerator allows water to enter the ice maker and water dispenser. If your ice maker or water dispenser is not functioning properly, or you notice a leak, you may need to replace the single outlet valve. This single outlet valve has 1/4-inch compressions fittings and is intended for use with refrigerators that make crescent-shaped ice cubes. As per the manufacturer, this valve has a new quick connection. You must cut the retaining nut off your current plastic water line, and gently push it into the new valve. Be sure to disconnect the water and power sources from the refrigerator before you begin this repair.
This part works with the following brands: GE, Hotpoint & KENMORE®.
This part fixes the following symptoms:
1st - checked water supply - old valve in water line was closed with sediment.2nd - replaced water line valve and reconnected copper tubing about 1 hour3rd. removed single outlet valve and installed the new part - about 15 minutesEverything went well and was very easy.Unfortunately, the ice maker still does not work.Still trying to understand what is wrong.
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
My Son removed two screws, electric plug and two (2) compresion nuts. He had to bend the bracket to fit, then replace it, in reverse order except the filler tube on the new valve was of a "stabb-in" type. Job was a piece of cake and this small project, solved all our problems with the Ice maker.
Three easy steps, take off old part then all you do is tighten nut on one end of part and then just push other end of pipe down in slot. Did half to remove nut off the top end of tube very simple to do
Shut the water off, removed two screws,removed the inlet, from the water valve then the line from the valve to the ice maker. Then you reverce these steps and you are done. The shipping time was the best I have ever seen. Thanks
part arrived on schedule,
First i shut the water valve off going to the fridge, I then removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires. Then i took the water line loose to the element, reverse the prosses and put all back on new element and installed,
Unhooked power to valveRemoved old valve by taking out 2 screws.Used adjustable wrench to remove water lines. Then reversed and hooked everything back up
i replace the IM3 with a upgrade to the IM6 ice maker. a simple swap and easy to install. with very good instructions.
